Energy can be generated without burning fossil fuels

Explanation:

The main positive effect of nuclear power plants is that energy can be generated without burning off fossil fuels.

Nuclear power is an alternate source of energy.

  • As much as there are problems with disposal of radioactive wastes, nuclear energy does from power plants does not release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
  • Burning of fossil fuel creates an environmental mess by releasing pollutants into the atmosphere.
  • This way, global warming can result.
  • Nuclear energy does not involve the burning of any fossil fuel. Nuclear fuels are used in this process.

Suppose an ice cube weighing 36.0 g at a temperature of 10°C is placed in 360 g water at a temperature of 20°C. Calculate the te
Scilla [17]

Answer:

10.44 °C

Explanation:

When the thermal equilibrium is reached, both of the substances have the same final temperature (T). The liquid water will lose heat, and the ice cube will absorb this heat. The temperature of the ice will increase until it reaches 0°C, at this temperature, it will change of phase for liquid, absorbing heat, but without a change in the temperature. Then the temperature will increase until the equilibrium.

By the energy conservation, the total amount of heat must be equal to 0:

Qice + Qmelting + Qliquid1 + Qliquid2 = 0

Liquid 1 is the ice after melting, and liquid 2 the liquid that was already at the flask. When there's a change of temperature:

Q = n*c*ΔT, where n is the number of moles, c is the heat capacity and ΔT is the temperature change (final - initial). The temperature variation in °C is equal in K, so the temperature may be used in °C.

The melting heat is:

Q = n*Hfus, Hfus = 6007 J/mol

The molar mass of the water is 18 g/mol, so the number of moles of the water and the ice are:

nwater = nliquid1 = 360/18 = 20 moles

nice = 36/18 = 2 moles

Qice + Qmelting + Qliquid1 + Qliquid2 = 0

2*38*(0 - (-10)) + 2*6007 + 2*75*(T - 0) + 20*75*(T - 20) = 0

760 + 12014 + 150T + 1500T - 30000 = 0

1650T = 17226

T = 10.44 °C
