Answer:

8.60 x 10⁴ kJ

Explanation:

The energy released per gram of methane is first calculated:

(2498kJ)/(45.0g) = 55.5 kJ/g

The heat released by the combustion of 1.55 kg of methane is then calculated:

(55.5kJ/g)(1.55kg)(1000g/kg) = 86025kJ

To three significant digits, the answer is 8.60 x 10⁴ kJ.

45g ---> 2498kJ
1.55g ----> ?kJ
Answer: (1.55x2498)/45 approx 86.04 (kJ)

When 0.5141 g of biphenyl (C12H10) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.823 °C to 29.419 °C

natka813 [3]

Answer:

$\Delta_{r}U$ of the reaction is -6313 kJ/mol

$\Delta_{r}H$ of the reaction is -6312 kJ/mol

Explanation:

$Temperature\,\,change= \Delta U = 29.419-25.823 =3.506^{o}C$

$q_{cal}= C \times \Delta T$

$=5.861 \times 3.596 = 21.076\,kJ$

$q_{rxn}= -q_{cal}= -21.076\,kJ$

$\Delta_{r}U= -21.076 \times \frac{154}{0.5141}= -6313\, kJ/mol$

Therefore, $\Delta_{r}U$ of the reaction is -6313 kJ/mol.

The chemical reaction in bomb calorimeter is as follows.

$C_{12}H_{10}(s)+\frac{27}{2}O_{2}(g)\rightarrow 12CO_{2}(g)+5H_{2}O(g)$

$Number\,of\,moles\Delta n=(12+5)-\frac{27}{2}=3.5$

$\Delta_{r}H=\Delta E+ \Delta n. RT$

$=-6313+3.5\times 8.314\times 10^{-3} \times 3.596=-6312\,kJ/mol$

Therefore, $\Delta_{r}H$ of the reaction is -6312 kJ/mol.

Which of the following conditions creates the largest waves?

SashulF [63]

Answer:

strong winds that blow in short spurts over a small distance

Explanation:

Generally, the most common factor that causes the largest waves in the ocean is winds. this is also called wind-driven waves of the ocean when the surface wind flows on the surface of the ocean, this disturbance creates the friction between surface wind and surface of the ocean which creates waves in the ocean
