First, we have to get:
1- The heat required to increase T of ice from -50 to 0 °C:
according to q formula:
q1 = m*C*ΔT
when m is the mass of ice = mol * molar mass
= 1 mol * 18 mol/g
= 18 g
and C is the specific heat capacity of ice = 2.09 J/g-K
and ΔT change in temperature = 0- (-50) = 50°C
by substitution:
∴q1 = 18 g * 2.09 J/g-K *50°C
= 1881 J = 1.881 KJ
2- the heat required to melt this mass of ice is :
q2 = n*ΔHfus
when n is the number of moles of ice = 1 mol
and ΔHfus = 6.01 KJ/mol
by substitution:
q2 = 1 mol * 6.01 KJ/mol
= 6.01 KJ
3- the heat required to increase the water temperature from 0°C to 60 °C is:
q3 = m*C*ΔT
when m is the mass of water = 18 g
C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g-K
ΔT is the change of Temperature of water = 60°C - 0°C = 60°C
by substitution:
∴q3 = 18 g * 4.18 J/g-K * 60°C
= 4514 J = 4.514 KJ
∴the total change of enthalpy = q1+q2+q3
= 1.881 KJ +6.01 KJ + 4.514 KJ
= 12.405 KJ
Answer: The partial pressure of the dry oxygen is 742 torr
Explanation:
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of partial pressure of each individual gas present. Thus 
Given; Total pressure = 762 torr
partial pressure of water = 19.8 torr
partial pressure of dry oxygen = ? torr
Total pressure = partial pressure of water + partial pressure of dry oxygen
762 torr = 19.8 torr = partial pressure of dry oxygen
partial pressure of dry oxygen = 742 torr
The partial pressure of the dry oxygen is 742 torr
Answer:
The answer to the questions are as follows
Reaction B is 4426.28 times faster than reaction A
(b) Reaction B is faster.
Explanation:
To solve the question we are meant to compare both reactions to see which one is faster
The values of the given activation energies are as follows
For A
Ea = 95.00 kJ mol–1 (22.71 kcal mol–1) and
for B
Ea = 74.20 kJ mol–1 (17.73 kcal mol–1)
T is the same for both reactions and is equal to 298 k
Concentration of both reaction = 1M
The Arrhenius Law is given by
k = 
Where
k = rate constant
Ea = activation energy
R = universal gas constant
T = temperature (Kelvin
)
A = Arrhenius factor
Therefore
For reaction A, the rate constant k₁ is given by k₁ = 
And for B the rate constant k₂ is given by k₂ = 
k₁ = A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷
k₂ = A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴
As seen from the above Reaction B is faster than reaction A by (A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴)/(A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷) or 4426.28 times
One of the many awe-inspiring things about algae, Professor Greene explains, is that they can grow between ten and 100 times faster than land plants. In view of this speedy growth rate – combined with the fact they can thrive virtually anywhere in the right conditions – growing marine microalgae could provide a variety of solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.
Take, global warming. Algae sequesters CO2, as we have learned, but owing to the fact they grow faster than land plants, can cover wider areas and can be utilised in bioreactors, they can actually absorb CO2 more effectively than land plants. AI company Hypergiant Industries, for instance, say their algae bioreactor was 400 times more efficient at taking in CO2 than trees.
And it’s not just their nutritional credentials which could solve humanity’s looming food crisis, but how they are produced. Marine microalgae grow in seawater, which means they do not rely on arable land or freshwater, both of which are in limited supply. Professor Greene believes the use of these organisms could therefore release almost three million km2 of cropland for reforestation, and also conserve one fifth of global freshwater
Explanation:
- Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.
So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.
Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.
- When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.
A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which
is positive.
- Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.
Hence, for an exothermic process value of
is negative.
Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.
- A combustion reaction is exothermic.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings,
is negative.
- For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.
