Answer:

Density = 0.25 g/cm³

Explanation:

Firstly, the density of a body is the mass of that body divided by it volume. The density gives the idea of the relationship between the mass of a body and the space which it occupies(volume). How tightly packed the atoms that makes up the body, affects the density of every substance. If the substance has a large mass and the atoms are well arrange to fill all the spaces the density is expected to be high.

In the case of fire wood that has life initially, due to the sparsely packed nature of the cells the firewood is bound to have a low density because the mass are not occupying as much space as possible.

The mass of the firewood is already measured and known likewise the volume. Base on the formula for calculating density which is ;

Density = mass/volume

Density = 120/480

dividing through

Density = 1/4

converting the fraction to decimal

Density = 0.25 g/cm³

The density of the firewood is 0.25 gram per centimeter cube

What is the molality of sodium chloride in solution that is 13.0% by mass sodium chloride and that has a density of 1.10 g/ml?

8090 [49]

Answer is: molality od sodium chloride is 2,55 mol/kg.
V(solution) = 100 ml.
m(solution) = d(solution) · V(solution).
m(solution) = 1,10 g/ml · 100 ml.
m(solution) = 110 g.
ω(NaCl) = 13,0% = 0,13.
m(NaCl) = ω(NaCl) · m(solution).
m(NaCl) = 0,13 · 110 g.
m(NaCl) = 14,3 g.
n(NaCl) = m(NaCl) ÷ M(NaCl).
n(NaCl) = 14,3 g ÷ 58,5 g/mol.
n(NaCl) = 0,244 mol.
m(H₂O) = 110 g - 14,3 g.
m(H₂O) = 95,7 g = 0,0957 kg.
b(NaCl) = n(NaCl) ÷ m(H₂O).
b(NaCl) = 0,244 mol ÷ 0,0957 kg.
b(NaCl) = 2,55 mol/kg.

What kind of energy is thermal energy?

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>B. Kinetic energy</h2>

Explanation:

According to research :

Thermal energy comes from a substance whose molecules and atoms are vibrating faster due to a rise in temperature. Heat energy is another name for thermal energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object. As thermal energy comes from moving particles, it is a form of kinetic energy.

A 3.00-kg block of copper at 23.0°C is dropped into a large vessel of liquid nitrogen at 77.3 K. How many kilograms of nitrogen

hammer [34]

Answer:

1.2584kg of nitrogen boils.

Explanation:

Consider the energy balance for the overall process. There are not heat or work fluxes to the system, so the total energy keeps the same.

For the explanation, the 1 and 2 subscripts will mean initial and final state, and C and N2 superscripts will mean copper and nitrogen respectively; also, liq and vap will mean liquid and vapor phase respectively.

The overall energy balance for the whole system is:

$U_1=U_2$

The state 1 is just composed by two phases, the solid copper and the liquid nitrogen, so: $U_1=U_1^C+U_1^{N_2}$

The state 2 is, by the other hand, composed by three phases, solid copper, liquid nitrogen and vapor nitrogen, so:

$U_2=U_2^C+U_{2,liq}^{N_2}+U_{2,vap}^{N_2}$

So, the overall energy balance is:

$U_1^C+U_1^{N_2}=U_2^C+U_{2,liq}^{N_2}+U_{2,vap}^{N_2}$

Reorganizing,

$U_1^C-U_2^C=U_{2,liq}^{N_2}+U_{2,vap}^{N_2}-U_1^{N_2}$

The left part of the equation can be written in terms of the copper Cp because for solids and liquids Cp≅Cv. The right part of the equation is written in terms of masses and specific internal energy:

$m_C*Cp*(T_1^C-T_2^C)=m_{2,liq}^{N_2}u_{2,liq}^{N_2}+m_{2,vap}^{N_2}u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-m_1^{N_2}u_1^{N_2}$

Take in mind that, for the mass balance for nitrogen, $m_1^{N_2}=m_{2,liq}^{N_2}+m_{2,vap}^{N_2}$ ,

So, let's replace $m_1^{N_2}$ in the energy balance:

$m_C*Cp*(T_1^C-T_2^C)=m_{2,liq}^{N_2}u_{2,liq}^{N_2}+m_{2,vap}^{N_2}u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-m_{2,liq}^{N_2}u_1^{N_2}-m_{2,vap}^{N_2}u_1^{N_2}$

So, as you can see, the term $m_{2,liq}^{N_2}u_{2,liq}^{N_2}$ disappear because $u_{2,liq}^{N_2}=u_{1,liq}^{N_2}$ (The specific energy in the liquid is the same because the temperature does not change).

$m_C*Cp*(T_1^C-T_2^C)=m_{2,vap}^{N_2}u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-m_{2,vap}^{N_2}u_1^{N_2}$

$m_C*Cp*(T_1^C-T_2^C)=m_{2,vap}^{N_2}(u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-u_1^{N_2})$

The difference $(u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-u_1^{N_2})$ is the latent heat of vaporization because is the specific energy difference between the vapor and the liquid phases, so:

$m_{2,vap}^{N_2}=\frac{m_C*Cp*(T_1^C-T_2^C)}{(u_{2,vap}^{N_2}-u_1^{N_2})}$

$m_{2,vap}^{N_2}=\frac{3kg*0.092\frac{cal}{gC} *(296.15K-77.3K)}{48.0\frac{cal}{g}}\\m_{2,vap}^{N_2}=1.2584kg$
