A mixture of 454 kg of applesauce at 10 degrees Celsius is heated in a heat exchanger by adding 121300 kJ. Calculate the outlet

stira [4]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of apple sauce mixture = 454 kg

Heat added (Q) = 121300 kJ

Heat capacity ( $C_{p}$ ) of apple sauce at $32.8^{o}C$ = 4.0177 $kJ/kg^{o}C$

So, Heat given by heat exchanger = heat taken by apple sauce

Q = $mC_{p} \Delta T$

or, Q = $mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})$

121300 kJ = $454 kg \times 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C \times (T_{f} - 10)$

$T_{f}$ = $76.5^{o}C$

Thus, we can conclude that outlet temperature of the apple sauce is $76.5^{o}C$ .

Arterial blood contains about 0.25 g of oxygen per liter at 37°C and standard atmospheric pressure. Under these conditions, the

Olin [163]

Firstly we need to determine the partial pressure of O2:

$\begin{gathered} P_{O_2}=X\times P_T \\ P_{O_2}:partial\text{ }pressure \\ X:mole\text{ }fraction \\ P_T:total\text{ }pressure \\ \\ P_{O_2}=0.209\times0.35\text{ }atm \\ P_{O_2}=0.073\text{ }atm \end{gathered}$

We will now use the Henry's Law equation to determine the solubility of the gas:

$\begin{gathered} c=K_H\times P_{O_2} \\ c:solubility\text{ }or\text{ }concentration\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }gas(M) \\ K_H:Henry^{\prime}sLawconstant=3.7\times10^{-2}M\text{ }atm^{-1} \\ P_{O_2}:partial\text{ }pressure\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }gas=0.073atm \\ \\ c=3.7\times10^{-2}M\text{ }atm^{-1}\times0.073 \\ c=2.7\times10^{-3}M \end{gathered}$

Answer: Solubility is 2.7x10^-3 M

What is the volume, in liters, of 1.40 mol of oxygen gas at 20.0°C and 0.974 atm?

topjm [15]

Answer:

V = 34.55 L

Explanation:

Given that,

No of moles, n = 1.4

Temperature, T = 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Pressure, P = 0.974 atm

We need to find the volume of the gas. It can be calculated using Ideal gas equation which is :

PV=nRT

R is gas constant, $R=0.08206\ L-atm/mol-K$

Finding for V,

$V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\\V=\dfrac{1.4\times 0.08206\times 293}{0.974 }\\\\V=34.55\ L$

So, the volume of the gas is 34.55 L.

Democritus was the first to propose the idea of the atom. He said the atom was just this tiny, solid sphere. However, he used no scientific evidence to support his claim, so a guy named John Dalton did some experimenting and basically backed up Democritus' claim with evidence. Then, a guy named J.J. Thompson came along and said the atom was not solid and that is consisted of tiny negatively charged particles(electrons) and he came up with the Plum Pudding model which is just a tiny sphere with a punch of random scattered dots in it. After that, Ernest Rutherford did experiments and found that the tiny sphere is made up of mostly empty space with a tiny, dense, positively charged sphere inside of it, and the negatively charged particles just randomly float around it. Neils Bohr then said that the electrons take specific, circular, evenly spaced paths. Then, finally, we come to the Quantum Mechanical Model which is the one accepted today. This model basically vetos Bohr's idea and has a nucleus inside of an electron cloud, which is where the electrons are found.
