Indigenous people sometimes cook in watertight baskets by placing hot rocks into water to bring it to a boil. What mass of 500ºC

rock must be placed in 4.00 kg of 15.0ºC water to bring its temperature to 100ºC, if 0.0250 kg of water escapes as vapor from the initial sizzle? You may neglect the effects of the surroundings and take the average specific heat of the rocks to be that of granite. (answer in kg)

Answer:

m = 4.65 kg

Explanation:

As we know that the mass of the water that evaporated out is given as

m = 0.0250 kg

so the energy released in form of vapor is given as

Q = mL

Q = (0.0250)(2.25 \times 10^6)

Q = 56511 J

now the heat required by remaining water to bring it from 15 degree to 100 degree

Q_2 = ms\Delta T

Q_2 = (4 - 0.025)(4186)(100 - 15)

Q_2 = 1.41\times 10^6J

total heat required for above conversion

Q = 56511 + 1.41 \times 10^6 = 1.47 \times 10^6 J

now by heat energy balance

heat given by granite = heat absorbed by water

m(790)(500 - 100) = 1.47 \times 10^6

m = 4.65 kg

What is the target heart rate a female age 32
Airida [17]

Answer:

The normal resting heart rate for adults over the age of 10 years, including older adults, is between 60 and 100 beats per minute (bpm). Highly trained athletes may have a resting heart rate below 60 bpm, sometimes reaching 40 bpm. The resting heart rate can vary within this normal range.

Explanation:

How many atoms are there in 3.4moles if helium ,show the calculation
prohojiy [21]
Answer: 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms
To count how many atoms in moles you need to know Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number dictate that for every mole there is 6.022140857 × 10^23 molecule/atoms.
Then 3.4 moles of helium will be 3.4x 6.022140857 x  10^23 atoms= 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms
