What is the activation energy (Q) for a vacancy formation if 10 moles of a metal have 2.3 X 10^13 vacancies at 425°C?

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

$Activation\ Energy=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Explanation:

Using the expression shown below as:

$N_v=N\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{k\times T}$

Where,

$N_v$ is the number of vacancies

N is the number of defective sites

k is Boltzmann's constant = $1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K$

${Q_v}$ is the activation energy

T is the temperature

Given that:

$N_v=2.3\times 10^{13}$

N = 10 moles

1 mole = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

So,

N = $10\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=6.023\times 10^{24}$

Temperature = 425°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (425 + 273.15) K = 698.15 K

T = 698.15 K

Applying the values as:

$2.3\times 10^{13}=6.023\times 10^{24}\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$ln[\frac {2.3}{6.023}\times 10^{-11}]=-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$Q_v=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$

What is the composition, in atom percent, of an alloy that consists of 4.5 wt% Pb and 95.5 wt% Sn?

jeka57 [31]

Answer: Option A is correct -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn.

Explanation:

Option A is the only correct option -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn. While option B, which is 7.6 at% Pb and 92.4 at% Sn. and option C, which is 97.4 at% Pb and 2.6 at% Sn. and option D, which is 92.4 at% Pb and 7.6 at% Sn. are wrong.

The water in a 25-m-deep reservoir is kept inside by a 140-m-wide wall whose cross section is an equilateral triangle as shown i

koban [17]

Answer: (a) 9.00 Mega Newtons or 9.00 * 10^6 N

(b) 17.1 m

Explanation: The length of wall under the surface can be given by

$b=25m/sin(60)\\=28.867$

The average pressure on the surface of the wall is the pressure at the centeroid of the equilateral triangular block which can be then be calculated by multiplying it with the Plate Area which will provide us with the Resultant force.

$F(resultant) = Pavg ( A) = (Patm + \rho g h c)*A \\= [100000 N/m^2 + (1000 kg/m^3 * 9.81 m/s^2 * 25m/2)]* (140*25m/sin60)\\= 8.997*10^8 N \\= 9.0*10^8 N$

Noting from the Bernoulli equation that

$Po/\rho g sin60 = 100000/1000 * 9.81* sin(60) = 11.77 m \\ \\$

From the second image attached the distance of the pressure center from the free surface of the water along the surface of the wall is given by:

$Yp = s+\frac{b}{2} +\frac{b^2}{s+\frac{b}{2}+Po/\rho g sin60}= 0+\frac{28.87}{2} +\frac{28.87^2}{0+\frac{28.87}{2}+100000 /1000 *9.81 sin60} = 17.1 m$

Substituting the values gives us the the distance of the surface to be equal to = 17.1 m
