Elena L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Sugar, sucrose (C12H22O11: a disaccharide, composed of the two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose), is odorless, that is, it lacks odor. When heated a phase change occurs resulting in melting of a thick syrup.

This means that the steel bar lost 14900 J of thermal energy. What is the change in temperature of the steel bar? Recall that th
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

ΔT=-747,13°C

Explanation:

Sensible heat is<em> the amount of thermal energy that is required to change the temperature of an object</em>, the equation for calculating the heat change is  given by:

Q=msΔT

where:

  • Q, heat that has been absorbed or realeased by the substance [J]
  • m, mass of the substance [g]
  • s, specific heat capacity [J/g°C] (
  • ΔT, changes in the substance temperature [°C]

To solve the problem, we clear ΔT of the equation and then replace our data:

Q=msΔT

ΔT=Q/ms

ΔT=\frac{-14900 J}{40,7g*0,49\frac{J}{gC} }=-747,13°C

<em>(Note that Q=-14900 J because there is a </em><u><em>LOST</em></u><em> of thermal energy)</em>

Thus, the change in temperature of the steel bar is -747,13°C, meaning that the temperature of the bar decreases.

An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

a) a0 was 46.2 grams

b) It will take 259 years

c) The fossil is 1845 years old

Explanation:

<em>An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago?</em>

A = A0 * (1/2)^(t/h)

⇒ with A = the final amount = 46.2 grams

⇒ A0 = the original amount

⇒ t = time = 8 hours

⇒ h = half-life time = 3.2 hours

46.2 = Ao*(1/2)^(8/3.2)

Ao = 261.35 grams

<em>Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It is an alpha emitter with a half-life of 432 years. How long will it take in years for 34.0% of an Am-241 sample to decay?</em>  

t = (ln(0.66))-0.693) * 432 = 259 years

It will take 259 years

<em>A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 80% that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. How old is the fossil?</em>

<em />

t = (ln(0.80))-0.693) * 5730 = 1845

The fossil is 1845 years old
