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.

Cobalt-60 is produced by neutron activation. in this process, one neutron is absorbed by the nucleus of the parent isotope. what
kkurt [141]

The parent isotope is cobalt-59 (see the picture below).

The mass number is 59 and atomic number is 27 of the parent isotope.

Neutron activation is the process in which atomic nucleus capture free neutron or neutrons.

Cobalt-60  is produced in nuclear reactors in process of neutron activation from parent isotope cobalt-59 (see the picture below).

Atomic number (Z) is total number of protons and mass number (A) is total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus.

Cobalt-59 and cobalt-60 are the isotopes of chemical element cobalt.

Isotopes are chemical elements with same atomic number (Z), but different mass number (different number of neutrons).
