Answer: Chemical energy

Explanation:

Campfires convert chemical energy stored in wood into thermal energy, which is useful for cooking food and staying warm. Nuclear energy generates a tremendous amount of thermal energy, which can be converted into electrical energy in a nuclear power plant.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Part 1

Where we have that the phase temperature at which fuel 1 changes to liquid due to its low temperature after the energy transfer is reached, fuel 1 changes to liquid

Where we have that the temperature of fuel 2 is still above its gas to liquid phase transition temperature, the fuel in fuel 2 will remain gaseous

Part 2

The kinetic energy of the individual molecules in fuel 1 is less than the intermolecular forces holding the molecules of fuel 1 in the liquid state such that fuel 1 molecules undergoes phase transformation from gas to liquid

The kinetic energy of the molecules in fuel 2 is higher than the fuel 2 liquid state intermolecular forces fuel 2 does not undergo phase transformation and remain a gas

Explanation:

Part 1

Why fuel 1 change phase but fuel 2 stayed the same can be explained by the combination of the following physical phenomena

1) Specific heat capacity of the fuels

2) Phase transition temperature of the fuels

The energy transferred out, ΔQ, can be expressed as follows;

ΔQ = m·c·ΔT

Where;

m = The mass of the fuel

c = The specific heat capacity of the fuel

ΔT = The temperature change of the fuel

Therefore, the energy transferred out, for a given mass of fuel, is directly proportional to the specific heat capacity, and the temperature change

For a given amount of transferred energy, when the specific heat capacity is high, the temperature change will be low and vice versa

Taking the specific heat capacity of fuel 1, c₁ as lower than the specific heat capacity of fuel 2, c₂₂, we have;

For a given energy transferred out, when c₁ < c₂ then we have, ΔT₁ > ΔT₂

The temperature change of fuel 1 is more than the temperature change of fuel 2 and if both fuels where initially at the same temperature and have the same mass, the final temperature of fuel T_{1f} will be lower than the final temperature of fuel 2, T_{2f}

2) The phase transition temperature is the temperature at which a material changes phase from solid to liquid, or liquid to gas and vice versa, and it is dependent on the intermolecular holding the molecules of the substances together

Whereby the phase temperature at which fuel 1 changes to liquid due to its low temperature after the energy transfer is reached, while the temperature in fuel 2 is still above its gas to liquid phase transition temperature, the gaseous fuel in fuel 1 will be changed to liquid, while the fuel in fuel 2 will remain gaseous

Part 2

After the energy is transferred out, the kinetic energy of the individual molecules in fuel 1 becomes lower than the intermolecular forces holding the molecules of fuel 1 in the liquid state and the fuel 1 molecules transforms from gas to liquid

However, after the given amount of energy is transferred out, the kinetic energy of the molecules in fuel 2 are still higher than the intermolecular forces that exists between the molecules of fuel 2 when in the liquid state, and therefore, fuel 2 remains gaseous

Homes in rural areas where natural gas service is not available often rely on propane to fuel kitchen ranges. The propane is sto
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

2666.7 hours

Explanation:

The key to solve this problem is that we are given the propane gas consumed in one hour by giving us the information of the volume consumed at 1 atm, 298 K (25 +273). Using the gas law we can calculate the rate of consumption  of propane per hour, and from here we can calculate its mass and converting it to gallons and finally diving the 400 gallos by this number.

PV = nRT ∴ n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm x 165 L/ (0.08206 Latm/kmol x 298 K ) = 6.75 mol propane

Mass propane :

6.75 mol x 44 g/mol = 296.88 g

convert this to Kg:

296.88 g/ 1000 g/Kg = 0.30 Kg

calculate the volume in liters this represents by dividing by the density:

0.30 Kg / 0.5077 Kg/L =  0.59 L

changing this to gallons

0.59 L x  1 gallon/3.785 L = 0.15 gallon

and finally calculate how many hours the 400 gallons propane tank will deliver

400 gallon/ 0.15 gallon/hr = 2666.7 hr

A 4.16L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 251.5K to 298.4 K. What is the volume of the gas after it is heated?
MrRa [10]

Answer:Answer:5.95 LExplanation:V1/V2 = T1/T24.82 L/V2 = 243.1K/300.1KV2 = 4.82*300.1/243.1 L = 5.95 L

Explanation: The volume of the balloon is 400 m3. To what temperature must the air in the balloon be heated before the balloon will lift off. (Air density at 10 oC is 1.25 kg/m3.)

A gas has a pressure of 3.16 atm at STP. I have decided to transfer it to a container that is 3 times larger than the original v
Oliga [24]

Answer:

<u>The new pressure is 1.0533 atm</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

According  to<u> Boyle's Law :</u> The Pressure of fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to Volume at constant temperature.

PV = Constant

P1V1 = P2V2

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}.....(1)

P1 = 3.16 atm

Accprding to question ,

V1 = V

V2 = 3 V

Insert the value of V1 , V2 and P1 in the equation(1)

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}

3.16\times V=P_{2}\times 3V

V and V cancel each other

3.16=P_{2}\times 3

P_{2}=\frac{3.16}{3}

P_{2}=1.05atm
