What is an advantage of using natural gas rather than a coal burning power plant?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Olenka [21]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

I hope it helps u

Explanation:

The advantages of using natural gas rather than coal are the following,

  • Natural gas is present in large amount than coal.
  • Natural gas is less costly than other fossil fuel sources of energy.
  • It increases security by decreasing dependence.
  • Natural gas is more environmentally friendly.
  • Natural gas is much safer to store.
  • It is reliable.
  • Natural gas is a fossil fuel, though the global warming emissions from its combustion are much lower than those from coal or oil.
  • Natural gas emits 50 to 60 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted in a new, efficient natural gas-power plant compared with emissions from a typical new coal plant.

How do you find the pressure in a container if you don't have the temperature? 
BARSIC [14]
It depends on the process.
Like for example if the process is isothermal(temperature is constant), you can use,
PV = constant or P1V1 = P2V2 where P1V1 are initial conditions and P2V2 are final.


For adiabatic process,

PV^gamma = constant or P1V1 ^gamma = P2V2 ^gamma.

where gamma = Cp
                          ------
                           Cv
Cp = specific heat at constant pressure and Cv = specific at constant volume.

Value of Gamma will be given in question.
Hope this helps!

explain why it is a common laboratory procedure to heat analytical reagents and store them in a dessicated atmosphere (a sealed
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Most reagent forms are going to absorb water from the air; they're called "hygroscopic".  Water presence can have a drastic impact on the experiment being performed  For fact, it increases the reagent's molecular weight, meaning that anything involving a very specific molarity (the amount of molecules in the final solution) will not function properly.

Heating will help to eliminate water, although some chemicals don't react well to heat, so it shouldn't be used for all.  A dessicated environment is simply a means to  "dry."  That allows the reagent with little water in the air to attach with.

A reaction at -6.0 °C evolves 786. mmol of sulfur tetrafluoride gas. Calculate the volume of sulfur tetrafluoride gas that is co
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

V of Sulfur tetrafluoride is  17.2 L

Explanation:

Given data;

T = -6°C =  267K                                [1° C  = 273 K]

n = 786 mmol of SF4 which is 0.786 mol

P = 1 atm

from ideal gas law  we have

PV = nRT

where n is mole, R is gas constant, V is volume

V = \frac{nRT}{P}V = \frac{0.786 mol \times 0.082 atmL/mol K \times* 267K}{1atm} = 17.2 L

V of Sulfur tetrafluoride is  17.2 L
