Answer:
Light energy can be converted into heat energy. A black object absorbs all wavelengths of light and converts them into heat, so the object gets warm. A white object reflects all wavelengths of light, so the light is not converted into heat and the temperature of the object does not increase noticeably.
Answer:
All of the above processes have a ΔS < 0.
Explanation:
ΔS represents change in entropy of a system. Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system.
The question requests us to identify the process that has a negative change of entropy.
carbon dioxide(g) → carbon dioxide(s)
There is a change in state from gas to solid. Solid particles are more ordered than gas particles so this is a negative change in entropy.
water freezes
There is a change in state from liquid to solid. Solid particles are more ordered than liquid particles so this is a negative change in entropy.
propanol (g, at 555 K) → propanol (g, at 400 K)
Temperature is directly proportional to entropy, this means higher temperature leads t higher entropy.
This reaction highlights a drop in temperature which means a negative change in entropy.
methyl alcohol condenses
Condensation is the change in state from gas to liquid. Liquid particles are more ordered than gas particles so this is a negative change in entropy.
Answer:
That is a compound. If it was an element it would either just be Na or Cl.
The reaction, as what is depicted in the thermonuclear equation is one of the best example of an endothermic reaction. In addition, the endothermic process revolves around the idea that the system can also absorb the energy from its surroundings, in contrast to the idea of releasing its energy to its environment.
Answer:
n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons
Explanation:
The energy of a photon( an elementary particle) is given by the equation:
E = nxhxf
Where n is the number of photons, h is plank constant (6,62x10⁻³⁴ J.s), and f is the frequency. Knowing that the power level is 0.120mW (1.2x10⁻⁴ W), the energy in J, for a time of 78 min (4680 s)
E = 1.2x10⁻⁴x4680 = 0.5616 J
The frequency of a photon is its velocity ( c= 3x10⁸ m/s) divided by its wavelength, which is 780 nm = 780x10⁻⁹ m
f = 3x10⁸/780x10⁻⁹
f = 3.846x10¹⁴ s⁻¹
Then, the number of photons is:
0.5616 = nx6,62x10⁻³⁴x3.846x10¹⁴
n = 2.208x10¹⁸ photons.
