Answer:

(a)  0.72 lbm· ft/s²

(b)  20.3 kPa,  2.94 lbf / in²

(c)  98.6 ºF,  310 K

(d)  1.5 x 10⁻² J,  6.1 x 10⁻² cal

Explanation:

Our strategy here will be to find the conversion factors for the quantities we are asked in each part, and perform the calculations.

(a) 10,000 dynes to lbm ·ft/s²

here we are asked to convert  the  force of 10,000 dynes to lbm ·ft/s². Recall that F= ma ( m= mass, a = acceleration), thus

10,000 dynes = 10 g cm/s²

converting the force

10,000 g cm/s² x (1 lbm/454 g) x (1 ft / 30.48 cm ) /s² = 0.72 lbm· ft/s²

(b)

1 atm = 101.33 pa

0.2 atm x ( 101.33 kPa ) = 20.3 kPa

1 atm = 14.7 lbf / in²

0.2 atm x ( 14.7 lbf / in² /atm ) = 2.94 lbf / in²

(c) The formula for the conversion from ºC to ºF is:

ºF = 9/5 ºC +32

ºF = 9/5 ( 37ºC) + 32 = 98.6 ºF

K = ºC + 273

K = (37 + 273) K = 310 K

(d) 50 in²·lbm/s² to joules and calories

Since the unit in² ·lbm/s² is not that common, lets convert it using their definition.

These are energy units, and we know the energy is the force times distance. In turn force is mass times acceleration so that the units of energy are mass time distance per time squared.

Joules is the unit of energy  in the metric system.

50 in² lbm/s² = 50 in²x ( 2.54 cm/in x 1m /100cm)² x (1lbm x 0.454 Kg/lbm)/s²

= 1.5 x 10⁻² Kg m²/² =  1.5 x 10⁻² J

To convert to cal it wilñl be easier to use the value in joules just calculated:

1.5 x 10⁻² J x  (4.184 cal/J) = 6.1 x 10⁻² cal

Conduct metric Titration of H_2(SO_4) and Ba(OH)_2 Write an equation (including states of matter) for the reaction between H_2(S
meriva

Answer:

a) H₂SO₄ + Ba(OH)₂ ⇄ BaSO₄(s) + 2 H₂O(l)

b) H₂SO₄, H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻. H₂O, H⁺, OH⁻.

c) H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻

d) As the titration takes place, reaction [1] proceeds to the right. The conductivity of the solution decreases because the amount of H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻ decreases. The formed solid is barium sulfate BaSO₄. Since BaSO₄ is very insoluble, the main responsible for conductivity are still H⁺, HSO₄⁻ and SO₄²⁻,

e) At the equivalence point equivalent amounts of H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂ react. The conducting species are Ba²⁺, SO₄²⁻, H⁺ and OH⁻.

f) After the equivalence point there is an excess of Ba(OH)₂. The ions Ba²⁺ and OH⁻ are responsible for the increase in the conductivity, being the major conducting species.

Explanation:

a) Write an equation (including states of matter) for the reaction between H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂.

The <em>balanced equation</em> is:

H₂SO₄ + Ba(OH)₂ ⇄ BaSO₄(s) + 2 H₂O(l)   [1]

b) At the very start of the titration, before any titrant has been added to the beaker, what is present in the solution?

In the beginning there is H₂SO₄ and the ions that come from its <em>dissociation reactions</em>: H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻. There is also H₂O and a very small amount of H⁺ and OH⁻ coming from its <em>ionization</em>.

H₂SO₄(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + HSO₄⁻(aq)

HSO₄⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

H₂O(l)  ⇄ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

c) What is the conducting species in this initial solution?

The main responsible for conductivity are the <em>ions</em> coming from H₂SO₄: H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻.

d) Describe what happens as titrant is added to the beaker. Why does the conductivity of the solution decrease? What is the identity of the solid formed? What is the conducting species present in the beaker?

As the titration takes place, reaction [1] proceeds to the right. The conductivity of the solution decreases because the amount of H⁺, HSO₄⁻, SO₄²⁻ decreases. The formed solid is barium sulfate BaSO₄. Since BaSO₄ is very insoluble, the main responsible for conductivity are still H⁺, HSO₄⁻ and SO₄²⁻,

e) What happens when the conductivity value reaches its minimum value (which is designated as the equivalence point for this type of titration)? What is the conducting species in the beaker?

At the <em>equivalence point</em> equivalent amounts of H₂SO₄ and Ba(OH)₂ react. Only BaSO₄ and H₂O are present, and since they are <em>weak electrolytes</em>, there is a small amount of ions to conduct electricity. The conducting species are Ba²⁺ and SO₄²⁻ coming from BaSO₄ and H⁺ and OH⁻ coming from H₂O.

f) Describe what happens at additional titrant is added past the equivalence point. Why does the conductivity of the solution increase? What is the conducting species present in the beaker?

After the equivalence point there is an excess of Ba(OH)₂. The ions Ba²⁺ and OH⁻ are responsible for the increase in the conductivity, being the major conducting species.

The combustion of carbohydrates and the combustion of fats are both exothermic processes, yet the combustion of carbohydrates is
Julli [10]

Explanation:

There are two aspects of a reaction:

Thermodynamics:

Combustion of the compound is reaction with oxygen.

The carbohydrates contain more content of oxygen as compared to fats.

Hence, carbohydrates have lot of oxygen content which are already partially oxidized as compared to fats. Hence, combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.

Kinetics:

The molecular reacts also shows that the combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
