Answer:

39.4 kJ

Explanation:

Given mass = 25.0 g

Specific heat of ammonia (g) = 4.7 J/g.K

Specific heat of ammonia (l) = 2.2 J /g.K

ΔHvap  = 23.5 x 10³ J /mol

Heating liquid ammonia from -65 °C to -33.4°C

Q₁ = m s ΔT  =  = 25.0 g * 4.7 J/g.K * [-33.4 - (-65)] °C = 3713 J

Evaporating 25 g of ammonia at -33.4°C

Molar mass of ammonia = 17 g/mol

Thus, moles = 25 / 17 moles

Q₂ = (25 / 17) mol * ΔHvap   = 1.470 mol * 23.5 x 10³ J /mol  = 34558.8 J

Heating NH₃(g) from -33.4°C  to -12.0°C

Q₃ = m s ΔT  =  = 25.0 g * 2.2 J/g.K * [-12.0 - (-33.4)] °C = 1177 J    

<u>Total heat energy = Q₁ + Q₂ +Q₃  = 39448.8 J  = 39.4 kJ (As 1 J = 10⁻³ kJ)</u>

Why is pure oxygen stored as a liquid under pressure
yKpoI14uk [10]
<h2>Answer: It is highly flammable.</h2>

Explanation:

Liquid oxygen is created from oxygen atoms that have been forced to assume the liquid state due to <u>compression (change of pressure) and temperature modification. </u>

Specifically this is achieved by cooling the oxygen enough to change it to its liquid state. So,<u> as the temperature drops, the atoms move more slowly because they have less energy. </u>

In this sense, in the liquid state it is easier to store and mobilize oxygen, taking into account that it is a highly flammable gas.

11. Reflecting telescopes are popular because they're _______ than a refracting telescope.
Anon25 [30]
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece.  (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build".  (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).

Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium.  However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.

How would a spinning disk's kinetic energy change if its moment of inertia was five times larger but its angular speed was five
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

<em>The kinetic energy of a spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Let us first consider the initial characteristics of the angular motion of the disk

moment of inertia = I

angular speed = ω

For the second case, we consider the characteristics to now be

moment of inertia = 5I  (five times larger)

angular speed = ω/5  (five times smaller)

Recall that the kinetic energy of a spinning body is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}

therefore,

for the first case, the K.E. is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}

and for the second case, the K.E. is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}(5I)(\frac{w}{5} )^{2}   = \frac{5}{50}Iw^{2}

KE = \frac{1}{10}Iw^{2}

<em>this is one-tenth the kinetic energy before its spinning characteristics were changed.</em>

<em>This implies that the kinetic energy of the spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.</em>

A housekeeper is cleaning the kitchen and decides to to use a ladder to reach a top shelf. As he/she is cleaning he/she is start
pshichka [43]

The amount of gravitational force between both objects will be the same.

The magnitude of the Earth's gravitational force exerted on the housekeeper is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = mg

where;

<em>m </em><em>is the mass of the housekeeper</em>

<em>g </em><em>is acceleration due to gravity</em>

According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite.

The force exerted on the housekeeper by the Earth is equal in magnitude to the force exerted on the Earth by the housekeeper.

F_{H} = - F_{E}

The two forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

Thus, the correct option is " the amount of gravitational force between both objects will be the same"

<em>The</em><em> missing part</em><em> of the </em><em>question </em><em>is below:</em>

a. the Earth exerts the largest amount of gravitational force

b. the housekeeper exerts the largest amount of gravitational force

c. the amount of gravitational force between both objects will be the same
