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.

What are the chemical properties of noble gases?
Arturiano [62]
These gases all have similar properties under standard conditions: they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases with very low chemical reactivity. The six noble gases that occur naturally are helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), and Radon (Rn).

Suppose you are working in a chemistry lab and trying to make a solution of a substance called Sodium Chloride (which is a solid
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a weighing balance, a measuring cylinder, a spatula, a beaker/flask, and a stirrer

Explanation:

The lab apparatus that would be needed to prepare a solution of sodium chloride would be <em>a weighing balance, a measuring cylinder, a spatula, a beaker/flask, and a stirrer.</em>

The weighing balance would be used to weigh out the required amount of sodium chloride. The beaker or flask would be placed on the weighing balance and its weight zeroed. The spatula would then be sued to take out the sodium chloride from its container into the beaker till the required amount is reached. The measuring cylinder would then be used to measure out the required volume of water which would be added to the salt in the beaker. The stirrer would then be used to stir the mixture in order for the salt to dissolve.

The Earth's moon is unusually large. Two popular theories of the moon's origin include the "sister world" hypothesis, which stat
Verizon [17]

Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.

However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.
