Answer:

The question is incorrect and incomplete. Here's the correct question:

It is difficult to extinguish a fire on a crude oil tanker, because each liter of crude oil releases 2.80 × 10 7 J  of energy when burned. To illustrate this difficulty,a) calculate the number of liters of water that must be expended to absorb the energy released by burning 1.00 L  of crude oil, if the water has its temperature raised from 23.5 °C to 100 °C , it boils, and the resulting steam is raised to 315 °C. b)Discuss additional complications caused by the fact that crude oil has less density than water.

Explanation:

Q= mc ΔT

Q= heat energy

m is mass

ΔT is change in temperature and c is specific heat capacity

calculating heat for latent heat of vaporisation

Q= ml where l is latent heat of vaporisation

a) Total heat energy used= heat required to raise temperature from 23.5 °C to 100 °C, heat required to boil water and heat required to further raise temperature from 100 °C to 315°C

Q = mc ΔT₁ + mL + mc ΔT₂

Q = m(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)

m= Q÷(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)

Q= 2.8 X 10⁷ J

c=4186J/kg°C

L=2256 x 10³J/kg

ΔT₁=76.5°C(100°C-23.5°C)

ΔT₂= 215°C(315°C-100°C)

(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)= 4186J/kg°C *76.5°C + 2256 x 10³J/kg + 4186J/kg°C*215°C =3476219J/Kg

m= 2.8 x 10⁷J ÷3476219J/Kg

m =80.54 Kg

volume = mass÷ density

=80.54kg ÷ 10³kg/m³( density of water)

=0.0854m³

0.001m³ = 1 lL0.08054m³= 0.08054m³ /0.001m³= 80.54L

VOLUME is 80.54litres

b) since the density of crude is less than the density of water,and 80L of additional water is added, it'll make the crude to float on water thus inhibiting the extinguishing process

How many moles are in 5.4x1024 molecules of C4H2F7I, heptafluoro-1-iodobutane? Group of answer choices
jasenka [17]

Given :

Number of molecules of C_4H_2F_7I.

To Find :

How many moles are in given number of molecules.

Solution :

We know, in 1 moles of any element/compound contains 6.022\times 10^{23} at atoms/molecules.

So, number of moles in 5.4\times 10^{24} molecules are :

n = \dfrac{5.4\times 10^{24}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\\n = 8.97 \ moles

Therefore, number of moles are 8.97 .
