Assume the weight of an average adult is 70. kg, and that 420. kJ of heat are evolved per mole of oxygen consumed as a result of

the oxidation of foodstuffs, knowing that the number of moles of O2 inhaled per minutes are 0.02 mol/min. Suppose an adult body were encased in a thermally insulating barrier. If as a result of this barrier all the heat evolved by metabolism of foodstuffs were retained by the body, what would the temperature difference of the body reach after 3 hours

Answer:

The temperature difference of the body after 3 hours = 5.16 K

Explanation:

we know that the number of moles of O₂ inhaled are 0.02 mole/min⁻¹

                                   or, 1.2 mole.h⁻¹

The average heat evolved by the oxidation of foodstuffs is then:

⇒          Q avg =\frac{1.2 X 420 X 10^{3} }{70} = 7.2 kj.h⁻¹.Kg⁻¹

the heat produced after 3 h would be:

                 =    7.2 kj. h⁻¹.Kg⁻¹ x 3 h

                 = 21.6 kj. kg⁻¹

                 = 21.6 x 10³ j kg⁻¹

We know Qp = Cp x ΔT

Assume the heat capacity of the body is 4.18 J g⁻¹K⁻¹

⇒ ΔT = \frac{Qp}{Cp}

⇒ ΔT = \frac{(21.6 X 10^{3} j.kg^{-1} ) }{(4.18 j k^{-1}g^{-1})   X (1000g.kg^{-1} )}

⇒ ΔT = 5.16 K

Household bleach is an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), and its concentration is often measured as a percent by
stira [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.033 M

Explanation:

We have a solution of NaClO with a concentration of 5%w/w:

5% w/w=  5 g NaClO/100 g solution

The first dilution is 10 ml of solution in 100 ml. That is a 1/10 dilution (10ml/100 ml= 1/10). That means we are diluting 10 times the solution. We can calculate the resulting concentration after this first dilution as follows:

5%w/w x 10 ml/100 ml = 5% w/w/10= 0.5%w/w

Then, we take 6 ml of 0.5% w/w solution and we add 6 ml of dye in a reaction vessel. The total volume of the solution in the reaction vessel is 6 ml + 6 ml= 12 ml, and we are diluting twice the solution because 6 ml/12 ml= 1/2. We can calculate the resulting concentration of the solution after this second dilution as follows:

0.5% w/w x 6 ml/12 ml= 0.5% w/w/2= 0.25%w/w

Finally, we need to convert the concentration from %w/w to M (mol solution/1L solution). For this, we assume a density of the solution close to the density of water (1.00 g/ml) and we use the molecular weight of NaClO (74.44 g/mol):

0.25 g NaClO/100 g solution x 1 mol NaClO/74.44 g x 1.00 g solution/1 ml x 100 ml/0.1 L= 0.033 mol/L

= 0.033 M

In the kinetic theory of matter how does temperature affect the particles?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

B- Lower temperature causes a reduction in movement

Explanation:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. The end result of increased molecular motion is that the object expands and takes up more space
