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.

Write 0.000000093425 in Scientific Notation with 4 significant figures.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The given number in scientific notation is 9.342\times 10^{-8}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Scientific notation is the notation where a number is expressed in the decimal form. This means that the number is always written in the power of 10 form. The numerical digit lies between 0.1.... to 9.9.....

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

We are given:

A number having value = 0.000000093425

Converting this into scientific notation, we get:

\Rightarrow 0.000000093425=9.342\times 10^{-8}

Hence, the given number in scientific notation is 9.342\times 10^{-8}

Atoms of different chemical elements can be differentiated based on the number of.
Alona [7]

The atoms of different chemical elements can be differentiated based on the number of protons.

Each chemical element is differentiated by his number of protons. This number of protons is also knowing as atomic number and it is represented by the letter (Z).

The atomic number represented the number of protons in the nucleus of an element. For example:

  • The element that has only 1 proton in his nucleus is Hydrogen atom.
  • The element that has 2 protons in his nucleus is Helium atom.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.

The Mole #2<br> Avogadro's Number <br> PLEASE HELP ASAP! due tmr will give brainliest!
Elis [28]

The solution is here,

given mass of copper wire(m)=25 g

no. of moles in given mass of Cu=0.393

a) no. of atoms= no. of moles×avogardo's number

=0.393×6.023×10^23=2.36 ×10^23 atoms

b) 25 g of Cu wire has 0.393 moles

so 200 g of Cu wire has 0.393/25 × 200=3.144 mol.

no. of atoms= 3.144×2.023×10^23=1.89×10^24 atoms.

c) 25 g of Cu wire has 2.36×10^23 atoms

so 5 g of Cu wire has (2.36×10^23)/25 × 5

=4.72×10^22 atoms

( b can also be solve like c)
