Answer:

α-iron (BCC) has faster diffusion rate because of lower values in activation energy and pre-exponential value.

Explanation:

Taking each parameters or data at a time, we can determine the values/a constant for each parameters in the diffusion coefficient equation.

For α-iron (BCC), the diffusion coefficient = pre-exponential value,Ao × e^( -Activation energy,AE)/gas constant,R × Temperature.

Converting the given Temperature, that is 900°C to Kelvin which is equals to 1173.15K.

For α-iron (BCC), the pre-exponential value, Ao = 1.1 × 10^-6, and the activation energy, AE = 87400.

Thus, we have that the diffusion coefficient = 1.1 × 10^-6 × e(-87400)/1173.15 × 8.31.

Diffusion coefficient for α-iron (BCC) = 1.41 × 10^-10 m^2/s.

Also, For the γ-iron (FCC), the pre-exponential value, Ao = 2.3 × 10^-5 and the activation energy, AE = 148,00.

From these values we can see that both the exponential value, Ao and the activation energy for γ-iron (FCC) are higher than that of α-iron (BCC).

Thus, the diffusion coefficient for the γ-iron (FCC) = 2.3 × 10^-5 × e ^-(14800)/8.31 × 1173.15.

Then, the diffusion coefficient for the γ-iron (FCC) = 5.87 × 10^-12 m2/s.

Therefore, there will be faster diffusion in α-iron (BCC) because of lower activation energy and vice versa.

Part A. Two containers, one at 305 K and the other at 295 K, are placed in contact with each other. 1. 1 J of heat flows from th
posledela

Answer:

0.00011 JK.

The process does NOT violate the second law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

The following parameters are given which are going to help in solving for the change in entropy of the system. The term "entropy'' simply means the degree of disorderliness of a system.

=> The temperature of container A = 305 K, the temperature of container B = 295 K and the amount of heat generated when the containers are placed in contact with each other = 1. 1 J.

The change in entropy of the hot container = -(1/305) = - 0.00328 J/K.

The change in entropy of the cold container = 1/295 = 0.00339 J/K.

Therefore, the change in the entropy of the system = - 0.00328 J/K + 0.00339 J/K = 0.00011 JK.

Note that the change in entropy of the system gives a positive value. Hence, this process does not violate the second law of thermodynamics.

The process does NOT violate the second law of thermodynamics.

The solubility of KClO3(s) in water increases as the
algol [13]
<span>Answer: option (1) solubility of the solution increases.
</span><span />

<span>Justification:
</span><span />

<span>The solubility of substances in a given solvent is temperature dependent.
</span><span />

<span>The most common behavior of the solubility of salts in water is that the solubiilty increases as the temperature increase.
</span><span />

<span>To predict with certainty the solubility at different temperatures you need the product solubility constants (Kps), which is a constant of equlibrium of the dissolution of a ionic compound slightly soluble in water, or a chart (usually experimental chart) showing the solubilities at different temperatures.
</span><span />

<span>KClO₃ is a highly soluble in water, so you do not work with Kps.
</span><span />

<span>You need the solubility chart or just assume that it has the normal behavior of the most common salts. You might know from ordinary experience that you can dissolve more sodium chloride (table salt) in water when the water is hot. That is the same with KClO₃.


</span><span>The solubility chart of KlO₃ is almost a straight line (slightly curved upward), with positive slope (ascending from left to right) meaning that the higher the temperature the more the amount of salt that can be dissolved.</span>

Write the two balanced equations, one for the incomplete combustion of methane (to form carbon monoxide and water vapor), and an
kompoz [17]

Answer:

2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\

Explanation:

2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\

The incomplete combustion of alkanes, and other fuels actually, happens when there is a limited supply of oxygen. Instead of the fuel burning completely to produce carbon dioxide, it produces carbon monoxide instead.

This gas is harmful to jumans because it combines with haemoglobin in lood and takes up space that belongs to oxygen which can lead to suffocation or even death
