Option (a) is correct,
the purpose of the condenser is to de-superheat, the entering vapor, condense the vapor to a liquid, and subcool the liquid.
<h3>What is a condenser's purpose?</h3>
A condenser uses a cooling fluid to attempt to sufficiently cool down a vapor, changing its state from a vapor to a liquid. Condensers come in a variety of designs, including direct condensing, which involves coming into direct touch with the cooling fluid and the vapor.
<h3>What kind of vapor is condensed?</h3>
The vapour that needs to condense might be highly different and can even include non-condensable vapour, such as air, which greatly affects how well the condenser works.

Answer:
The compound may have properties that are very different from those of the elements.
Explanation:
For example - common salt, sodium chloride ( NaCl) has very different properties from sodium and chlorine
The specific heat of metal is c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
mass of metal = 68.6 g
t metal = 100 °C
mass water = 84 g
t water = 20 °C
final temperature = 52.1 °C
Required
The specific heat
Solution
Heat can be formulated :
Q = m.c.Δt
Q absorbed by water = Q released by metal
84 x 4.184 x (52.1-20)=68.6 x c x (100-52.1)
11281.738=3285.94 x c
c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.
Answer:
Explanation:
count given by old sample = .97 disintegrations per minute per gram
count given by fresh sample = 6.68 disintegrations per minute per gram
Half life of radioactive carbon = 5568 years
rate of disintegration
dN / dt = λ N
In other words rate of disintegration is proportional to no of radioactive atoms present . As number reduces rate also reduces .
Let initial no of radioactive be N₀ and after time t , number reduces to N
N₀ / N = 6.68 / .97
Now



λ is disintegration constant
λ = .693 / half life
= .693 / 5568
= .00012446 year⁻¹
Putting the values in the equation above


1.929577 = .00012446 t
t = 15503.6 years .
