Physics

C

Explanation:

This is because the other variables in the other choices are relative to different observers and hence are not good to use in an experiment because there will be a lot of inherent bias by the person conducting the experiment For example how one person views how strong or beautiful the maple or oak looks may be different from how another person perceives the same.

However, weight is an absolute SI unit and does not vary from experiment to experiment. It is, therefore, a non-biased variable to use in the experiment and determine which wood between oak and maple can hold more weight.

Why would machine-operated stopwatches be used at sports events instead of hand-operated stopwatches?
Pie
Probably to be more accurate. With hand-operated stop watches there is more room for (human) error.

A 1.00-kg sample of steam at 100.0 °C condenses to water at 100.0 °C. What is the entropy change of the sample if the latent hea
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Explanation:

Entropy: Entropy can be defined as the measure of the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.mol

Mathematically, entropy is expressed as

ΔS = ΔH/T....................... Equation 1

Where ΔH = heat absorbed or evolved, T = absolute temperature.

<em>Given:  If 1 mole of water = 0.0018 kg,</em>

<em>ΔH = latent heat × mass = 2.26 x 10⁶ × 1 = 2.26x 10⁶ J.</em>

<em>T = 100 °C = (100+273)  K = 373 K.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>ΔS =2.26x 10⁶/373</em>

ΔS = 6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Therefore the entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol
