Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency  of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

 \epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

 0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}

 T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464

 T_C= 0.75 \times 464

      T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

 T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464

 T_C= 0.58 \times 464

 T_C= 269.12\ K

microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 6.3 rev/min. what is this in revolutions per second? (you do not need to enter any uni
levacccp [35]

The microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 0.105 rev/s.

The microwave rotation is the number of revolutions in a unit of time. To change the unit for angular velocity, assume that the quantity is multiplied by the unit it has. Then change to the desired units. The angular velocity is denoted by ω and has a magnitude of 6.3 rev/min.

ω = 6.3 rev/min

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{1 \: min}

  • 1 minute = 60 seconds
  • The revolution unit didn't change

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

\omega = \frac{6.3 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

ω = 0.105 rev/s

Consider the addition of an electron to the following atoms from the fourth period. Rank the atoms in order from the most negati
Murrr4er [49]
Electron configurations:

Ge: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p2 => 6 electrons in the outer shell

Br: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p5 => 7 electrons in the outer shell

Kr: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6 => 8 electrons in the outer shell

The electron affinity or propension to attract electrons is given by the electronic configuration. Remember that the most stable configuration is that were the last shell is full, i.e. it has 8 electrons.

The closer an atom is to reach the 8 electrons in the outer shell the bigger the electron affinity.

Of the three elements, Br needs only 1 electron to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has the biggest electron affinity (the least negative).

Ge: needs 2 electrons to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has a smaller (more negative) electron affinity than Br.

Kr, which is a noble gas, has 8 electrons and is not willing to attract more electrons at all, the it has the lowest (more negative) electron affinity of all three to the extension that really the ion is so unstable that it does not make sense to talk about a number for the electron affinity of this atom.
