Do x-rays travel slower than infrared

1 answer:

3 0

No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.

When backpacking in the wilderness, hikers often boil water to sterilize it for drinking. Suppose that you are planning a backpa

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

2.104 L fuel

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of water = 35 L = 35 × 10³ mL

initial temperature of water = 25.0 ° C

The amount of heat needed to boil water at this temperature can be calculated by using the formula:

$q_{boiling} = mc \Delta T$

where

specific heat of water c= 4.18 J/g° C

$q_{boiling} = 35 \times 10^{3} \times \dfrac{1.00 \ g}{1 \ mL} \times 4.18 \ J/g^0 C \times (100 - 25)^0 C$

$q_{boiling} = 10.9725 \times 10^6 \ J$

Also; Assume that the fuel has an average formula of C7 H16 and 15% of the heat generated from combustion goes to heat the water;

thus the heat of combustion can be determined via the expression

$q_{combustion} =- \dfrac{q_{boiling}}{0.15}$

$q_{combustion} =- \dfrac{10.9725 \times 10^6 J}{0.15}$

$q_{combustion} = -7.315 \times 10^{7} \ J$

$q_{combustion} = -7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ$

For heptane; the equation for its combustion reaction can be written as:

$C_7H_{16} + 11O_{2(g)} -----> 7CO_{2(g)}+ 8H_2O_{(g)}$

The standard enthalpies of the products and the reactants are:

$\Delta H _f \ CO_{2(g)} = -393.5 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H _f \ H_2O_{(g)} = -242 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H _f \ C_7H_{16 }_{(g)} = -224.4 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H _f \ O_{2{(g)}} = 0 kJ/mol$

Therefore; the standard enthalpy for this combustion reaction is:

$\Delta H ^0= \sum n_p\Delta H^0_{f(products)}- \sum n_r\Delta H^0_{f(reactants)}$

$\Delta H^0 =( 7 \ mol ( -393.5 \ kJ/mol) + 8 \ mol (-242 \ kJ/mol) -1 \ mol( -224.4 \ kJ/mol) - 11 \ mol (0 \ kJ/mol))$

$\Delta H^0 = (-2754.5 \ \ kJ - 1936 \ \ kJ+224.4 \ \ kJ+0 \ \ kJ)$

$\Delta H^0 = -4466.1 \ kJ$

This simply implies that the amount of heat released from 1 mol of C7H16 = 4466.1 kJ

However the number of moles of fuel required to burn $7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ$ heat released is:

$n_{fuel} = \dfrac{q}{\Delta \ H^0}$

$n_{fuel} = \dfrac{-7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ}{-4466.1 \ kJ}$

$n_{fuel} = 16.38 \ mol \ of \ C_7 H_{16$

Since number of moles = mass/molar mass

The mass of the fuel is:

$m_{fuel } = 16.38 mol \times 100.198 \ g/mol}$

$m_{fuel } = 1.641 \times 10^{3} \ g$

Given that the density of the fuel is = 0.78 g/mL

and we know that :

density = mass/volume

therefore making volume the subject of the formula in order to determine the volume of the fuel ; we have

volume of the fuel = mass of the fuel / density of the fuel

volume of the fuel = $\dfrac{1.641 \times 10^3 \ g }{0.78 g/mL} \times \dfrac{L}{10^3 \ mL}$

volume of the fuel = 2.104 L fuel

75 mL of water is added to a 360 mL solution of acetic acid with a concentration of 0.87 M. Determine the molarity of the new so

kramer

Answer:

The molarity of the new solution is 0.72 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the original solution = 360 mL =.360 L

Molarity = 0.87 M

We add 75 mL = 0.075 L

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = molarity * volume

Moles = 0.87 M * 0.360 L

Moles = 0.3132 moles

Step 3: Calculate new molarity

The number of moles stays constant

Molarity = moles / volume

Molarity = 0.3132 moles / (0.36+0.075)

Molarity = 0.3132 moles / 0.435 L

Molarity = 0.72 M

The molarity of the new solution is 0.72 M

sveta [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1 M

Explanation:

Data

Molarity = ?

mass of CaCl₂ = 222.2 g

Volume = 2 l

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of CaCl₂

CaCl₂ = 40 + (35.5 x 2) = 40 + 71 = 111 g

2.- Calculate the moles of CaCl₂

111g of CaCl₂ ---------------- 1 mol

222.2 f of CaCl₂ ---------------- x

x = (222.2 x 1) / 111

x = 222.2 / 111

x = 2 moles

3.- Calculate the Molarity

Molarity = moles / Volume

-Substitution

Molarity = 2/2

-Result

Molarity = 1
