If a gas furnace releases 420 kcal of heat energy, what is the energy in kilojoules? (1 cal = 4.184 J)

Chemistry

Answer:
The furnace releases 1757280 J 

Explanation:
We will do the conversion on two steps:
1- convert the kcal to cal
2- convert the cal to J

Step 1: converting kcal to cal
1 kcal is equivalent to 1000 cal. Therefore:
420 kcal is equivalent to 420*1000 = 420000 cal

Step 2: converting cal to J
We are given that:
<span>1 cal = 4.184 J
</span>Therefore:
420000 cal is equivalent to 420000 * 4.184 = 1757280 J 

Hope this helps :)

Do you think that participation in a Supervised Agriculture Experience (SAE) prepares a student for a career in the AFN industry
irinina [24]

Answer:

The SAE curriculum includes practical farming tasks conducted outside the scheduled classroom and laboratory period by students. SAEs offer a method for students in agricultural education to gain real-world work opportunities that they are most interested in in the field of agriculture. Supervised agricultural experience is an essential component of agricultural education, and all Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (AFNR) courses are a necessary component.

The radioactive decay of a certain sample produced 846 disintegrations per minute. exactly 3.00 days later, the rate of decay wa
Margarita [4]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{1.81 da}}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the decay constant

The integrated rate law for radioactive decay is 1

\ln\dfrac{A_{0}}{A_{t}} = kt

where

A₀ and A_t are the counts at t = 0 and t

k is the radioactive decay constant

\ln \dfrac{846}{269} = k \times 3.00\\\\\ln3.145 = 3.00k\\1.146 = 3.00k\\\\k =\dfrac{1.146}{3}\\\\k = \text{0.382 /da}\\

2. Calculate the half-life

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k} = \dfrac{\ln2}{0.382} = \text{1.81 da}

The half-life for decay is \boxed{\textbf{1.81 da}}.

Use the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of Δ∘rxn
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

Explanation:

  • CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)

∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state

∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)

⇒  ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
