Answer:

\eta_{th} = 26.8\,\%

Explanation:

The maximum theoretical efficiency for a heat engine is given by the Carnot's Cycle. The temperatures of the hot reservoir and the cold reservoir at 1.0 atmosphere are 373.15 K and 273.15 K, respectively. Then:

\eta_{th} = \left(1 - \frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}}  \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = \left(1-\frac{273.15\,K}{373.15\,K}  \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = 26.8\,\%

Katarina [22]

Answer:

mark me as the brainliest

Explanation:

Fossils are the preserved remains, or traces of remains, of ancient organisms. Fossils are not the remains of the organism itself! They are rocks. A fossil can preserve an entire organism or just part of one. Bones, shells, feathers, and leaves can all become fossils.

Complete the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the epoxide in alcohol by adding any missing atoms, bonds, charges,
Sauron [17]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

You are missing the structure, therefore, I will do an example with one that I found on another place to try to explain.

This acid mechanism always involves carbocations, and positive charges, never negative because we are in acidic mediums.

In the first step, the lone pairs of the oxigen from the epoxide, substract one hydrogen of the reactant.

Second step, the lone pairs of the oxygen from the reactant, do a nucleophylic attack to the carbon of the epoxide. In this case, it will do it to the most substitued carbon.

Then, in the third step by acid base equilibrium, the hydrogen from the reactant that attacked, is substracted from the molecule by a molecule of water (We are in acid medium, therefore, there is traces of water) and the final structure is formed.

Check picture for mechanism:
