How much energy does it take to boil water for pasta? For a one-pound box of pasta

Physics
1 answer:
alexandr1967 [171]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. 164°F

b. 91.\overline 1 \  ^{\circ} C

c. 140.\overline 4 kJ

Explanation:

The starting temperature of the water, T₁ = 48F

The temperature at which the water boils, T₂ = 212°F

a. The difference between the initial and the boiling water temperature, ΔT = T₂ - T₁

Therefore;

ΔT = 212°F - 48°F = 164°F

The temperature by which he temperature must be raised, ΔT = 164°F

b. 48°F = ((48 - 32)×5/9)°C = (80/9)°C = 8.\overline 8 \ ^{\circ} C

212°F = ((212 - 32)×5/9)°C = 100°C

∴ ΔT = 100°C - 8.\overline 8 \ ^{\circ} C = 9.\overline 1 \  ^{\circ} C

c. The heat capacity of the water = The heat required to increase four quartz of water by 1 °C = 15.8 kJ

∴ The heat required to raise four quartz of water by 9.\overline 1 \  ^{\circ} C, ΔQ = 15.8 kJ/°C × 9.\overline 1 \  ^{\circ} C = 140.\overline 4 kJ.

A certain atom has atomic number Z = 25 and atomic mass number A = 52. a. What is the approximate radius of the nucleus of this
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a)The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Explanation:

r=r_o\times A^{\frac{1}{3}}

r_o=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m = Constant for all nuclei

r = Radius of the nucleus

A = Number of nucleons

a) Given atomic number of an element = 25

Atomic mass or nucleon number = 52

r=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m\times (52)^{\frac{1}{3}}

r=4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=4.6656 fm

The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) F=k\times \frac{q_1q_2}{a^2}

k=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2 = Coulombs constant

q_1,q_2 = charges kept at distance 'a' from each other

F = electrostatic force between charges

q_1=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

q_2=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

Force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter

a=2\times r=2\times 4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=9.3312\times 10^{-15} m

F=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\times \frac{(+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)\times (+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)}{(9.3312\times 10^{-15} m)^2}

F=2.6527 N

The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Is an atom with one valence electron more reactive than an atom with two electrone? ​
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

An atom with a closed shell of valence electrons (corresponding to an electron configuration s2p6) tends to be chemically inert. An atom with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell is highly reactive, because the extra valence electrons are easily removed to form a positive ion.Explanation:
