Consider a 10 gram sample of a liquid with specific heat 2 J/gK. By the addition of 400 J, the liquid increases its temperature

by 10 K and then boils. Half of the liquid boils away before all the heat is used up. What is the heat of vaporization of the liquid?A.10 J/gB.20 J/gC.80 J/gD.200 J/gE.40 J/g© 2018.Grand Canyon University. All Rights Reserved.

40 J/g is the heat of vaporization of the liquid.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given that mass of liquid sample: m = 10 g

And, Specific heat of the liquid: S = 2 J/g K

Also, the increase in the temperature of the liquid,  \Delta T = T_{2}-T_{1} = 10 K

Therefore, the total amount of heat energy required is given by:

              q_{1} = m \times S \times\left(T_{2}-T_{1}\right) = 10 \times 2 \times 10 = 200 J

According to the given data in the question,

Total heat energy supplied, q = 400 J

Rest of heat would be q_{2}=q-q_{1}=400-200=200 \mathrm{J}

Now, 200 J vaporizes the mass, half of the liquid from full portion boiled away. So,

                 m^{\prime} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \mathrm{g}

Latent heat of vaporization of the liquid is L_{v}. It can be calculated as below,

                       q_{2} = m^{\prime} L_{v}

                       L_{v} = \frac{q_{2}}{m^{\prime}} = \frac{200}{5} = 40 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g}

Which statement accurately represents the arrangement of electrons in Bohr’s atomic model?
noname [10]

Answer: Electrons move around the nucleus in fixed orbits of equal levels of energy

Explanation:

The statement that accurately represents the arrangement of electrons in Bohr’s atomic model is that the electrons move around the nucleus in fixed orbits of equal levels of energy.

It should be noted that the electrons have a fixed energy level when they travel around the nucleus in with energies which varies for different levels.

Higher energy levels are depicted by the orbits that are far from the nucleus. There's emission of light when the electrons then return back to a lower energy level.

A drag racer starts from the rest and accelerates at 7.4m/s^2.how far will he travel in 2.0 seconds?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

14.8 m

Explanation:

S= ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where u = initial velocity

S= (0 \frac{m}{s})(2s) + \frac{1}{2}(7.4\frac{m}{s^{2} })(2s^{2})

S=  \frac{1}{2}(7.4\frac{m}{s^{2} })(2s^{2})

S=14.8 m

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?
marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.
