Answer: Edge length of the unit cell = 628pm

Explanation: For a body centred cubic structured system, the relationship between the edge length of the unit cell and radius of the atoms in the structure is

Edge length of Unit cell (a) = (4R)/(√3)

R = 272pm = (272 × (10^-12))m = (2.72 × (10^-10))m

a = (4 × (2.72 × (10^-10)))/(√3)

a = (6.28157 × (10^-10))m = 628pm

1. An electric power plant uses energy from burning coal to generate steam at 450 °C. The plant is cooled by 20 °C water

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Efficiency of the electric power plant is $e=1-\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

Here Temperature of hot source $T_{1} = 450^{o}C=450+273=723 K$

and Temperature of sink $T_{1} = 20^{o}C=20+273=293 K$

Hence the efficiency is $e=1-\frac{293}{723}=0.5947=59.47%$

Now another formula for thermal efficiency Is

$e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

Here QI is the of heat taken from source 100 MJ ; Q2 of heat transferred to the sink (river) to be found

W is the of work done and W = QI -Q2

Hence From $e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

$W=e(Q_{1})=(0.5947)(100)=59.47MJ$

Hence the of heat transferred to the river Is $Q_{2} -W = (100 -59.47=40.53$
