A 2.5kg metal bar is quenched from 800°C by immersion in a closed insulated tank of water containing 50 litres of water initiall

y at 20°C. Assuming that both water and the metal bar can be treated as incompressible, determine the final temperature of the metal bar and the water, whose specific heat capacities are 0.500 and 4.18 kJ/kg.K respectively, and hence, using Gibbs' equation, calculate the amount of entropy produced by the quenching process.

Answer:

The amount of entropy produced by the quenching process is 0.303 kJ/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.5 kg

Temperature = 800°C

The mass of 50 L of water is 50 kg

Temperature = 20°C

Energy = 4.18 kJ/kg.K

If the final temperature of the metal bar and water is T₀°C, then

The heat lost by the bar = heat gained by water

m_{w}C_{w}(T_{0}-T)=m_{B}c_{B}(T-T_{0})

Put the value into the formula

4.18\times50(T-20)=0.5\times2.5(80-T)

209T-4180=1000-1.25T

210.25T=5180

T=\dfrac{5180}{210.25}

T=24.64^{\circ}C

Now, heat exchange between the systems

\Delta Q=m_{w}C_{w}(T-20)

\Delta Q=4.18\times50(24.64-20)

\Delta Q=969.76\ kJ

We need to calculate the entropy

Using formula of entropy

S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{\dfrac{T+T_{0}}{2}+T'}-\dfrac{\Delta Q}{\dfrac{T+T_{0}}{2}+T'}

Where, T' = 273.15\ K

Put the value into the formula

S=\dfrac{969.76}{\dfrac{20+24.64}{2}+273.15}}-\dfrac{969.76}{\dfrac{80+24.64}{2}+273.15}

S=3.28209293668-2.97956800934

S=0.303\ kJ/K

Hence, The amount of entropy produced by the quenching process is 0.303 kJ/K.

What force must be used to do 224 Joules of work on an object over a distance of 32 meters?
cestrela7 [59]
7.625 Newtons

work = force× distance
Newtons is an accepted value for force

so take the total 224 joules and decide by distance 32 meters to find force in Newtons

Describe the octet rule in terms of noble-gas configurations and potential energy
Wittaler [7]
Elements will gain or lose electrons to form a noble gas configuration. Atoms that meet the octet rule are stable because their valence electrons have a relatively low potential energy. Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.
