Answer:

Explanation:

The average atomic mass for any element will be closest to the average atomic mass of the __different______ isotopes.

To calculate the average atomic mass of any element, the mass spectrometry method helps to determine the proportion/percentage/fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature. The proportion is called the geonormal abundance or abundance. From this, the average atomic mass of an element from different isotopes can be calculated.

Based on your knowledge of energy conservation, which of the following statements is true?

Julli [10]

C. both a and b

If a light bulb can last longer with the same amount of energy it is given, that means it can use less energy to do the same job compared to one that does not last longer with the same amount of energy it is given. It is much like how a more fuel efficient car will be able to go farther on the same tank of gas, but if you pair it with a car that doesn't have as great of an mpg, when they go the same distance, the car with the greater mpg spends less fuel.

If you don't have to use the energy when you aren't utilizing it, then you can conserve the energy for when you do need it.

How are the molecular mass and molar mass of a compound similar and how are they different?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Similarities: both state the mass of chemical species and they have the same numerical value

Differences: molecular mass refers to one single molecule and molar mass refers to one mole of a molecule

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the value of the mass of each molecule and it is measured in mass units (u). It is calculated adding the mass of each atom of the molecule.

The molar mass is the value of the mass of one mole of molecules, which means the mass of 6.022140857 × 10²³ molecules. The unit is g/mol.

For example, we can consider the methane molecule, which has the chemical formula of CH₄:

Molecular mass CH₄ = C mass + 4 x (H mass)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 12.01 + 4 x (1.01)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 u

Now to calculate the molar mass we multiply the value of the molecular mass by the Avogadro number and convert the units to g/mol:

Molar mass CH₄: 16.05 x $\frac{1}{6.022140857 x 10x^{23} } g$ x 6.022140857 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 g / mol

The The thermal conductivity of a sheet of rigid, extruded insulation is reported to be k=0.029 W/ m measured temperature differ

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Heat flux = 13.92 W/m2

Rate of heat transfer throug the 3m x 3m sheet = 125.28 W

The thermal resistance of the 3x3m sheet is 0.0958 K/W

Explanation:

The rate of heat transfer through a 3m x 3m sheet of insulation can be calculated as:

$q=-k*A*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}\\\\q=-0.029\frac{W}{m*K}*(3m*3m)*\frac{12K}{0.025m} =125.28W$

The heat flux can be defined as the amount of heat flow by unit of area.

Using the previous calculation, we can estimate the heat flux:

$heat \, flux=\frac{q}{A}=\frac{125.28 W}{9 m^{2} } =13.92 W/m^{2}$

It can also be calculated as:

$q/A=-k*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}$

The thermal resistance can be expressed as

$\Delta T=R_t*Q\\R_t=\Delta T/Q=\frac{\Delta X}{k*A}$

For the 3m x 3m sheet, the thermal resistance is

$R_t = \frac{\Delta X}{k*A}=\frac{0.025m}{0.029W/mK*9m^{2}}=0.0958 \, K/W$
