Answer:

0.583 kilojoules

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to pop a single kernel can be calculated using the formula as follows:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (J)

m = mass of water (g)

c = specific heat capacity of water (4.184 J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature

From the given information, m = 0.905 g, initial temperature (room temperature) = 21°C , final temperature = 175°C, Q = ?

Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 0.905 × 4.184 × (175°C - 21°C)

Q = 3.786 × 154

Q = 583.044 Joules

In kilojoules i.e. we divide by 1000, the amount of heat is:

= 583.04/1000

= 0.583 kilojoules

Determine how many grams of N2 are produced from the reaction of 8.37 g of H2O2 and 5.29 g of N2H4.
Dmitriy789 [7]
N₂H₄  +  2H₂O₂    →   N₂  +  4H₂O

mol = mass ÷ molar mass

If mass of hydrazine (N₂H₄)  = 5.29 g 
then mol of hydrazine           = 5.29 g ÷ ((14 ×2) + (1 × 4))
                                              = 0.165 mol

mole ratio of hydrazine to Nitogen is     1   :  1
  ∴ if moles of hydrazine = 0.165 mol
     then moles of nitrogen = 0.165 mol

Mass = mol × molar mass

Since mol of nitrogen (N₂)  = 0.165
then mass of hydrazine      = 0.165 × (14 × 2)
                                           = 4.62 g

If a runner maintains a constant speed of 12 miles an hour how long will it take to complete a half marathon race of 13.1 miles?
Nutka1998 [239]
At 12 mph, how long does it take to go 13.1 miles?

We know that distance = rate * time
So we know that 13.1 = 12 * time
We can now see that time = 13.1/12 = 1.092 (hours)
That's approximately 1 hour and .092*60=5.52 minutes.

Of Be3+ , Li2+ , and He1+
Mama L [17]

Answer:He 1+

Explanation:

Both Hydrogen atom and helium ion are one electron species. Hence we expect the spectrum of the helium ion to closely resemble that of hydrogen atom also containing one valence electron.
