Answer: The size of the ion and the charge of the ion are the factors that affect solubility in water.

Explanation:

Lead lose electrons to become cations. Compounds with small ions tend to be less soluble than compounds with large ions. Large ions have higher solubility. This is because small ions are closely packed so it is difficult for water to break them apart.

Compounds with small ions seemingly have less solubility than those with large ions. The ions in the compound attract each other, and the water molecules attract the ions. Compounds would be soluble in water If the water molecules have a greater or higher attraction to the ions than ions have for each other.

The electron concentration in silicon at T = 300 K is given by

puteri [66]

Answer:

$E=1.44*10^-7-2.6exp(\frac{-x}{18} )v/m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Temperature of silicon $T=300k$

Electron concentration $n(x)=10^{16}\exp (\frac{-x}{18})$

$\frac{dn}{dx}=(10^{16} *(\frac{-1}{16})\exp\frac{-x}{16})$

Electron diffusion coefficient is $Dn = 25cm^2/s \approx 2.5*10^{-3}$

Electron mobility is $\mu n = 960 cm^2/V-s \approx0.096m/V$

Electron current density $Jn = -40 A/cm^2 \approx -40*10^{4}A/m^2$

Generally the equation for the semiconductor is mathematically given by

$Jn=qb_n\frac{dn}{dx}+nq \mu E$

Therefore

$-40*10^{4}=1.6*10^{-19} *(2.5*10^{-3})*(10^{16} *(\frac{-1}{16})\exp\frac{-x}{16})+(10^{16}\exp (\frac{-x}{18}))*1.6*10^{-19}*0.096* E$

$E=\frac{-2.5*10^-^7 exp(\frac{-x}{18})+40*10^{4}}{1.536*10^-4exp(\frac{-x}{18} )}$

$E=1.44*10^-7-2.6exp(\frac{-x}{18} )v/m$

Water vapor at 10bar, 360°C enters a turbine operatingat steady state with a volumetric flow rate of 0.8m3/s and expandsadiabati

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

A) W' = 178.568 KW

B) ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) η = 0.3

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1;T1 = 360 °C

Temperature at state 2;T2 = 160 °C

Pressure at state 1;P1 = 10 bar

Pressure at State 2;P2 = 1 bar

Volumetric flow rate;V' = 0.8 m³/s

A) From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific volume;v1 = 0.287322 m³/kg

Mass flow rate of water vapour at turbine is defined by the formula;

m' = V'/v1

So; m' = 0.8/0.287322

m' = 2.784 kg/s

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h1 = 3179.46 KJ/kg

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h2 = 3115.32 KJ/kg

Now, since stray heat transfer is neglected at turbine, we have;

-W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2 - h1)

Plugging in relevant values, the work of the turbine is;

W' = -2.784(3115.32 - 3179.46)

W' = 178.568 KW

B) Still From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific entropy: s1 = 7.3357 KJ/Kg.k

Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific entropy; s2 = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k

The amount of entropy produced is defined by;

ΔS = m'(s2 - s1)

ΔS = 2.784(8.2828 - 7.3357)

ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with s2 = s2s = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

h2s = 2966.14 KJ/Kg

Energy equation for turbine at ideal process is defined as;

Q' - W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Again, Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2s - h1)

W' = -2.784(2966.14 - 3179.46)

W' = 593.88 KW

the isentropic turbine efficiency is defined as;

η = W_actual/W_ideal

η = 178.568/593.88 = 0.3
