I can model and explain how conduction transfers energy at a molecular level

2 answers:

3 0

Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them. This then continues and passes the energy from the hot end down to the colder end of the substance.

Answer:

method of heat transfers with molecules interact each other.

Explanation:

On a microscopic scale, conduction occurs as rapidly moving or vibrating atoms and molecules interact with neighboring particles, transferring some of their kinetic energy. Heat is transferred by conduction when adjacent atoms vibrate against one another, or as electrons move from one atom to another.

Which atom, selenium (Se) or Arsenic (As), has the higher electron affinity and why?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

5. Selenium, because it does not have a stable, half-filled p subshell and adding an electron does not decrease its stability.

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom accepts electron to form the corresponding anion.

Selenium:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

$[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^4$

Arsenic:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

$[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^3$

The 4p orbital in case of arsenic is half filled which makes the element having more stability as compared to selenium.

Thus, selenium has higher electron affinity because adding electron does not decrease the stability as in case of arsenic.

What is the quantity of heat (in kJ) associated with cooling 185.5 g of water from 25.60°C to ice at -10.70°C?Heat Capacity of S

Cerrena [4.2K]

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, sensible heat and latent heat, the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.

<h3>Calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

<h3>Sensible heat</h3>

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

<h3>Latent heat</h3>

Latent heat is defined as the energy required by a quantity of substance to change state.

When this change consists of changing from a solid to a liquid phase, it is called heat of fusion and when the change occurs from a liquid to a gaseous state, it is called heat of vaporization.

<u><em>25.60 °C to 0 °C</em></u>

First of all, you should know that the freezing point of water is 0°C. That is, at 0°C, water freezes and turns into ice.

So, you must lower the temperature from 25.60°C (in liquid state) to 0°C, in order to supply heat without changing state (sensible heat).

The amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

c= Heat Capacity of Liquid= 4.184 $\frac{J}{gC}$
m= 185.5 g
ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 0 °C - 25.60 °C= - 25.6 °C

Replacing:

Q1= 4.184 $\frac{J}{gC}$ × 185.5 g× (- 25.6 °C)

Solving:

<u><em>Change of state</em></u>

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to

Q = m×L

where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

In this case, you know:

n= 185.5 grams× $\frac{1mol}{18 grams}$ = 10.30 moles, where 18 $\frac{g}{mol}$ is the molar mass of water, that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.
