What is the room temperature of water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
inn [45]3 years ago
4 0
I surmise that the person who asked this question was wondering why water in a room may sometimes be colder than ambient air and by how much. 

For water to get cooler than ambient air requires two conditions: exposed water surface or water able to seep through a clay pot, and relatively low ambient humidity level (usually lower than 30% relative humidity). These two conditions combined enable evaporation. Now, evaporation of liquid water into water vapor necessitates input of latent energy (2257 kJ/kg), and this is at the expense of the remaining liquid water. Thus, liquid water in a room can be at a temperature lower than room temperature.

<span>By how much?  There is no straight answer to this because the temperature of the remaining liquid water depends on (1) the rate of evaporation, which itself depends on the amount of surface exposure and the room humidity and temperature, (2) the amount of water remaining in the pot, and (3) the rate of reheating of the water by the ambient air.  In practice, the water temperature can be lower than room temperature by several degrees Celsius. </span>

vazorg [7]

Explanation:

A chemical bond which is formed in between positively charged atoms when there is sharing of free electrons in a lattice of cations is known as a metallic bond.

In a pure metal, atoms are surrounded by free moving valence electrons which move from one part of metal to another.

Thus, we can conclude that pure metals are held together by metallic bonds due to attraction between mobile valence electrons and positively charged metal ions.

Firdavs [7]

Question:

A student weighed an empty graduated cylinder. It weighed 35.86 g. She then carefully added water to the graduated cylinder until it reached the 7.5 mL mark. When she weighed the graduated cylinder again, this time with the 7.5 mL of water in it, it weighed 43.18 g. What was this student's experimental density of water?

Answer:

0.976 g/mL

Explanation:

Weight of empty cylinder = 35.86g

Volume of water = 7.5mL

Weight of cylinder + water = 43.18g

Experimental density = ?

Density of water = Mass of water / volume of water

Mass of water = (Weight of cylinder + water) - Weight of empty cylinder

Mass of water = 43.18 - 35.86 = 7.32g

Density = 7.32 / 7.5 = 0.976 g/mL

Calculate the PH of a solution 0.030 MH2SO4
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

pH= 2- log3

Explanation:

H2SO4 + H2O -> HSO4^(-) + H30^(+)

0.03M ___ ___

___ 0.03M 0.03M

H30^(+) : C = 0.03M

pH= - log( [H3O^(+)] ) => pH= - log {3× 10^(-2)} => pH = 2 - log3
