Which statement best defines specific heat?

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

D. The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

Explanation:

Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat needed to raise a unit of mass of a compound by one degree on the temperature scale.

The gram is constituted as a unit of mass, and the degree Celsius as a unit of temperature, therefore, the specific heat can be defined as the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

<h2>Answer: C) 1s²2s²2p⁶</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

A noble gas has 8 electrons between the p and s orbitals of the outer shell. Helium is the exception because it only has two electrons.

<h3> ∴ 1s²2s²2p⁶ is the noble gas (neon)</h3>

Where the oxygen comes from the air (21% O2 and 79% N2). If oxygen is fed from air in excess of the stoichiometric amount requir

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$y_{O2} =4.3$ %

Explanation:

The ethanol combustion reaction is:

$C_{2}H_{5} OH+3O_{2}$ → $2CO_{2}+3H_{2}O$

If we had the amount (x moles) of ethanol, we would calculate the oxygen moles required:

$x*1.10(excess)*\frac{3 O_{2}moles }{etOHmole}$

Dividing the previous equation by x:

$1.10(excess)*\frac{3 O_{2}moles}{etOHmole}=3.30\frac{O_{2}moles}{etOHmole}$

We would need 3.30 oxygen moles per ethanol mole.

Then we apply the composition relation between O2 and N2 in the feed air:

$3.30(O_{2} moles)*\frac{0.79(N_{2} moles)}{0.21(O_{2} moles)}=121.414 (N_{2} moles )$

Then calculate the oxygen moles number leaving the reactor, considering that 0.85 ethanol moles react and the stoichiometry of the reaction:

$3.30(O_{2} moles)-0.85(etOHmoles)*\frac{3(O_{2} moles)}{1(etOHmoles)} =0.75O_{2} moles$

Calculate the number of moles of CO2 and water considering the same:

$0.85(etOHmoles)*\frac{3(H_{2}Omoles)}{1(etOHmoles)}=2.55(H_{2}Omoles)$

$0.85(etOHmoles)*\frac{2(CO_{2}moles)}{1(etOHmoles)}=1.7(CO_{2}moles)$

The total number of moles at the reactor output would be:

$N=1.7(CO2)+12.414(N2)+2.55(H2O)+0.75(O2)\\ N=17.414(Dry-air-moles)$

So, the oxygen mole fraction would be:

$y_{O_{2}}=\frac{0.75}{17.414}=0.0430=4.3$ %

Why do solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not?

Vinvika [58]

Solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not because <span>the molecules in solids maintain a regular pattern and only vibrate, or move very slowly. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". I hope the answer has come to your help.</span>
