A cubic piece of platinum metal (specific heat capacity = 0.1256 J/°C・g) at 200.0°C is dropped into 1.00 L of deuterium oxide ('

heavy water,' specific heat capacity = 4.211 J/°C・g) at 25.5°C. The final temperature of the platinum and deuterium oxide mixture is 41.9°C. The density of platinum is 21.45 g/cm³ and the density of deuterium oxide is 1.11 g/mL. What is the edge length of the cube of platinum, in centimeters?

Answer:

a=5.65cm

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for this heat transfer process in which the heat lost by the hot platinum is gained by the cold deuterium oxide based on the equation:

Q_{Pt}=-Q_{Deu}

We can represent the heats in terms of mass, heat capacities and temperatures:

m_{Pt}Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})=-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})

Thus, we solve for the mass of platinum:

m_{Pt}=\frac{-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})}{Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})} \\\\m_{Pt}=\frac{-1.00L*1110g/L*4.211J/(g\°C)*(41.9-25.5)\°C}{0.1256J/(g\°C)*(41.9-200.0)\°C} \\\\m_{Pt}=3860.4g

Next, by using the density of platinum we compute the volume:

V_{Pt}=\frac{3860.4g}{21.45g/cm^3}\\ \\V_{Pt}=180cm^3

Which computed in terms of the edge length is:

V=a^3

Therefore, the edge length turns out:

a=\sqrt[3]{180cm^3}\\ \\a=5.65cm

Best regards.

A chemical plant produces ammonia using the following reaction at a very high temperature and pressure. Which design issue is mo
Lorico [155]

Answer:

D. The equipment needed to accommodate the high temperature and pressure will be expensive to produce.​

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the considered reaction, it is clear it is an exothermic reaction because it produces energy; and therefore, the higher the temperature the more reactants are yielded as the reverse reaction is favored. Moreover, since the effect of pressure is verified as favoring the side with fewer moles; in this case the products side (2 moles of ammonia).

In such a way, the high pressure favors the formation of ammonia whereas the high temperature the formation of hydrogen and nitrogen and therefore, option A is ruled out. Since the high pressure shifts the reaction rightwards and the high temperature leftwards, we would not be able to know whether the reaction has ended or not because it will be a "go and come back" process, that is why B is also discarded. Now, since hydrogen and nitrogen would be the "wastes", we discard C because they are not toxic. That is why the most accurate answer would be D. because it is actually true that such equipment is quite expensive.

Best regards!
