In a certain city, electricity costs $0.17 per kW·h. What is the annual cost for electricity to power a lamp-post for 5.50 hours

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

(a) = $34.123

(b) = $8.532

(c) Additional cost of fluorescent bulb is justified

Explanation:

Cost of electricity = $0.17 per kW·h

(a) For a 100 watt bulb which is the same as 100/1000 or 0.1 kW, the cost per hour =

0.1 × 0.17 = $0.017/h

and for 5.5 hours = 0.017×5.5 = $0.0935

The annual cost, which is 365 days, we have

Annual cost = $0.0935 × 365 = $34.123

(b) For the energy efficient 25-watt bulb, we have

25/1000 = 0.025kW

Power cost per annum =

0.025kW×$0.17 per kW·h×5.5×365 = $8.532

(c) Total cost of incandescent bulb = $0.89 total cost of using the incandescent bulb is $34.123 + $0.89 = $35.02

Total cost of using the energy efficient fluorescent bulb is about $3.49

Total cost of using the energy efficient bulb = $8.532 + $3.49 = $12.02

Total cost of incandescent bulb = $35.02 while total cost of energy efficient bulb is = $12.02

$12.02 <$35.02

Additional cost of fluorescent bulb is justified

Describe how particles of iron (Fe) an oxygen (O2) react to how produce oxide (Fe2O3), also known as rust.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Described by a redox reaction below

Explanation:

Iron(III) oxide is an ionic compound, since it consists of a metal, iron, and a nonmetal, oxygen.

Ionic compounds are formed when metals lose their valence electrons in order to have an octet in their previous shell and donate them to nonmetal atoms, so that nonmetals fill their outer shell to have an octet.

As a result, positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) are formed. When iron reacts with oxygen, the following reaction takes place:

$4 Fe (s) + 3 O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2 Fe_2O_3 (s)$

This is a redox (oxidation–reduction) reaction, since we have electron loss and gain. Four iron atoms lose a total of 12 electrons to obtain a +3 charge in the final compound, while 3 oxygen molecules gain these 12 electrons to become 6 oxide anions with a -2 charge.
