Which of the following units would need to be converted before being used for a calculation?

Physics
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

To do this, one uses a conversion factor. In mathematics, specifically algebra, a conversion factor is used to convert a measured quantity to a different unit of measure without changing the relative amount. To accomplish this, a ratio ( fraction ) is established that equals one (1).

What is the quantity of heat energy required to convert 10g cube of ice at -30oC to steam at 120oC. also draw a graph of tempera
julia-pushkina [17]

30,869.2 J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ice cube = 10g

Initial temperature = -30°C

Final temperature = 120°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of steam  = 1.996J/g°C

Latent heat of fusion of water(l) = 334J/g

Latent heat of vaporization = 2230J/g

Unknown:

Quantity of heat required = ?

Temperature-energy graph = ?

Solution:

The temperature energy profile is attached to this solution.

q = mc∅ₓ + mlₓ + mc∅ₙ + mlₙ + mc∅ₐ

qₓ = mc∅ₓ in converting ice from -30°C to ice at 0°C

qₓ is the amount of heat supplied to the ice that changes its temperature from -30°C to that at freezing point:

qₓ  = 10 x 4.2 x (0-(-30)) = 10 x 2.1 x 30 = 630J

qₓ = mlₓ in converting ice to water

qₓ here is the latent heat used to break the ice bonds without a change in temperature:

qₓ = ml = 10 x 334 = 3340J

qₙ = mc∅ₙ is the heat from water at 0°C to boiling point.

This is the heat required to take water from freezing temperature to its boiling point

qₙ = mc∅ₙ  = 10 x 4.2 x (100 - 0) = 4200J

qₙ  = mlₙ is the heat in vaporizing water

In vaporizing water, there is no temperature change when the hydrogen bonds are broken. The heat supplied is not used to raise temperature. We use the latent heat of vaporization:

qₙ   = 10 x 2230 = 22300J

qₐ = mc∅ₐ from vapor at 100°C to 120°C

This is the heat used to raise the temperature of vapor:

qₐ = 10 x 1.996 x (120-100) = 399.2J

The total heat:

  q = qₓ + qₙ + qₐ = 630J + 3340J + 4200J + 22300J + 399.2J =30,869.2 J

What is the difference between scientific law and scientific theory
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

In general, a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory.
