Exploring the Second Law

Chemistry
1 answer:
san4es73 [151]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(a) The coefficient of performance of an irreversible refrigeration cycle is always less than the coefficient of performance of a reversible refrigeration cycle when both exchange energy by heat transfer with the same two reservoirs.

Explanation:

According to the  Kelvin–Planck statement of the second law of thermodynamics ,it is not possible to construct a device which operates in cycle and does not produce effect on the environment than the production of work.

We know that

Coefficient of performance is the ratio of desired effect to the work input in a cycle.

Given all option is correct but most appropriate option is a.

So the option a is correct

(a) The coefficient of performance of an irreversible refrigeration cycle is always less than the coefficient of performance of a reversible refrigeration cycle when both exchange energy by heat transfer with the same two reservoirs.

ehidna [41]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here are the options:

Which of the following is LESS dense than water?

The spoon

The glass

The tablets

The bubbles

The correct answer to this question is The bubbles

Explanation:

In general, the density of materials and substances affects their buoyancy. This implies in water less dense materials will float and those with higher density will sink. In the situation presented, the only element that is less dense than water are bubbles; this is shown by the movement of the bubbles as these originate in the bottom of the glass of water but they rise to the surface, which shows they are less dense than water.

The formation of iodine is described by the following chemical equation:
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

N2O2(g) +O2(g) ===> 2NO2(g)

Explanation:

For a nonelementary reaction, the reaction equation is described as the sum of all the steps involved. All these steps constitute the reaction mechanism. Each step in the mechanism is an elementary reaction. The rate law of the overall reaction involves the rate determining step (slowest step) in the reaction sequence.

Now look at the overall reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

The two steps in the mechanism are

2NO(g) --------->N2O2(g) (fast)

N2O2(g) +O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g) (slow)

Summing all the steps and cancelling out the intermediate N2O2(g), we obtain the reaction equation;

2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

Hence the answer.

TRIPLE POINTS!!! I NEED HELP!!! PLEASE EXPLAIN TOO!!! What is the energy of a quantum of light with a frequency of 4.31 x 1014 1
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The answer is

2.86 \times  {10}^{ - 19}  \: J

Explanation:

The energy of a quantum of light can be found by using the formula

<h3>E = hf</h3>

where

E is the energy

f is the frequency

h is the Planck's constant which is

6.626 × 10-³⁴ Js

From the question

f = 4.31 × 10¹⁴ Hz

We have

E = 4.31 × 10¹⁴ × 6.626 × 10-³⁴

We have the final answer as

2.86 \times  {10}^{ - 19}  \: J

Hope this helps you
