Answer:

Approximately 13\; \rm g of steam at 100\; \rm ^\circ C (assuming that the boiling point of water in this experiment is 100\; \rm ^\circ C\!.)

Explanation:

Latent heat of condensation/evaporation of water: 2260\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}.

Both mass values in this question are given in grams. Hence, convert the specific heat values from this question to \rm J \cdot g^{-1}.

Specific heat of water: 4.2\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot \rm K^{-1}.

Specific heat of copper: 0.39\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}.

The temperature of this calorimeter and the 250\; \rm g of water that it initially contains increased from 20\; \rm ^\circ C to 50\; \rm ^\circ C. Calculate the amount of energy that would be absorbed:

\begin{aligned}& Q(\text{copper}) \\ =\;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 0.39\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1} \times 50\; \rm g \times (50\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 20\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & 585\; \rm J  \end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned}& Q(\text{cool water}) \\ =\;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 4.2\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1} \times 250\; \rm g \times (50\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 20\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & 31500\; \rm J  \end{aligned}.

Hence, it would take an extra 585\; \rm J + 31500\; \rm J = 32085\; \rm J of energy to increase the temperature of the calorimeter and the 250\; \rm g of water that it initially contains from 20\; \rm ^\circ C to 50\; \rm ^\circ C.

Assume that it would take x grams of steam at 100\; \rm ^\circ C ensure that the equilibrium temperature of the system is 50\; \rm ^\circ C.

In other words, x\; \rm g of steam at 100\; \rm ^\circ C would need to release 32085\; \rm J as it condenses (releases latent heat) and cools down to 50\; \rm ^\circ C.

Latent heat of condensation from x\; \rm g of steam: 2260\; {\rm J \cdot g^{-1}} \times (x\; {\rm g}) = (2260\, x)\; \rm J.

Energy released when that x\; {\rm g} of water from the steam cools down from 100\; \rm ^\circ C to 50\; \rm ^\circ C:

\begin{aligned}Q = \;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 4.2\; {\rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}} \times (x\; \rm g) \times (100\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 50\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & (210\, x)\; \rm J  \end{aligned}.

These two parts of energy should add up to 32085\; \rm J. That would be exactly what it would take to raise the temperature of the calorimeter and the water that it initially contains from 20\; \rm ^\circ C to 50\; \rm ^\circ C.

(2260\, x)\; {\rm J} + (210\, x)\; {\rm J} = 32085\; \rm J.

Solve for x:

x \approx 13.

Hence, it would take approximately 13\; \rm g of steam at 100\; \rm ^\circ C for the equilibrium temperature of the system to be 50\; \rm ^\circ C.

Test:

Performing a Litmus Test

Result:

Litmus paper gives the user a general indication of acidity or alkalinity as it correlates to the shade of red or blue that the paper turns.

  • To test the pH of a substance, dip a strip of litmus paper into the solution or use a dropper or pipette to drip a small amount of solution onto the litmus paper.
  • Blue litmus paper can indicate an acid with a pH between 4 and 5 or lower.
  • Red litmus paper can show a base with a pH greater than 8.
  • If a solution has a pH between 5 and 8, it will show little color change on the litmus paper.
  • A base tested with blue litmus paper will not show any color change, nor will an acid tested with red litmus paper register a change in color.

Mimas, a moon of Saturn, has an orbital radius of 1.62 × 108 m and an orbital period of about 23.21 h. Use Newton’s version of K
Drupady [299]

Answer:

3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg

Explanation:

a = Orbital radius = 1.62\times 10^8\ m

T = Orbital period = 23.21 hours

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

From Kepler's third law we get

M=\frac{4\pi^2a^3}{GT^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{4\pi^2\times (1.62\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times (23.21\times 3600)^2}\\\Rightarrow M=3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg

From the given data the mass of Saturn is 3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg
