A red-hot piece of iron is set on a metal workbench. A student says that it transfers heat to the bench and the air by conductio

n, and that no other heat transfer takes place. What is wrong with the student's reasoning?
Metal cannot transfer heat by conduction.

The iron convects heat to the workbench.

Conduction does not work between a solid and a gas.

The metal also gives off heat in the form of radiation.

Answer: The metal also gives off heat in the form of radiation.

Explanation:

The heat transfer takes place by three methods:

1. Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two solid objects.

2. Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas) in which convection currents are produced due to the movement of hot fluid upwards and cold fluid downwards. This happens as the density of hot fluid decreases and thus it moves upwards.

3. Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.

<span>The metal also gives off heat in the form of radiation. 

Just took the test and got it right, using a process of elimination based on what you know helps. Hope this helps!</span>

A student carried out this reaction with methane as the limiting reagent. A 12.0 g quantity of methane was used, and the student
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The percent yield is 66.7%

Explanation:

1. The balanced chemical reaction to obtain carbon dioxide from the methane is:

CH_{4}+2O_{2}=CO_{2}+2H_{2}O

2. Calculathe the theoretical quantity of carbon dioxide.

As the problem says that the limiting reagent is the methane, all the calculations will be made from this quantity:

12.0gCH_{4}*\frac{1molCH_{4}}{16gCH_{4}}*\frac{1molCO_{2}}{1molCH_{4}}*\frac{44gCO_{2}}{1molCO_{2}}=33gCO_{2}

3. Calculate the percent yield:

Percent yield = \frac{actualyield}{theoreticalyield}*100

Percent yield = \frac{22.0g}{33.0g}*100

Percent yield = 66.7%

How many molecules of water will be produced if 52.6 g of methane are burned?
dem82 [27]
When the balanced reaction equation of methane combustion is:

CH4 + 2O2 →CO2 + 2H2O

so, we can see that each 1 mole of methane combusted will give 2 moles of water as a product.

so first, we need to get the moles of methane =
                                         
                         = mass of methane /molar mass of methane 

                         = 52.6 g / 16.04 g/mol

                         = 3.28 moles

when 1 mol of methane produces→ 2 moles of water 

∴ 3.28 moles methane produces →   X moles of water 

∴ moles of water = 3.28 * 2 

                             = 6.56 moles

when each 1 mole of water has 6.02 x 10^23 (Avogadro's number ) individual molecules:

∴number of molecules of water = 6.56 * 6.02 x 10^23

                                                      = 3.9 x 10^24 molecules

How do weathering and deposition differ?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well .

Explanation:

in the same place, with little or no movement, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.
