12. Which gas has the greatest kinetic energy at STP?
1 answer:
Answer:
d. none of the above (all have the same kinetic energy)
Explanation:
The kinetic theory of gases states that the molecules of an ideal gas experience a constant random motion.
At standard temperature and pressure (STP), the kinetic energy of an ideal gas such as hydrogen, argon, neon, sodium, oxygen, helium, magnesium, beryllium, nitrogen, carbon, fluorine, chlorine etc are all the same.
The standard temperature and pressure (STP) of an ideal gas is 273K and 100 kPa.
Hence, all of the gases have the same kinetic energy at standard temperature and pressure (STP).
Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.
Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;
Where, K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
M represents mass measured in kilograms.
V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>The specific heat capacity is defined as the quantity of heat (J) absorbed per unit mass (kg) of the material when its temperature increases by 1 K (or 1 °C), and its units are J/(kg K) or J/(kg °C).
Given,
the mass of Na is 23 g
The volume of water = 293 cm3
Mass of water = 293 g
Total solution mass = 23 g + 293 g = 316 g
Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/Kg
The equation relating mass, heat, specific heat capacity and temperature change is:
q = mcΔT
197 kJ = 316 g x 4.18 J/Kg x ()
197 kJ = 316 g x 4.18 J/Kg x ( -298 K)
0.1491429956 x 1000 = -298 K
149.1429956 + 298 =
447.1429956 =
448 K =
Hence, 448 K is the final temperature of the water.
<h3>What does a high specific heat capacity mean?</h3>A high specific heat capacity means that it can store a large amount of thermal energy for a small change in mass or temperature.
