17. ΔH rxn is the enthalpy of a reaction. It is the amount of energy or heat absorbed in a reaction. If enthalpy is positive, it means the reaction absorbs heat, which means it is endothermic. If the enthalpy is negative, it means the reaction release heat, which means it is exothermic.
18. yes, it is possible in theory but it is not necessary. Water is the ideal, cheaper, and most abundant liquid for a calorimeter.
19. Specific heat= heat/mass*Temp. the mass is already known You can place the piece of metal in a calorimeter filled with water. the piece of metal and water must be at different temperatures. Ideally, you would heat up the water and let it cool down. This change in temperature in the temperature that goes into the formula for the piece of metal. The only missing value is the heat which can be easily calculated because water' specific heat is known which can be used to calculate the heat loss by the water, which is the same as the heat gain by the piece of metal. With all the three values calculated and measured, you can simply plug them into the formula and solve for the specific heat of the metal.
Variations in the solar resource are probably the first and main consideration. You can use local weather stations where available, otherwise satellite data (eg from NASA's website) or commercial databases such as Meteonorm. Also there is quite a comprehensive set of data files in the SAM software
Other important considerations are
local environment: plants and animals that could be affected by the system; community support and buy-in.wind, hail, rain, snow profile for the location in question. if there are high/tropical winds then it will increase the plant cost.flight paths and roads near the plant which could be affected by glint and glareproximity to a local town where staff will be able to live both during construction and later during operationproximity to a electricity transmission line with available capacityavailability of water for mirror cleaning and steam blowdown.cost (and availability) of electricity in the area. If remote, electricity/energy may be very expensive, which will enable a high price for electricity sold from the plant.quality of road to the plant, required to bring equipment and materials to sitepolitical stability of the region -- potential impact on perceived bankability of the project.
Many of these items will have a large influence on the cost of the plant and/or the revenue it will generate during its life. Others relate to environmental and risk factors and are also critically important to consider.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
Calcium would displace barium.
Explanation:
Ba(NO₃)₂ + Ca --> Ca(NO₃)₂ + Ba
There are two types of compounds: molecular/covalent and ionic.
Molecular/covalent compounds are non-metal + non-metal.
Ionic compounds are metal + non-metal.
Looking at the periodic table, barium is a metal. Calcium is also a metal.
Checking a polyatomic ions chart would tell you NO₃⁻ is a non-metal because it has a negative charge.
Since there is no metal + metal compound, the calcium metal would displace barium. The compound remains ionic.
