Explain what happens to the heat that is being added to a substance when the substance is changing phase.

1 answer:

4 0

<span>When a substance changes from one state, or phase, of matter to another we say that it has undergone a change of state, or we say that it has undergone a change of phase. For example, ice melts and becomes water; water evaporates and becomes water vapor.These changes of phase always occur with a change of heat. Heat, which is energy, either comes into the material during a change of phase or heat comes out of the material during this change. However, although the heat content of the material changes, the temperature does not.</span>

Three blocks of metal at the same temperature are placed on a hot stove. Their specific heat capacities are listed below.Rank th

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Copper>Steel>Aluminium

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the heat capacity accounts for the required heat to increase by 1°C, 1 kg of the metal, copper is the one that has the lower heat capacity, it means that it requires the least amount of energy to warm up (increase its temperature), this could be substantiated via the mathematical definition of heat capacity:

$H=mC(T_2-T_1)$

Solving for $T_2$ :

$T_2=T_1+\frac{H}{mC}$

It means that the lower the heat capacity, the higher the final temperature.

Best regards.

A 250 mL sample of gas is collected over water at 35°C and at a total pressure of 735 mm Hg. If the vapor pressure of water at 3

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The volume of the gas sample at standard pressure is <u>819.5ml</u>

Explanation:

Solution Given:

let volume be V and temperature be T and pressure be P.

$V_1=250ml$

$V_2=?$

$P_{total}=735 mmhg$

1 torr= 1 mmhg

42.2 torr=42.2 mmhg

so,

$P_{water}=42.2mmhg$

$T_1=35°C=35+273=308 K$

Now

firstly we need to find the pressure due to gas along by subtracting the vapor pressure of water.

$P_{gas}=P_{total}-P_{water}$

=735-42.2=692.8 mmhg

Now

By using combined gas law equation:

$\frac{P_1*V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2*V_2}{T_2}$

$V_2=\frac{P_1*}{P_2}*\frac{T_2}{T_1} *V_1$

$V_2=\frac{P_gas}{P_2}*\frac{T_2}{T_1} *V_1$

Here $P_2 \:and\: T_2$ are standard pressure and temperature respectively.

we have

$P_2=750mmhg \:and\: T_2=273K$

Substituting value, we get

$V_2=\frac{692.8}{750}*\frac{273}{308} *250$

$V_2= 819.51 ml$

You inoculate a bacterium into three tubes of nutrient broth medium containing added salt: 0.5% NaCl, 5% NaCl, and 15% NaCl. Aft

g100num [7]

Answer:

Halophile.

Explanation:

Halophile microorganisms are microorganisms that require very large amounts of NaCl. If the concentration of NaCl is very little, there will be no growth. Ih this case, given that it grows between 5% and 15%, it can be considered a moderate halophile.

What is the percent yield of LiCl if I produced 30.85g LiCl and my theoretical yield was calculated to be 35.40g LiCl?

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

87.15%

Explanation:

To find percent yield, we can use this simple equation

$\frac{Actual}{Theoretical} *100$

Where "Actual" is the amount in grams actually collected from the reaction, and "Theoretical" is, well, the theoretical amount that should have been produced.

They give us these values, so to find the percent yield, just plug the numbers in.

$\frac{30.85}{35.40} *100\\\\ =87.15$

So, the percent yield is 87.15%

An easy trick to remember how to do this is just to divide the smaller number by the bigger number and move the decimal back two places. If you have a percent yield greater than 100%, something is wrong in the reaction.
