A 55.4 g sample of water at 99.61 °C is placed in a constant pressure calorimeter. Then, 23.4 g of zinc metal at 21.6 °C is adde
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the zinc metal measured in this experiment is 0.427 J/g.°C

Explanation:

From the experimental data, the water loses heat because its initial temperature is greater than the final temperature of the mixture. On the other hand, the zinc metal gains heat because its initial temperature is less than the final temperature of the mixture

Heat loss by water = Heat gain by zinc metal

m1C1(T1 - T3) = m2C2(T3 - T2)

m1 is mass of water = 55.4 g

C1 is specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g.°C

m2 is mass of zinc metal = 23.4 g

C2 is specific heat capacity of zinc metal

T1 is the initial temperature of water = 99.61 °C

T2 is the initial temperature of zinc metal = 21.6 °C

T3 is the final temperature of the mixture = 96.4 °C

55.4×4.2(99.61 - 96.4) = 23.4×C2(96.4 - 21.6)

746.9028 = 1750.32C2

C2 = 746.9028/1750.32 = 0.427 J/g.°C

On a hot day, the temperature of a 65,000-L swimming pool increases by 1.20°C. What is the net heat transfer during this heating
vichka [17]

Answer:

326149.2 KJ

Explanation:

The heat transfer toward and object that suffered an increase in temperature can be calculated using the expression:

Q = m*cv*ΔT

Where m is the mass of the object, cv is the specific heat capacity at constant volume, which basically means the amount of heat necessary for a 1kg of water to increase 1C degree in temperatur, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

A 65000 L swimming pool will have a mass of:

65000L *\frac{1m^3}{1000L} * \frac{1000kg}{1m^3} = 65000 kg

The specific heat capacity at constant volume of water is equal to 4.1814 KJ/KgC.

We replace the data and get:

Q = m*cv*ΔT = 65000 kg * 4.1814 KJ/KgC * 1.2°C = 326149.2 KJ

Why must humans limit their exposure to X-rays and gamma rays?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets limits for exposure to x-rays and gamma rays in part because it recognizes that this form of radiation can cause cancer.

Three Carnot engines operate between the following temperature limits.
Kipish [7]

Answer:c>a>b

Explanation:

Given

All the engine extracts same amount of heat(Q) from High-temperature reservoir

For a) 400 and 500 K

\eta _{engine}=1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta _{engine}=\frac{work\ supplied}{heat\ supplied}

1-\frac{400}{500}=\frac{W_a}{Q}

W_a=\frac{Q}{5}

For b)500 K and 600K

1-\frac{500}{600}=\frac{W_b}{Q}

W-b=\frac{Q}{6}

For c) 400 K and 600 K

1-\frac{400}{600}=\frac{W_c}{Q}

W_c=\frac{2Q}{3}

So c will give the highest amount of work

c>a>b
