They sometimes reduce the voltage to prevent a potential blackout caused by the system being overworked, this saves them money that they would have to spend to make repairs

Calculate the final temperature of a mixture of 0.350 kg of ice initially at 218°C and 237 g of water initially at 100.0°C.
kramer

Answer:

115 ⁰C

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> The heat needed to melt the solid at its melting point will come from the warmer water sample. This implies

q_{1} +q_{2} =-q_{3} -----eqution 1

where,

q_{1} is the heat absorbed by the solid at 0⁰C

q_{2} is the heat absorbed by the liquid at 0⁰C

q_{3} the heat lost by the warmer water sample

Important equations to be used in solving this problem

q=m *c*\delta {T}, where -----equation 2

q is heat absorbed/lost

m is mass of the sample

c is specific heat of water, = 4.18 J/0⁰C

\delta {T} is change in temperature

Again,

q=n*\delta {_f_u_s} -------equation 3

where,

q is heat absorbed

n is the number of moles of water

tex]\delta {_f_u_s}[/tex] is the molar heat of fusion of water, = 6.01 kJ/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> calculate how many moles of water you have in the 100.0-g sample

=237g *\frac{1 mole H_{2} O}{18g} = 13.167 moles of H_{2}O

<u>Step 3: </u>calculate how much heat is needed to allow the sample to go from solid at 218⁰C to liquid at 0⁰C

q_{1} = 13.167 moles *6.01\frac{KJ}{mole} = 79.13KJ

This means that equation (1) becomes

79.13 KJ + q_{2} = -q_{3}

<u>Step 4:</u> calculate the final temperature of the water

79.13KJ+M_{sample} *C*\delta {T_{sample}} =-M_{water} *C*\delta {T_{water}

Substitute in the values; we will have,

79.13KJ + 237*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-218}) = -350*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-100})

79.13 kJ + 990.66J* (T_{f}-218}) = -1463J*(T_{f}-100})

Convert the joules to kilo-joules to get

79.13 kJ + 0.99066KJ* (T_{f}-218}) = -1.463KJ*(T_{f}-100})

79.13 + 0.99066T_{f} -215.96388= -1.463T_{f}+146.3

collect like terms,

2.45366T_{f} = 283.133

∴T_{f} = = 115.4 ⁰C

Approximately the final temperature of the mixture is 115 ⁰C

1. An excited lithium atom emits a red light with wavelength a = 671nm. What is the corresponding photon energy? hc (6.63 x 10-3
Rudiy27

Answer:

 E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation

          E = h f

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

          c = λ f

we substitute

          E = h c /λ

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

          λ = 671 nm = 671 10⁻⁹ m

let's calculate

          E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ /671 10⁻⁹

          E = 2,964 10⁻¹⁹ J
