Answer:
Because X-rays have wavelengths similar to the size of atoms
Answer:
Q = 2640.96 J
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of He gas = 10.7 g
Initial temperature = 22.1°C
Final temperature = 39.4°C
Heat absorbed = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree. Specific heat capacity of He is 14.267 J/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 39.4°C - 22.1°C
ΔT = 17.3°C
Q = 10.7 g× 14.267 J/g.°C × 17.3°C
Q = 2640.96 J
The answer is 7.33 g.
<span>To calculate this, we will use the the ideal gas law:
PV = nRT
where
P - pressure of the gas,
V - volume of the gas,
n - amount of substance of gas,
R - gas constant,
T - temperature of the gas.</span>
Since the amount of substance of gas (n) can be expressed as mass (m) divided by molar mass (M), then:
PV = RTm/M
It is given:
P = 0.98 atm
V = 10.2 l
T = 26°C = 299.15 K
R = 0.082 l atm/Kmol (gas constant)
M (H2O) = 2Ar(H) + Ar(O) = 2*1 + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18g
m = ?
Since PV = RTm/M, then:
m = PVM/RT
m = 0.98 · 10.2 · 18 / 0.082 · 299.15 = 179.928/24.5303 = 7.33 g
