A piston system absorbs 50.5 J of energy in the form of heat from the surroundings. The piston is working against a pressure of

0.491 atm. The final volume of the system is 56.2 L. What was the initial volume of the system if the internal energy of the system decreased by 106.0 J? (To convert between L∙atm and J, use 1 L∙atm = 101.3 J.)

Answer:

The initial volume of the system: <u>V₁ = 53.06 L</u>

Explanation:

Given: heat absorbed by system: q =  50.5 J, Pressure: P = 0.491 atm, Final volume: V₂ = 56.2 L, The change in the internal energy: ΔE = -106.0 J

Initial volume: V₁ = ? L

<u>According to the First Law of Thermodynamics</u>:

ΔE = q - PΔV

⇒ PΔV = q - ΔE = 50.5 J - (-106.0 J) = 156.5 J

As, 1 L∙atm = 101.3 J  ⇒   1 J = (1 ÷ 101.3) L∙atm

⇒ PΔV = 156.5 J = (156.5 ÷ 101.3) L∙atm = 1.54 L∙atm

So,

ΔV = 1.54 L∙atm ÷ P = 1.54 L∙atm ÷ 0.491 atm = 3.14 L

∵ ΔV = V₂ - V₁ = 3.14 L

⇒ V₁ = V₂ -  3.14 L = 56.2 L -  3.14 L = <u>53.06 L</u>

<u>Therefore, the initial volume of the system: V₁ = 53.06 L</u>

Write BE if the statement is Beneficial Effect to the sun’s heat and light, HE if it is Harmful Effect of the sun’s heat and lig
mrs_skeptik [129]

Based on exposure time and place, the Sun's radiation may have harmful or beneficial effects.

<h3>What is solar radiation?</h3>

Solar radiation refers to the radiation from the Sun in the form heat, light and other forms of radiation.

The radiation from the Sun may have harmful or beneficial effects.

The effects of the Sun's radiation can be classified as BE, HE or SP as follows:

  • BE- UV rays can help treat some health conditions. It creates Vitamin D
  • SP- Use sunblock lotion with SPF 15 during hot days.
  • BE- With the presence of sunlight, farmers can dry their crops.
  • HE- UV rays can damage the tissue in your eyes.
  • BE- Research says that sunlight helps moods.
  • HE- Too much exposure from the sun can cause skin cancer.
  • SP- Use sunglasses when you stay under the sun.
  • SP- Wear a wide- brimmed hat on sunny days.
  • BE- Humans can do recreational activities on a sunny day.
  • SP- Wear sunglasses that filter UV light.
  • HE- Prolonged exposure to the sun’s heat makes your skin age faster than normal.
  • HE- Too much heat from the sun can cause heat stroke and loss of water.
  • BE- Sunlight helps strengthen your immune system.
  • BE- The vitamin D made thanks to the sun plays a big role in bone health.
  • SP- Avoid sun in the middle of the day, from about 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

How many grams of solid iron will be produced from 32.1 grams of iron (III) oxide? Hint: Balance the equation first
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

22.45g of Fe will be produced

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)

<em>Where 1 mole of Iron (III) oxide reacts with 2 moles of Iron</em>

<em />

To solve this question we have to find the moles of iron (III) oxide. With these moles and the balanced reaction we can find the moles of iron produced and its mass:

<em>Moles iron (III) oxide -Molar mass: 159.69g/mol-</em>

32.1g Fe₂O₃ * (1mol / 159.69g) = 0.201 moles Fe₂O₃

<em>Moles Iron:</em>

0.201 moles Fe₂O₃ * (2mol Fe / 1mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.402 moles of Fe

<em>Mass Fe -Molar mass: 55.845g/mol-</em>

0.402 moles of Fe * (55.845g/mol) =

<h3>22.45g of Fe will be produced</h3>
