How much energy must be added to a 2-kg piece of wood with a specific heat

Chemistry
1 answer:
lesya692 [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A. 140,800 J

Explanation:

Specific heat of a material is defined as the amount of energy required to increase in 1°C 1kg of the material. <em>For wood there are required 1760J perkg per °C.</em>

The equation is:

Q = C*m*ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat in Joules,</em>

<em>C is specific heat (1760J/kg°C),</em>

<em>m is mass (2kg)</em>

<em>ΔT is change in temperature (50°C - 10°C = 40°C)</em>

Replacing:

Q = 1760J/kg°C*2kg*40°C

Q = 140800J

Right option is:

<h3>A. 140,800 J </h3>

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

P2= 0.696atm

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's law

P1V1= P2V2

1.14×16.9= P2× 27.7

Simplify

P2= (1.14×16.9)/27.7

P2= 0.696atm

What is nuclear fission
swat32
Nuclear fission is the process of which a large nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei with the release of energy and neutron. In simpler words, nuclear fission is the process in which a nucleus is split into two smaller fragments or pieces (nuclei) and so energy and neutrons are released. The resulting pieces of this fission process have less combined mass than the original piece (nucleus) and the missing was is converted into nuclear energy.

Why is an electron ejected when green light hits the metal?
Roman55 [17]

Explanation:

If a large photon strikes the surface, that has enough strength to take out an electrode, which will then travel to the positive side since it is negative. Current is flowing at this stage. Since the reduced photons will be unable to distinguish between atoms, no power can pass.

What is the maximum amount of CO2
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

10.6 g CO₂

Explanation:

You have not been given a limiting reagent. Therefore, to find the maximum amount of CO₂, you need to convert the masses of both reactants to CO₂. The smaller amount of CO₂ produced will be the accurate amount. This is because that amount is all the corresponding reactant can produce before it runs out.

To find the mass of CO₂, you need to (1) convert grams C₂H₂/O₂ to moles (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles C₂H₂/O₂ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams (via molar mass). *I had to guess the chemical reaction because the reaction coefficients are necessary in calculating the mass of CO₂.*

C₂H₂ + O₂ ----> 2 CO₂ + H₂

9.31 g C₂H₂            1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
------------------  x  -------------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------  =
                            26.0373 g           1 mole C₂H₂              1 mole

=  31.5 g CO₂

3.8 g O₂             1 mole               2 moles CO₂          44.0095 g
-------------  x  --------------------  x  ----------------------  x  --------------------  =
                       31.9988 g              1 mole O₂                 1 mole

=  10.6 g CO₂

10.6 g CO₂ is the maximum amount of CO₂ that can be produced. In other words, the entire 3.8 g O₂ will be used up in the reaction before all of the 9.31 g C₂H₂ will be used.
