Answer : The standard enthalpy change for the combustion of CO(g) is, -283 kJ/mol
Explanation :
According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.
The combustion of 
will be,
The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,
(1) 
(2) 
Now we are reversing reaction 1 and then adding both the equations, we get :
(1) 
(2)
The expression for enthalpy change for the reaction will be,
Therefore, the standard enthalpy change for the combustion of CO(g) is, -283 kJ/mol

We will use Boyle's law that states that for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional.
P1 V1 = P2 V2
Where
P1 is initial pressure = 5 psi
V1 is initial volume = 20 cubic inch
P2 is final pressure = 10 psi
V2 is final volume = unknown
V2 = P1,V1 / P2
V2 = 20 × 5 / 10
V2 = 100/10
V2 = 10 cubic inches
Answer:
Scientists seek to eliminate all forms of bias from their research. However, all scientists also make assumptions of a non-empirical nature about topics such as causality, determinism and reductionism when conducting research. Here, we argue that since these 'philosophical biases' cannot be avoided, they need to be debated critically by scientists and philosophers of science.
Explanation:
Scientists are keen to avoid bias of any kind because they threaten scientific ideals such as objectivity, transparency and rationality. The scientific community has made substantial efforts to detect, explicate and critically examine different types of biases (Sackett, 1979; Ioannidis, 2005; Ioannidis, 2018; Macleod et al., 2015). One example of this is the catalogue of all the biases that affect medical evidence compiled by the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford University (catalogueofbias.org). Such awareness is commonly seen as a crucial step towards making science objective, transparent and free from bias.
In order to calculate the amount of heat energy required to melt 347 grams of ice, we need to will apply the equation:
Q
= ml, where m is the mass of substance and l is its latent heat of
fusion. For ice, the latent heat of fusion is 334 joules per gram.
Therefore:
Q = 347 x 334
Q = 112,558 joules of energy
Hope this helped.
