Calculate the Latent Heat of Vaporization. (Please see picture attached)

Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

20 J/g

Explanation:

In this question, we are required to determine the latent heat of vaporization

  • To answer the question, we need to ask ourselves the questions:

What is latent heat of vaporization?

  • It is the amount of heat required to change a substance from its liquid state to gaseous state without change in temperature.
  • It is the amount of heat absorbed by a substance as it boils.

How do we calculate the latent heat of vaporization?

  • Latent heat is calculated by dividing the amount of heat absorbed by the mass of the substance.

In this case;

  • Mass of the substance = 20 g
  • Heat absorbed as the substance boils is 400 J (1000 J - 600 J)

Thus,

Latent heat of vaporization = Quantity of Heat ÷ Mass

                                             = 400 Joules ÷ 20 g

                                             = 20 J/g

Thus, the latent heat of vaporization is 20 J/g

A stone is dropped from the top of a tower. What is its velocity after 3.0 seconds?
kap26 [50]

For purposes of completing our calculations, we're going to assume that
the experiment takes place on or near the surface of the Earth. 

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 m/s², directed toward the
center of the planet.  That means that the downward speed of a falling object
increases by 9.8 m/s for every second that it falls.

3 seconds after being dropped, a stone is falling at (3 x 9.8) = 29.4 m/s. 

That's the vertical component of its velocity.  The horizontal component is
the same as it was at the instant of the drop, provided there is no horizontal
force on the stone during its fall.

Hemoglobin (Hb) is the O2-carrying protein in our blood. Unlike myoglobin, it has four sites allowing it to bind up to four O2 m
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Yes, the energy is not simply the sum of the individual binding energies at each site, it is the product of energy at each binding site of hemoglobin.

Explanation:

Myoglobin and hemoglobin are two different cells. Myoglobin binds only one oxygen while the hemoglobin has the ability to binds four oxygen atoms at its four sides. Myoglobin present in muscle tissue only while hemoglobin is present in the whole body. Oxyhemoglobin is formed when oxygen binds with hemoglobin cell. This oxygen is take to all cells and energy is released due to the breakdown of glucose molecules with this oxygen.

Why is honesty especially important in a scientist when the results of an experiment go against predictions❓❔
kramer
Because other scientists and science in general rely on their collegues' research which in turn allows development of our knowledge on the given subject. The more dont-to-earth reason may be safety. If someone performs an experiment without knowledge of its true results it might result in some danger to the safety of those perforning it without knowledge of all the risks.

Antonina throws a coin straight up from a height of
vichka [17]

Answer:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Explanation:

We could use the following suvat equation:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement of the coin

v is its final velocity, when it hits the water

t is the time

g is the acceleration of gravity

Taking upward as positive direction, in this problem we have:

s = -1.2 m

g=-9.8 m/s^2

And the coin reaches the water when

t = 1.3 s

Substituting these data, we can find v:

v=\frac{s}{t}+\frac{1}{2}gt=-\frac{1.2}{1.3}+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(1.3)=-7.3 m/s

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.
