Delivering electricity to homes through high voltage lines, reduces the power loss that is caused by Joule's heating.

We know that:

P=VI

Where, P is power, V is the voltage and I is the current.

So if we keep P constant and make then voltage up, I must goes down.

According to Joule's first law : Power of heating generated by a conductor is directly proportional to the product of its resistance and the square of the current.

Now using the equation:

Q=I²Rt

Where Q is the heat generated, I is the current , R is the resistance and t is the time.

So by reduced I, heat loss will be reduced.

Consider these reactions:

Virty [35]

511.2 grams of chlorine gas consumed (with excess H-) when

1,342.0 kJ of energy is released from the system.

<h3></h3><h3>What is an exothermic reaction?</h3>

In thermochemistry, an exothermic reaction is a "reaction for which the overall standard enthalpy change ΔH⚬ is negative."

Given that 1 mole of chlorine releases -184.6 energy.

Then, we have to find the number of moles of chlorine when 1,342.0 kJ of energy is released from the system.

So, calculating number of moles of chlorine.

Moles = $\frac{-1,342.0 \;kJ}{-184.6\;kJ}$

Moles = 7.2 mole

Now, calculating number mass of chlorine.

$\rm Moles=\rm\frac{Mass}{Molar \;mass}$

Mass = 7.2 mole x 71 g/mole

Mass = 511.2 gram

An aqueous solution contains 0.29 M of benzoic acid (HA) and 0.16 M of sodium benzoate (A-). If the pH of this solution was meas

Inga [223]

Answer:

pKa = 4.89.

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach equation</em>, which states:

pH = pKa + log $\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}$

In this case [A⁻] is the concentration of sodium benzoate and [HA] is the concentration of benzoic acid.

We <u>input the given data</u>:

4.63 = pKa + log $\frac{0.16}{0.29}$

And <u>solve for pKa</u>:

pKa = 4.89

The weak base ionization<br> constant (Kb) for HCO3 is<br> equal to:

hammer [34]

Weak bases are alkaline solution that does not get completely dissociated. The dissociation constant will be the ratio of the concentration of the products to the reactants.

<h3>What is a weak base ionization constant?</h3>

The weak base ionization constant is the equilibrium constant that is given as the division of the products of the ionization to the concentration of the reactants.

The reaction for HCO₃ is given as:

HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻ ⇄ CO₃²⁻ + H₂O

The value of Ka for the given reaction will be:

Ka = [CO₃²⁻][H₂O] ÷ [HCO₃⁻ ][OH⁻]

Therefore, the Ka of the weak carbonic acid is given as the ratio of the concentration of the products to the reactants.
