Gina was given an irregularly shaped piece of metal and was told that the density of the metal was 10 g/cm3. She measured the ma

ss of the piece to be 210 g. What was the volume of the piece of metal Gina was given?

Answer:

The volume of the piece of the metal Gina is found to be 21 cm^{3}

Explanation:

Given density of the metal = 10 g/cm^{3}

Given mass of the piece of the metal = 210 g

Assuming volume of piece of metal to be V cm^{3}

The expression for the density is shown below

\textrm{Density} = \displaystyle \frac{\textrm{Mass of piece of metal}}{\textrm{Volume of piece of metal}}\\10 \textrm{ g/cm}^{3} = \displaystyle \frac{210 \textrm{ g}}{V} \\V = 21 \textrm{cm}^{3}

Volume of the piece of metal = 21 cm^{3}

Three kilograms of steam is contained in a horizontal, frictionless piston and the cylinder is heated at a constant pressure of
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Final temperature: 659.8ºC

Expansion work: 3*75=225 kJ

Internal energy change: 275 kJ

Explanation:

First, considering both initial and final states, write the energy balance:

U_{2}-U_{1}=Q-W

Q is the only variable known. To determine the work, it is possible to consider the reversible process; the work done on a expansion reversible process may be calculated as:

dw=Pdv

The pressure is constant, so:  w=P(v_{2}-v_{1} )=0.5*100*1.5=75\frac{kJ}{kg} (There is a multiplication by 100 due to the conversion of bar to kPa)

So, the internal energy change may be calculated from the energy balance (don't forget to multiply by the mass):

U_{2}-U_{1}=500-(3*75)=275kJ

On the other hand, due to the low pressure the ideal gas law may be appropriate. The ideal gas law is written for both states:

P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}

P_{2}V_{2}=nRT_{2}\\V_{2}=2.5V_{1}\\P_{2}=P_{1}\\2.5P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{2}  

Subtracting the first from the second:

1.5P_{1}V_{1}=nR(T_{2}-T_{1})

Isolating T_{2}:

T_{2}=T_{1}+\frac{1.5P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}

Assuming that it is water steam, n=0.1666 kmol

V_{1}=\frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{8.314*0.1666*373.15}{500} =1.034m^{3}

T_{2}=100+\frac{1.5*500*1.034}{0.1666*8.314}=659.76 ºC

What is the hybridization of the central atom in CO2? Hybridization = What are the approximate bond angles in this substance? Bo
const2013 [10]

Answer:

sp

Explanation:

Hybridization is the combination of atomic orbitals to yield equivalent hybrid orbitals of appropriate energy which can participate in bonding.

In every compound there is a central atom. The central atom is usually the least electronegative atom in the molecule. In this case the least electronegative atom in the molecule is carbon.

The bond between carbon and oxygen in CO2 is intermittent between a pure double and a pure triple bond. Hence, carbon is sp hybridized.

What happens to the molecules of water when the water changes from liquid to gas?.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: Molecules only speed up when given energy, such as heating. When you heat water enough, it will boil and turn into water vapor. So, therefore, if water's molecules speed up, it will go into the gas phase

Explanation: As that liquid water is further heated, it evaporates and becomes a gas—water vapor. These changes between states (melting, freezing, and evaporating) happen because as the temperature either increases or decreases, the molecules in a substance begin to speed up or slow down.

Hope this helps! ^w^
