Liquid sodium is being considered as an engine coolant. How many grams of liquid sodium (minimum) are needed to absorb of energy

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

First, you are not providing any data to solve this, so I'm gonna use some that i made up to explain to you, how to solve it. Then, you can go and replace the data you have with the procedure here

The concentration of liquid sodium will be aroun 8.5 MJ of energy, and I will assume that the temperature will not be increased more than 15 °C.

The expression to calculate the amount of energy is:

Q = m * cp * dT

Where:

m: moles needed

cp: specific heat of the substance.

The cp of liquid sodium reported is 30.8 J/ K mole

Replacing all the data in the above formula, and solving for m we have:

m = Q / cp * dT

dT is the increase of temperature. so 15 ° C is the same change for 15 K.

We also need to know that 1 MJ is 1x10^6 J, so replacing all data:

m = 8.5 * 1x10^6 J / 30.8 J/K mole * 15

m = 18,398.27 moles

The molar mass of sodium is 22.95 g/mol so the mass is:

mass = 18,398.27 * 22.95 = 422,240.26 g or simply 422 kg rounded.

I am so lost, and suggestions to how I can solve this?

Ad libitum [116K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

165.078 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Specific heat capacity of nickel as 0.446 J/g°C
Initial temperature of nickel is 255.5 °C
Mass of water in the calorimeter is 250.0 g
Initial temperature of water is 20° C
Final temperature of the mixture is 35.5°C

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C

We are required to calculate the mass of nickel sample;

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the amount of heat absorbed by water.</h3>

We know that quantity of heat absorbed, Q = m × c × ΔT

Change in temperature, ΔT = 35.5°C - 20°C

= 15.5 °C

Therefore, Q = 250 g × 4.1 J/g°C × 15.5° C

= 16,197.5 Joules

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the amount of heat released by nickel sample</h3>

Assuming the mass of nickel sample is m

Then, Heat released, Q = m × c × ΔT

Change in temperature, ΔT = 255.5 °C - 35.5 ° C

= 220 °C

Q = m × 0.446 J/g°C × 220° C

= 98.12m joules

<h3>Step 3: Determine the mass of nickel sample</h3>

We know that the amount of heat absorbed is equivalent to amount of heat released.

That is, Quantity of heat absorbed = Quantity of heat released

Therefore;

98.12 m joules = 16,197.5 Joules

m = 165.078 g

Thus, the mass of nickel sample is 165.078 g

What is the Molar Mass of Iron(Fe)? and also state how many particles there are in one mole of iron.

Lunna [17]

The atomic mass is useful in chemistry when it is paired with the mole concept: the atomic mass of an element, measured in amu, is the same as the mass in grams of one mole of an element. since the atomic mass of iron is 55.847 amu, one mole of iron atoms would weigh 55.847 grams.

How do you explain why air bags in cars are important during head on collisions using Newton’s first law?

Alenkasestr [34]

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This is referred to as interia . If an unbalanced force such as another vehilce hits another, than a persons air bag will then be active . Because when a car is in motion at a constant speed, that’s what will happen when an unbalanced force acts apon it .
