Answer:
It helps the body remove heat through sweating.
Explanation:
When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.
The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.
B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.
C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.
D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.
Answer:
Option A.
Lower air pressure results in a lower boiling point
Explanation:
This is because in an open system, the lower the pressure the lesser the energy that will be required for boiling point. The is little or no collision of air molecules with the surface of the liquid
But if there is increase in pressure, more energy will be required to get to boiling point because there will be strong collision between air molecules and surface of the liquid.
<u>Answer:</u> The amount of oxygen gas consumed is 0.525 moles
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Moles of propane burned = 0.150 moles
The chemical equation for the combustion of propane follows:
![C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C_3H_8%2B5O_2%5Crightarrow%203CO_2%2B4H_2O)
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of propane reacts with 5 moles of oxygen gas
So, 0.150 moles of propane will react with =
of oxygen gas
Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed is 0.525 moles
