Which of the following describes work?

Chemistry

Kobotan [32]3 years ago

Answer:

  • <em><u>lifting a 1 kg mass 1 m.</u></em>

Explanation:

<em>Work </em>is the result of applying a force that manages to move a mass.

Thus, the work (mechanical work in this case because this is a mechanical force, not an electrical one) applied by a constant force is the product of the force times the distance that the object is moved.

Also, you can calculate the mechanical work as the difference in the mechanical energy between the initial and the final stages of the event where the force was applied.

Let's see each choice:

a) <em><u>Holding a mass for 1 hr</u></em>: since no translation is involved, displacement is and the work is zero.

b) <em><u>Holding 1 kg mass</u></em>: again, no motion is involved, so there is no work.

c) <em><u>Moving 1 m in 1 hr</u></em>: there is not force involved in this statement, so there is not work.

d) <em><u>lifting a 1 kg mass 1 m:</u></em> this, indeed, describes a situation where work results from applying a lifting force to move a mass 1 m up.

In this case, such work is equal to the change in the potential energy of the mass: mgΔh = 1kg × 9.8m/s² × 1 m = 9.8 joules.

Molecules can be dissolved? Why?
elixir [45]

Answer:

Dissolving is when the solute breaks up from a larger crystal of molecules into much smaller groups or individual molecules. This break up is caused by coming into contact with the solvent. In the case of salt water, the water molecules break off salt molecules from the larger crystal lattice.

a) One kmol of N2O4 dissociates at 25℃, 1 atm to form an equilibrium ideal gas mixture of N2O4 and NO2 in which the amount of N2
horsena [70]

Answer:

neq N2O4 = 0.9795 mol.....P = 0.5 atm; T = 25°C

Explanation:

             ni      change    eq.

N2O4    1          1 - x       0.8154.....P = 1 atm; T = 25°C

NO2      0        0 + x          x

∴ x = neq = Peq.V / R.T.....ideal gas mix

if P = 0.5 atm, T = 25°C; assuming: V = 1 L

⇒ x = neq = ((0.5 atm)(1 L))/((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)(298 K))

⇒ x = neq = 0.0205 mol

⇒ neq N2O4 = 1 - x = 1 - 0.0205 = 0.9795 mol
