How does lithium react with cold water?

2 answers:

5 0

Lithium metals reacts slowly with water to form a colourless solution of lithiums hydroxide (LiOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic, but the reaction is slower than that of sodium (immediately below lithium in the periodic table)

Lithium reacts intensely with water, forming lithium hydroxide and highly combustible hydrogen.

Which energy transformation occurs when you light a gas burner?

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Chemical energy to thermal(heat) energy

Explanation:

A gas burner contains chemical hydrocarbon such as methane, this methane is highly flammable.

The gas burner which contains methane when lighted up converts the chemical energy in the chemical to heat energy through the fire it produces. The fire then helps in heating up the surface it is applied to.

Find p1, the gauge pressure at the bottom of tube 1. (Gauge pressure is the pressure in excess of outside atmospheric pressure.)

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

(a). The gauge pressure at the bottom of tube 1 is $P_{1}=\rho g h_{1}$

(b). The speed of the fluid in the left end of the main pipe $\sqrt{\dfrac{2g(h_{2}-h_{1})}{(1-(\gamma)^2)}}$

Explanation:

Given that,

Gauge pressure at bottom = p₁

Suppose, an arrangement with a horizontal pipe carrying fluid of density p . The fluid rises to heights h1 and h2 in the two open-ended tubes (see figure). The cross-sectional area of the pipe is A1 at the position of tube 1, and A2 at the position of tube 2.

Find the speed of the fluid in the left end of the main pipe.

(a). We need to calculate the gauge pressure at the bottom of tube 1

Using bernoulli equation

$P_{1}=\rho g h_{1}$

(b). We need to calculate the speed of the fluid in the left end of the main pipe

Using bernoulli equation

Pressure for first pipe,

$P_{1}=\rho gh_{1}$ .....(I)

Pressure for second pipe,

$P_{2}=\rho gh_{2}$ .....(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

$P_{2}-P_{1}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho(v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2)$

Put the value of P₁ and P₂

$\rho g h_{2}-\rho g h_{1}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho(v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2)$

$gh_{2}-gh_{1}=\dfrac{1}{2}(v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2)$

$2g(h_{2}-h_{1})=v_{1}^2-v_{2}^2$ ....(III)

We know that,

The continuity equation

$v_{1}A_{1}=v_{2}A_{2}$

$v_{2}=v_{1}(\dfrac{A_{1}}{A_{2}})$

Put the value of v₂ in equation (III)

$2g(h_{2}-h_{1})=v_{1}^2-(v_{1}(\dfrac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}))^2$

$2g(h_{2}-h_{1})=v_{1}^2(1-(\dfrac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}))^2$

Here, $\dfrac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}=\gamma$

So, $2g(h_{2}-h_{1})=v_{1}^2(1-(\gamma)^2)$

$v_{1}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2g(h_{2}-h_{1})}{(1-(\gamma)^2)}}$

Hence, (a). The gauge pressure at the bottom of tube 1 is $P_{1}=\rho g h_{1}$

(b). The speed of the fluid in the left end of the main pipe $\sqrt{\dfrac{2g(h_{2}-h_{1})}{(1-(\gamma)^2)}}$

What happens to the temperature during an endothermic reaction? ANSWERS; The temperature stays constant. The temperature will de

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The temperature will decrease (get colder).

Explanation:

Enthalpy changes are heat changes accompanying physical and chemical changes. The enthalpy change is the difference between the sum of the heat contents of products and the sum of heat contents of reactants.

For an endothermic change, heat is absorbed for the reaction.
The surrounding becomes colder at the end of the reaction and so is the reaction itself.
The right choice is that the temperature will decrease.
