You are burning wood to heat water for your industrial process. What is the mass of wood required to raise the temperature of 10

00 kg of water from 25.0 to 100.0 °C (in kg with at least 3 sig figs.)? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g°C, and the lower heating value of dry wood is 16.72 MJ/kg.

Answer:

18,8kg of wood

Explanation:

The energy you need to to raise the temperature of 1000 kg of water from 25.0 to 100.0 °C is:

q = C×m×ΔT

Where: q is heat, C is specific heat of water (4,184J/g°C), m is mass in grams (1000x10³g), and ΔT is 100,0°C - 25,0°C = 75,0°C

Replacing:

q = 4,184J/g°C×1000x10³g×75,0°C

<u><em>q = 3,14x10⁸ J of heat are required</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Now, if the heating value of dry wood is 16,72 MJ/kg = 16,72x10⁶ J/kg, mass of wood required is:

3,14x10⁸J × (1kg / 16,72x10⁶ J) = <em>18,8 kg of wood are required</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

According to naming rules, the types of compound that use prefixes in their names are ________.
arlik [135]

Answer:

Covalent compounds.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, when forming chemical bonds in order to form compounds, we say that if electrons are shared, covalent compounds are to be formed and they usually have subscripts that need prefixes to be named, for instance phosphorous pentachloride (PCl5), dichlorine heptoxide (Cl2O7), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and many others.

Regards.

how many moles of solute are contained in 500.00 milliliter solution that has a concentration of 0.35M
igomit [66]

1.75 moles of Solute or 1.75n.

To find this, you'll need to use the molarity equation which is M = \frac{n}{v}

List the given items to organize better:

M (Molarity) = .35

V (Volume) = 5L [must always be in Liters]

n (Moles) = ?

Now, for the equation, substitute the variables with the given numbers:

.35 = \frac{n}{5}

Isolate the variable by multiplying the volume, 5, onto both sides. This will give you the answer of:

1.75 = n

Hope this helps!

A sample from one of Earth's oceans has a salinity of 34. What is the concentration of dissolved salts in this sample of seawate
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm

Explanation:

Given:

Salinity of ocean water = 34

Find:

Concentration of dissolved salts

Computation:

Salinity of ocean water = 34 g/l

1g/l = 1001.14 ppm

Concentration of dissolved salts = 1001.14 ppm x 34

Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm
