Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Since the mass number is the number of protons and neutrons added together, the answer is 35. Since the questions are respectively electron quantity and mass number, the only answer choice with 35 as the second choice is C, so that is the correct answer.

The The thermal conductivity of a sheet of rigid, extruded insulation is reported to be k=0.029 W/ m measured temperature differ
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Heat flux = 13.92 W/m2

Rate of heat transfer throug the 3m x 3m sheet = 125.28 W

The thermal resistance of the 3x3m sheet is 0.0958 K/W

Explanation:

The rate of heat transfer through a 3m x 3m sheet of insulation can be calculated as:

q=-k*A*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}\\\\q=-0.029\frac{W}{m*K}*(3m*3m)*\frac{12K}{0.025m}  =125.28W

The heat flux can be defined as the amount of heat flow by unit of area.

Using the previous calculation, we can estimate the heat flux:

heat \, flux=\frac{q}{A}=\frac{125.28 W}{9 m^{2} }  =13.92 W/m^{2}

It can also be calculated as:

q/A=-k*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}

The thermal resistance can be expressed as

\Delta T=R_t*Q\\R_t=\Delta T/Q=\frac{\Delta X}{k*A}

For the 3m x 3m sheet, the thermal resistance is

R_t = \frac{\Delta X}{k*A}=\frac{0.025m}{0.029W/mK*9m^{2}}=0.0958 \, K/W

How does temperature change during a chemical reaction
snow_tiger [21]

A change in temperature is a sign that a chemical reaction has occurred. This occurs in an endothermic reaction. An endothermic process is any process which requires or absorbs energy from its surroundings, usually in the form of heat. It may be a chemical process, such as dissolving ammonium nitrate in water, or simply the melting of ice cubes.

Hopefully im not too late :/

Which of the highlighted carbon-oxygen bonds absorbs at a higher wavenumber in an IR spectrum?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

1. bond in the molecule on the right

Explanation:

CH3CH2-OH

The compound above is an alcohol due to the presence of the OH bond. The wave number of the C - O bond is given as; 1050-1150 cm^-1.

CH3CH__O

The compound above is an aldehyde due to the presence of the CHO bond. The wave number of the C = O  bond is given as; 1740-1720 cm^-1

Comparing both bonds, the C = O bond absorbs at a higher wave number.
