Fusing helium into heavier elements requires extreme pressure and temperature. However red dwarfs' gravity is simply not enough to bring helium atom close enough to each other for fusion to occur. Therefore, red dwarfs not able to fuse helium to heavier elements.☺

The combustion of ethyne, shown below unbalance, produces heat which can be used to weld metals:
Andreyy89

Answer:

3.69 g

Explanation:

Given that:

The mass m = 325 g

The change in temperature ΔT = ( 1540 - 165)° C

= 1375 ° C

Heat capacity c_p = 0.490 J/g°C

The amount of heat required:

q = mcΔT

q =  325 × 0.490 × 1375

q = 218968.75 J

q = 218.97 kJ

The equation for the reaction is expressed as:

C_2H_{2(g)} + 5O_{2(g)} \to 2CO_{2(g)} + H_2O_{(g)}   \ \   \ \ \  \Delta H^o_{reaction} = -1544 \ kJ

Then,

1 mole of the ethyne is equal to 26 g of ethyne required for 1544 kJ heat.

Thus, for 218.97 kJ, the amount of ethyne gas required will be:

= \dfrac{26 \ g}{1544 \ kJ} \times 218.97 \ kJ

= 3.69 g

How many kilocalories are required to increase the temperature of 15.6 g of iron from 122 °c to 355 °c. the specific heat of iro
Dmitriy789 [7]

Heat require to boil 15.6 g iron from 122 C0to 355 C0 whereas,

Q = m s dT

Where, m is mass of iron

s is specific heat of iron

d T is change in temperature in celcius

= 15.6 g * 0.45 J /g /C * (355 - 122)  = 1.63 * 10^3 J

If  

1 cal = 4.2 J

Then,  

Q = (1.63 * 10^3) /4.2 = 0.389 K cal

Thus 0.389 k cal of enrgy  is required by a 15.6 g Fe to reach to 355 C^0
