Cryogenics has the potential to be useful in a variety of fields, including medicine. Suppose you have engineered a method to su

ccessfully deep-freeze and thaw human organs using liquid nitrogen without any freezing damage to the cells and tissue structure. How much heat must be removed from a liver (1.5 kg) to drop its temperature from 310 K to 180 K and freeze the tissue? For liquids and solids, heat capacity at constant pressure, Cp, is approximately equal to heat capacity at constant volume, Cv.

Explanation:

It is known that the specific heat capacity of Liver (C_{p}) is 3.59 kJ kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

It is given that :

Initial temperature of Liver = Body temperature = 37^{o}C = 310 K

Final temperature of Liver = 180 K

Relation between heat energy, mass, and change in temperature is as follows.

                        Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                    Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

                    Q = 1.5 kg \times 3.59 kJ/kg.K \times (310 - 180) K

                         =  700.05 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that amount of heat which must be removed from the liver is 700.05 kJ.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

AlCl3 + 3Na > Al + 3NaCl

Explanation:

AlCl3+Na → Al + NaCl

Al =1 Al=1

Cl =3 Cl = 1

Na=1. Na = 1

so balance

and it would be

Alcl3 + 3Na → Al + 3NaCl

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Manganese commonly occurs in nature as a mineral. The extraction of manganese from the carbonite mineral rhodochrosite, involves a two-step process. In the first step, manganese (II) carbonate and oxygen react to form manganese (IV) oxide and carbon dioxide:

2MnCO_3(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+2CO_2(g)

In the second step, manganese (IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxide:

3MnO_2(s)+4Al(s)\rightarrow 3Mn(s)+2Al_2O_3(s)

Write the net chemical equation for the production of manganese from manganese (II) carbonate, oxygen and aluminum. Be sure your equation is balanced.

Answer : The net chemical equation for the production of manganese is:

6MnCO_3(s)+3O_2(g)+8Al(s)\rightarrow 6CO_2(g)+6Mn(s)+4Al_2O_3(s)

Explanation :

The given two chemical reactions are:

(1) 2MnCO_3(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+2CO_2(g)

(2) 3MnO_2(s)+4Al(s)\rightarrow 3Mn(s)+2Al_2O_3(s)

First we are multiplying reaction 1 by 3, and reaction 2 by 2, we get:

(1)

(2) 6MnO_2(s)+8Al(s)\rightarrow 6Mn(s)+4Al_2O_3(s)

Now we are adding both the reactions, we get the overall chemical reaction.

6MnCO_3(s)+3O_2(g)+6MnO_2(s)+8Al(s)\rightarrow 6MnO_2(s)+6CO_2(g)+6Mn(s)+4Al_2O_3(s)

The  MnO_2 is common on both side, by cancelling it, we get:

The net chemical equation for the production of manganese is:

6MnCO_3(s)+3O_2(g)+8Al(s)\rightarrow 6CO_2(g)+6Mn(s)+4Al_2O_3(s)
