Answer:

a) 128 grams

b) 81.25%

Explanation:

a) The mixture will be between the alloy and the pure copper, so the mass will be the sum of the mass of the compounds:

m = 50 + 78 = 128 g

b) In the alloy, 52% is copper, so to know the mass of copper in the alloy, we must multiply the total mass by 52% (which is 0.52)

0.52x50 = 26 g of copper

The total mass of copper in the mixture is 26 + 78 = 104 g

So, the percentual of copper is the mass of copper divided by the total mass

104/128 = 0.8125

Multiplying by 100%, to have the result in percentage

0.8125x100% = 81.25%

An airplane model is an example of what type of model
Ksju [112]
TL;DR: The make of an aircraft is the name of the designer (for example, Boeing) and the model of an aircraft (also called the type) is the designation for the general design of the aircraft (for example, 737). It looks like "basic model" is just an older term for "model".

Write an equation that expresses the law of thermodynamics in terms of heat and work
Anettt [7]

We write DE = q+w, where DE is the internal energy change and q and w are heat and work, respectively.

(b)Under what conditions will the quantities q and w be negative numbers?

q is negative when heat flows from the system to the surroundings, and w is negative when the system does work on the surroundings.

As an aside: In applying the first law, do we need to measure the internal energy of a system? Explain.

The absolute internal energy of a system cannot be measured, at least in any practical sense. The internal energy encompasses the kinetic energy of all moving particles in the system, including subatomic particles, as well as the electrostatic potential energies between all these particles. We can measure the change in internal energy (DE) as the result of a chemical or physical change, but we cannot determine the absolute internal energy of either the initial or the final state. The first law allows us to calculate the change in internal energy during a transformation by calculating the heat and work exchanged between the system and its surroundings.

A sample of C3H8 has 3.28 × 1024 H atoms. How many carbon atoms does the sample contain? What is the total mass of the sample in
sammy [17]
To find the number of carbon atoms, we <span>multiply </span>the 3.28x10^24 by the ratio, 3/8. The total number of carbon atoms is 1.23 x 10^24 atoms. The total mass of the sample is each number of atoms divided by avogadro's number and multiplied by the molar mass of each. The total mass is 29.96 grams.

A student reduces the temperature of a 300 cm3 balloon from 60°c to 30°
FromTheMoon [43]

We can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

V2 = T2 x V1 / T1

V2 = 303.15  x 300 / 333.15

<span>V2 = 272.99 cm³</span>
