When fuel is burned in a cylinder equipped with a piston, the volume expands from 0.255 L to 1.45 L against an external pressure

of 1.02 atm. In addition, 875 J is emitted as heat. What is the DE for the burning of the fuel?

Answer : The value of \Delta E for the burning of the fuel is, -998.5 joules.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the work done.

Formula used :

w=-p_{ext}dV\\\\w=-p_{ext}(V_2-V_1)

where,

w = work done  = ?

p_{ext} = external pressure = 1.02 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 0.255 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 1.45 L

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get :

w=-p_{ext}(V_2-V_1)

w=-(1.02atm)\times (1.45-0.255)L

w=-1.22L.atm=-1.22\times 101.3J=-123.5J

conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Now we have to calculate the change in internal energy of the system.

\Delta E=q+w

\Delta E=-875J+(-123.5J)

\Delta E=-998.5J

Therefore, the value of \Delta E for the burning of the fuel is, -998.5 joules.

Part i. you considered the equilibrium: fe3+(aq) + scn-(aq) fe(scn)2+(aq), and compared the color of the solutions in four test
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The equilibrium will be shifted to lift with the formation of a brown gelatinous precipitate of Fe(OH)₃.

Explanation:

  • Le Chatelier's principle states that <em>"when any system at equilibrium for is subjected to change in concentration, temperature, volume, or pressure, then the system readjusts itself to counteract the effect of the applied change and a new equilibrium is established that is different from the old equilibrium"</em>.
  • The addition of NaOH will result in the formation of Fe(OH)₃ precipitate which has a brown gelatinous precipitate.
  • The formation of this precipitate cause removal and decrease of Fe³⁺ ions.
  • According to Le Chatelier's principle, the system will be shifted to lift to increase Fe³⁺ concentration and reduce the stress of Fe³⁺ removal and readjust the equilibrium again. So, the [Fe(SCN)²⁺] decreases.
  • Increasing [Fe³⁺] will produce a yellow color solution that contains a brown gelatinous precipitate of Fe(OH)₃.

How many atoms are present in 34.69 moles of Mg
shusha [124]
<span>Avogadro's number. 

1 mole of any substance, molecule or element is equal to a certain amount of atom. 

6.022 x 10^23 is the Avogradro's constant. 

Magnesium Oxide is a compound. therefore if you have 30.3 g of it (1 mol), it will have the same number of atoms. 

34.69 moles of MgO has 208.9 x 10^23 number of atoms. 

2.089 x 10^25 is also a correct answer.</span><span>

Write einstein's equation that explains the energy from nuclear reactions. _________ use the caret symbol (^) to show an exponen
Katen [24]
I would say it should be Einstein's famous equation of e=mc^2 which means energy =mass x the speed of light squared. With this equation Einstein showed that energy comes from a mass travelling at the speed of light squared which is a fundamental equation to explain physical phenomena.
