Answer:

Oil has the smaller heat capacity. The effectiveness of the heat exchanger is 0.80.

Explanation:

Part 1:

In order to know which fluid has the smaller heat capacity we need to consider the heat equation below:

Q = CΔT, where Q is the heat exchanged, C is the heat capacity and ΔT is the variation in temperature.

As the heat exchange is the same for both fluids, the smaller the temperature variation, the smaller the heat capacity.

Water: ΔT = 120 °F  

Oil: ΔT = 80 °F  

Therefore, oil is the fluid with the smallest heat capacity.

Part 2:

The effectiveness of a counter-flow heat exchanger is given by the equation bellow:

E = \frac{Th1 - Th2}{Th1 - Tc1} \\

Th1: initial temperature of the hot fluid

Th2: final temperature of the hot

Tc1: initial temperature of the cold fluid

E = \frac{220 - 100}{220 - 70} \\E = 0.8

The atomic masses of any two elements contain the same number of
den301095 [7]

Answer:

They contain of atoms

Explanation:

That's because atomic weights or masses of each atom of each element are proportional to each other, the same number of atoms of each element will give masses that are also proportional to each other. If you start with 20 oxygen atoms, you will need 40 hydrogen atoms to make the water and you will get 20 molecules of water.

The diagram shows a simple lipid.
kifflom [539]
This is not a phospholipid as it does not contain a phosphate group at the end of the chain, and is not a triglyceride as there is no glyceryl moiety. Each carbon bonded to hydrogens makes the maximum number of C-H bonds possible, therefore there are no multiple bonds between carbons and the lipid is saturated. Therefore the answer is A.
Hope this helps!
