A certain lightbulb has a tungsten filament with a resistance of 26 Ω when cold and 170 Ω when hot. If the equation R = R0 [1 +

α ∆T] can be used over the large temperature range involved here, find the temperature of the filament when it is hot. Assume that α , the temperature coefficient of resistivity of tungsten, is 0.0045 (◦C)−1 and that the temperature of the cold filament is 40◦C. Answer in units of ◦C

Answer:

Explanation: The equation that relates resistance of tungsten at different temperatures is as follows

R = R₀ [1 + α ∆T]  , R₀ is resistance at lower temperature , R is resistance at higher temperature . α is temperature coefficient of resistivity and ∆T is rise in temperature .

Putting the values

170 = 26 [1 + .0045 ∆T]

∆T = 1230.75

lower temperature = 40◦C

higher temperature = 1230 + 40

= 1270◦C

Resonance structures have _______ connectivity of atoms and _______ distribution of electrons.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Resonance structures have <u> </u><u>same</u><u>  </u>  connectivity of atoms and <u> differ only in</u> distribution of electrons.

Explanation:

Atoms supply the electrons from their outer electron shells. Electrons are found free in nature and are grouped around the nucleus into shells. Electrons can be further explained as negatively charged subatomic particle. Electrons have properties of both particles and waves and they can be moved around.

Resonance structures are imaginary structures and not all of them are created equally. Resonance structures have two or more possible electron structures, and, the resonance structures for a particular substance sometimes have different energy and stability. When resonance structures are identical, they are important descriptions  of the molecule. The position of the atoms is the same in the various resonance structures of a compound, but the electrons are distributed differently around the structure.

An ideal gas, initially at a pressure of 11.2 atm and a temperature of 299 K, is allowed to expand adiabatically until its volum
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The pressure is  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial pressure is P_1  =  11.2\ a.t.m

   The  temperature is  T_1 =   299 \ K

   

Let the first volume be  V_1 Then the final volume will be  2 V_1

 Generally for a diatomic  gas

           P_1 V_1 ^r  =  P_2  V_2  ^r

Here r is the radius of the molecules which is  mathematically represented as

    r =  \frac{C_p}{C_v}

Where C_p \  and\   C_v are the molar specific heat of a gas at constant pressure and  the molar specific heat of a gas at constant volume with values

     C_p=7 \  and\   C_v=5

=>   r =  \frac{7}{5}

=>  11.2*( V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } ) =  P_2  *  (2 V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } )

=>   P_2  =  [\frac{1}{2} ]^{\frac{7}{5} } * 11.2

=>  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m
