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.

Determine the freezing point of a solution which contains 0.31 mol of sucrose in 175 g of water. kf = 1.86ï°c/m
barxatty [35]
Freezing point depression is a colligative property.

The formula that rules it is:

ΔT f = Kf * m

Where m is the molality of the solution => m = moles of solute / Kg of solvent

=> m = 0.31 mol / 0.175 kg = 1.771 m

And kf = 1.86 °C/m

=> ΔTf = 1.771 m * 1.86 °C / m = 3.3 °C

 => Freezing point of the solution = normal freezing point of water - 3.3 °C = 0 - 3.3°C = - 3.3°C.

Answer: -3.3 °C

For this question, use the main assumptions of the Kinetic Molecular Theory of gases:
Gennadij [26K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option 3 is correct.

3. The molecular collisions are perfectly elastic.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to the kinetic molecular theory, the molecular collisions are perfectly elastic, so the the molecules of a gas striking with the wall of container are elastic and they are exerting considerable pressure on the walls of container. This pressure is actually exerted against the walls is less for real gases as compared to ideal gases.

Convert 23 kg to ounces (2.2 lbs = 1 kg) (1 lb = 16 ounces)
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

23 kgs = 809.6 ounces

Explanation:

given:

1 kg = 2.2 ibs

therefore, 23 kgs = 2.2*23 Ibs = 50.6 Ibs

since, 1 Ib = 16 ounces

therefore, 23 kgs = 50.6*16 ounces = 809.6 ounces

g Tibet (altitude above sea level is 29,028 ft) has an atmospheric pressure of 240. mm Hg. Calculate the boiling point of water
Marina CMI [18]

<u>Answer:</u> The boiling point of water in Tibet is 69.9°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the boiling point of water in Tibet, we use the Clausius-Clayperon equation, which is:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

P_1 = initial pressure which is the pressure at normal boiling point = 1 atm = 760 mmHg      (Conversion factor:  1 atm = 760 mmHg)

P_2 = final pressure = 240. mmHg

\Delta H_{vap} = Heat of vaporization = 40.7 kJ/mol = 40700 J/mol     (Conversion factor: 1 kJ = 1000 J)

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T_1 = initial temperature or normal boiling point of water = 100^oC=[100+273]K=373K

T_2 = final temperature = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\ln(\frac{240}{760})=\frac{40700J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{373}-\frac{1}{T_2}]\\\\-1.153=4895.36[\frac{T_2-373}{373T_2}]\\\\T_2=342.9K

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

342.9=T(^oC)+273\\T(^oC)=(342.9-273)=69.9^oC

Hence, the boiling point of water in Tibet is 69.9°C
