If you heated 2.5 kg of water using 100 kcal of energy, then what would be the temperature increase of the water (degrees C)? 25

0 degrees C

Answer:

40°C.

Explanation:

A calorie is defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water through 1 °C. In the same way, a kcal would be defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water through 1 °C.

Based on this definition, 100kcal will increase the emperature of the water in:

100kcal / 2,5kg = <em>40°C</em>

<em></em>

One way to determine the degree of saturation of a solid-liquid solution is to drop a crystal of the solute into the solution.
Dafna1 [17]

The answer is D: Saturated.

A saturated solution is one in which the exact maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.  So, new solute will not dissolve in the solution.  In contrast, an unsaturated solution can hold more solute, so if that option were correct, the crystal would have dissolved.

The other two terms are a bit more complicated.  A supersaturated solution is one holding an amount of solute above the sustainable limit.  Because of that, when more solute is added, the solution will immediately adjust, and some solute will come out of solution in a precipitate.  Because the crystal isn't growing, we can eliminate this option.

A concentrated solution is one holding a relatively large amount of solute.  However, you can have concentrated solutions that are saturated and unconcentrated (the word for this is dilute) solutions that aren't saturated.  Therefore, we can say that because the crystal doesn't dissolve, this solution is saturated, but we can't say with certainty that it is concentrated.

Because the first three options are invalid, as described above, while the scenario does describe a saturated solution, D is the correct answer.

If have a volume of 18 L of a gas at a temperature of 272 K and a pressure of 90 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if ra
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

P₂ ≅ 100 atm (1 sig. fig. based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm)

Explanation:

Given:

P₁ = 90 atm                    P₂ = ?

V₁ = 18 Liters(L)              L₂ = 12 Liters(L)      

=> decrease volume => increase pressure

=> volume ratio that will increase 90 atm is (18L/12L)                                                                  

T₁ = 272 Kelvin(K)          T₂ = 274 Kelvin(K)

=>  increase temperature => increase pressure

=> temperature ratio that will increase 90 atm is (274K/272K)

n₁ = moles = constant    n₂ = n₁ = constant

P₂ = 90 atm x (18L/12L) x (274K/272K) = 135.9926471 atm (calculator)

By rule of sig. figs., the final answer should be rounded to an accuracy equal to the 'measured' data value having the least number of sig. figs. This means P₂ ≅ 100 atm based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm.

What is a saturted solution
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Please find the definition and further explanation below

Explanation:

Based on the ability for the solvent (liquid substance) to dissolve a solute (solid substance), a solution can either be unsaturated, saturated or supersaturated. A SATURATED SOLUTION is that which contains the maximum amount of solute a solvent can possibly dissolve.

In other words, a saturated solution can no longer dissolve anymore solute, and hence, any further solute added forms crystals or makes the solution supersaturated.
