How many grams of perchloric acid, HClO4, are contained in 37.6 g of 70.5 wt% aqueous perchloric acid? How many grams of water a
1 answer:
Answer :
The mass of perchloric acid is, 26.5 grams.
The mass of water in the same solution is, 11.1 grams
Explanation :
As we are given that 70.5 wt % aqueous perchloric acid that means 70.5 grams of perchloric acid present in 100 grams of solution.
Now we have to determine the mass of perchloric acid in 37.6 grams of aqueous perchloric acid.
As, 100 grams of aqueous perchloric acid (solution) contains 70.5 grams of perchloric acid.
So, 37.6 grams of aqueous perchloric acid (solution) contains grams of perchloric acid.
Thus, the mass of perchloric acid is, 26.5 grams.
Now we have to determine the mass of water are in the same solution.
Total mass of solution = 37.6 g
Mass of perchloric acid = 26.5 g
Mass of water = Total mass of solution - Mass of perchloric acid
Mass of water = 37.6 g - 26.5 g
Mass of water = 11.1 g
Thus, the mass of water in the same solution is, 11.1 grams

Answer:
15.24°C
Explanation:
The quality of any heat pump pumping heat from cold to hot place is determined by its coefficient of performance (COP) defined as
Where Q_{in} is heat delivered into the hot place, in this case, the house, and W is the work used to pump heat
You can think of this quantity as similar to heat engine's efficiency
In our case, the COP of our heater is
Where T_{house} = 24°C and T_{out} is temperature outside
To achieve maximum heating, we will have to use the most efficient heat pump, and, according to the second law of thermodynamics, nothing is more efficient that Carnot Heat Pump
Which has COP of:
So we equate the COP of our heater with COP of Carnot heater
Rearrange the equation
Solve this simple quadratic equation, and you should get that the lowest outdoor temperature that could still allow heat to be pumped into your house would be
15.24°C
