What is the maximum theoretical efficiency possible for a heat engine operating between a reservoir in which ice and water coexi

st, and a reservoir in which water and steam coexist? The pressure is constant at 1.0 atmosphere for both reservoirs.

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\,\%

calculate the volume occupied by 10g of propane gas, under normal conditions of temperature and pressure
andriy [413]

Answer:

5.5 L

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 10 g of propane gas</u> (C₃H₈) to moles, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 10 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 0.23 mol

Then we <u>use the PV=nRT formula</u>, where:

  • P = 1 atm & T = 293 K (This are normal conditions of T and P)
  • n = 0.23 mol
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • V = ?

1 atm * V = 0.23 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 293 K

  • V = 5.5 L

How many moles of neon atoms are there in a neon sign that has 2.4 * 20^ 24 atoms of neon? *
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

4 moles of neon

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of neon = ?

Number of atoms of neon = 2.4×10²⁴ atoms

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For given neon atoms:

1 mol =  6.022 × 10²³ atoms

2.4×10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.4×10¹ mol = 4 mol
