Answer:

Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.

One kilogram of water at 100 0C is cooled reversibly to 15 0C. Compute the change in entropy. Specific heat of water is 4190 J/K

mina [271]

Answer:

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

Explanation:

If the water is cooled reversibly with no phase changes, then there is no entropy generation during the entire process. By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, we represent the change of entropy ( $s_{2} - s_{1}$ ), in joules per gram-Kelvin, by the following model:

$s_{2} - s_{1} = \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dQ}{T} }$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dT}{T} }$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \ln \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, in kilograms.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

$T_{1}$ , $T_{2}$ - Initial and final temperatures of water, in Kelvin.

If we know that $m = 1\,kg$ , $c_{w} = 4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$ , $T_{1} = 373.15\,K$ and $T_{2} = 288.15\,K$ , then the change in entropy for the entire process is:

$s_{2} - s_{1} = (1\,kg) \cdot \left(4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K} \right)\cdot \ln \frac{288.15\,K}{373.15\,K}$

$s_{2} - s_{1} = -1083.112\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}$

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

Magnesium burns with a very bright light. When the flame goes out, a White powder is left behind. what is the word equation for

melisa1 [442]

When magnesium is burned, it reacts with oxygen in air not with the fire. The fire is the energy needed for the reaction to happen. Magnesium reacts with oxygen forming magnesium oxide. The light emitted from the reaction is because the reaction produced a lot of heat.

If 0.0106 g of a gas dissolves in 0.792 L of water at 0.321 atm, what quantity of this gas (in grams) will dissolve at 5.73 atm?

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

0.189 g.

Explanation:

This problem is an application on Henry's law.

Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its partial pressure of the gas above the liquid.

Solubility of the gas ∝ partial pressure

If we have different solubility at different pressures, we can express Henry's law as:

S₁/P₁ = S₂/P₂,

S₁ = 0.0106/0.792 = 0.0134 g/L and P₁ = 0.321 atm

S₂ = ??? g/L and P₂ = 5.73 atm

So, The solubility of the gas at 5.73 atm (S₂) = S₁.P₂/P₁ = (0.0134 g/L x 5.73 atm) / (0.321 atm) = 0.239 g/L.

The quantity in (g) = S₂ x V = (0.239 g/L)(0.792 L) = 0.189 g.

When water vapor condenses, how much heat energy will be released into the atmosphere?

Leona [35]

When water vapor condenses, 2260 joules/gram heat energy will be released into the atmosphere.

To add, heat energy (or thermal energy or simply heat) is defined as a form of energy which transfers among particles in a substance (or system) by means of kinetic energy of those particles. In other words, under kinetic theory, the heat is transferred by particles bouncing into each other.
