How is radiation related to electromagnetic waves and thermal energy?

1 answer:

7 0

Well, radiation, in terms of physics, is the emission of electromagnetic waves

now, electromagnetic waves can take many different forms like visible light, radio waves, gamma radiation, ultraviolet light. Depending on its wavelength or frequency

thermal energy or heat generally takes the form of infrared light and all light is an form of electromagnetic wave

The combustion of 0.570 g of benzoic acid (ΔHcomb = 3,228 kJ/mol; MW = 122.12 g/mol) in a bomb calorimeter increased the tempera

torisob [31]

Answer:

The temperature change from the combustion of the glucose is 6.097°C.

Explanation:

Benzoic acid;

Enthaply of combustion of benzoic acid = 3,228 kJ/mol

Mass of benzoic acid = 0.570 g

Moles of benzoic acid = $\frac{0.570 g}{122.12 g/mol}=0.004667 mol$

Energy released by 0.004667 moles of benzoic acid on combustion:

$Q=3,228 kJ/mol \times 0.004667 mol=15.0668 kJ=15,066.8 J$

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C

Change in temperature of the calorimeter = ΔT = 2.053°C

$Q=C\times \Delta T$

$15,066.8 J=C\times 2.053^oC$

$C=7,338.92 J/^oC$

Glucose:

Enthaply of combustion of glucose= 2,780 kJ/mol.

Mass of glucose=2.900 g

Moles of glucose = $\frac{2.900 g}{180.16 g/mol}=0.016097 mol$

Energy released by the 0.016097 moles of calorimeter combustion:

$Q'=2,780 kJ/mol \times 0.016097 mol=44.7491 kJ=44,749.1 J$

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C (calculated above)

Change in temperature of the calorimeter on combustion of glucose = ΔT'

$Q'=C\times \Delta T'$

$44,749.1 J=7,338.92 J/^oC\times \Delta T'$

$\Delta T'=6.097^oC$

The temperature change from the combustion of the glucose is 6.097°C.

Neopentyl alcohol, (ch3)3cch2oh, cannot be dehydrated to an alkene without rearrangement. what is the chief product of dehydrati

emmainna [20.7K]

Dehydration is removal of water.

In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.

In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].

The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.

The process or mechanism can be understood as:

so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene
