List four methods that can be used to separate mixtures and give an example of each method?

1 answer:

3 0

(1) Filtration - example is separating saltwater from sand particles.
(2) Distillation - example is apple cider vinegar. Distillation collects the liquid that we want, which is the vinegar and leave out other heavier suspended particles.
(3) Centrifuges - example is separating the blood components. They separate the plasma and erythrocytes.
(4) Magnetism - example is separating metals from non-metals in electromagnetic cranes, that differentiate between metal and heap of junks.

Illusion [34]

We shall convert all of the densities to lbs/gal, so the product of
BTU/lbs and lbs/gal gives us the basis of comparison, which was "ratio of energy to volume".
grams / ml x 1 lbs/454 grams → 1 lbs/ 454 ml
1 lbs/454 ml x 3785.41 ml/gal → 3785.41 lbs/454gal
Conversion of g/ml = 8.34 lbs/gal
Looking at each fuel:

Kerosene:
18,500 x (8.34 x 0.82) = 126,517 BTU/gal

Gasoline:
20,900 x (8.34 x 0.737) = 128,463 BTU/gal

Ethanol:
11,500 x (8.34 x 0.789) = 75,673 BTU/gal

Hydrogen:
61,000 x (8.34 x 0.071) = 36,120 BTU/gal

The best fuel in terms of energy to volume ratio is Gasoline.
Gallons required:
BTU needed / BTU per gallon
= 85.2 x 10⁹ / 128,463
= 6.6 x 10⁵ gallons

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{force}{mass}$ </h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{500}{50} \\ = \frac{50}{5}$ </h3>

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A process with a negative change in enthalpy and a negative change in entropy will generally be:________

valentina_108 [34]

A process with a negative change in enthalpy and a negative change in entropy will generally be: <u>spontaneous</u>.

<h3>Gibbs free energy:</h3>

Since the Gibbs free energy is a parameter that tells us whether a chemical reaction is spontaneous (Gibbs free energy less than 0) or nonspontaneous (Gibbs free energy greater than 0) in this situation, we can describe it mathematically as:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Therefore, any process with a negative change in enthalpy and a positive change in entropy will be spontaneous. If the enthalpy and the entropy are both negative, the subtraction becomes always negative, for which the Gibbs free energy is also negative.

One of the most crucial thermodynamic functions for the characterization of a system is the Gibbs free energy. It influences results like the voltage of an electrochemical cell and the equilibrium constant for a reversible reaction, among others.
