Answer:

W = - 10.5943 KJ, work is negative because it is carried out by the system towards the surroundings.

Explanation:

heat engine:

∴ Th = 485°C

∴ Tc = 42°C

∴ Qh = 9.75 KJ......heat from hot source

first law:

∴ ΔU = Q + W = 0 .........cyclic process

⇒ Q = - W

∴ Q = Qh + Qc = Qh - (- Qc)

∴ Qc: heat from the cold source ( - )

⇒ Qh - ( - Qc) = - W..............(1)

⇒ Qc/Qh = - Tc/Th...........(2)

from (2):

⇒ Qc = - (Tc/Th)(Qh) = - (42°C/485°C)(9.75 KJ)

⇒ Qc = - 0.8443 KJ

replacing in (1):

⇒ - W = 9.75 KJ - ( - 0.8443 KJ)

⇒ - W = 10.5943 KJ

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Elements that fall between those on the left and right sides of the periodic table

Explanation:

Transition metals:

These are present at the center of periodic table.

These are d-block elements.

They include the elements of group 3 to 12 in periodic table.

They have large charge to radius ratio.

They mostly form paramagnetic compounds.

They shoes more than one oxidation state.

They form colored compounds.

They all have high melting and boiling point.

They have high densities.

They form stable complexes.

The elements of f-block are also transition but they are called inner transition.These are consist of two series lanthanide and actinides.

If the temperature changes by 100k by how much does it change in °c?​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

-173.15°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Temperature changes = 100 K

Temperature changes in degree Celsius = ?

Solution:

Kelvin and degree Celsius both are units of temperature.

In order to convert the degree Celsius to kelvin following equation is used.

Temperature in degree Celsius +273.15

For example;

100°C to kelvin = 100+273.15 = 373.15 K

To convert the kelvin into degree Celsius:

100K - 272.15 = -173.15°C

Type of energy transformed into chemical energy by plants
Pie
Answer: Radiant energy to chemical energy. Explanation: Photosynthesis is known for the radiant energy transformation into chemical energy. It is a process where plants to take in sunlight, water, & CO2 and convert them into oxygen, and glucose, in this process CO2 is removed from the air. In the process of photosynthesis, the energy that is captured by the sun is stored in the form of carbohydrates. The photosynthesis process occurs in the chloroplast which is present in the plants, and the pigment is known as chlorophyll which helps to make plant green.
