A 25.0g sample of brass, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.375·J·g−1°C−1, is dropped into an insulated container containin

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The equilibrium temperature of water is 25.6 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample of brass = 25.0 grams

The specific heat capacity = 0.375 J/g°C

Mass of water = 250.0 grams

Temperature of water = 25.0 °C

The initial temperature of the brass is 96.7°C

Step 2: Calculate the equilibrium temperature

Heat lost = heat gained

Q(sample) = -Q(water)

Q = m*C* ΔT

m(sample)*c(sample)*ΔT(sample) = - m(water)*c(water)*ΔT(water)

⇒m(sample) = the mass of the sample of brass = 25.0 grams

⇒with c(sample) =The specific heat capacity = 0.375 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT = the change of temperature = T2 - T1 =T2 - 96.7 °C

⇒with m(water) = the mass of the water = 250.0 grams

⇒with c(water) = the specific heat capacity = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = the change of temperature of water = T2 - T1 = T2 - 25.0°C

25.0 * 0.375 * (T2 - 96.7) = - 250.0 * 4.184 J/g°C * (T2 - 25.0°C)

9.375T2 - 906.56 = -1046T2 + 26150

9.375T2 + 1046T2 = 26150 + 906.56

1055.375T2 = 27056.26

T2 = 25.6 °C

The equilibrium temperature of water is 25.6 °C

A breeder nuclear reactor is a reactor in which nonfissile U-238 is converted into fissile Pu-239. The process involves bombardm

VARVARA [1.3K]

<u>Answer:</u> The nuclear equations for the given process is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the bombardment of neutron to U-238 isotope follows:

$_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}+n\rightarrow _{92}^{239}\textrm{U}$

Beta decay is defined as the process in which neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

The chemical equation for the first beta decay process of $_{92}^{239}\textrm{U}$ follows:

$_{92}^{239}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^0\beta$

The chemical equation for the second beta decay process of $_{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}$ follows:

$_{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}\rightarrow _{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Hence, the nuclear equations for the given process is written above.

A sample of carbon dioxide gas occupies a volume of 250 mL at 25c what volume will it occupy at 95c

anzhelika [568]

Considering the Charles's law, the sample of carbon dioxide gas will occupy 308.72 mL.

<h3>Charles's law</h3>

Charles's law establishes the relationship between the temperature and the volume of a gas when the pressure is constant. This law says that the volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas: for a given sum of gas at constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases.

Mathematically, Charles's law states that the ratio between volume and temperature will always have the same value:

$\frac{V}{T} =k$
