The steam releases 39.9 kJ when it condenses..
The steam condenses and transfers its energy to the skin.
<em>q = m</em>Δ<em>H</em>_cond = 17.7 g × (-2257 J/1 g) = -39 900 kJ = -39.9 kJ
The negative sign shows that the steam is releasing energy
Answer:
B. a strongly basic solution
Explanation:
Kb is base dissociation constant, which indicates how completely a base dissociates into its component ions in water. The greater the Kb value, the greater the alkalinity of the solution and vice versa.
Therefore, a solution with a Kb value much greater than 1, indicates a strongly basic solution, while a solution with a Kb value less than 1, indicates a weakly basic solution.
Answer:
Relative humidity is low .
Explanation:
The wet bulb reads low temperature because due to low humidity of atmosphere , evaporation of water takes place from the wet bulb which makes the bulb cool and therefore it reads lower temperature . In the process of evaporation , heat equal to latent heat of vaporization is taken from the bulb and it loses temperature.
The correct answer is D) Ar
