Answer:

500,050000 years

Explanation:

Given that :

Rate of Accumulation = 3cm/ 1000 years

Height of seamounts = 1.5km

Representing height of seamounts in cm;

(1.5 *1000 * 100) = 1500150 cm

Time taken = height / rate

Time taken = (1500150 cm / 3cm) * 1000

Time taken = 500,050000 years

1. How many joules of heat are required to raise the temperature of 750 g of water from 11.0 oC to 19.0 oC?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

  1. 25080 J
  2. 146.9 g
  3. 92.58 °C
  4. 0.808 J/g°C
  5. 117.09 g
  6. a. 1708.8 kJ  b.1246.56 kJ
  7. 368.55 kJ
  8. 6.81 kJ
  9. 5.50 grams of methane produces more heat than 5.5 grams of propane.

Explanation:

  1. The specific heat capacity of water=4.18 J/gK

The enthalpy change is calculated using the formula: ΔH=MC∅ where ΔH is the change in enthalpy, M the mass of the substance, C the specific heat capacity of the substance and ∅ the temperature change.

Thus, ΔH= 750g × 4.18 J/gK × (19-11)K

=25080 J

2. Enthalpy change= mass of substance × specific heat capacity of the substance× Change in temperature.

ΔH= MC∅

M= ΔH/(C∅)

Substituting for the values in the question.

M=8750 J/(0.9025/g°C×66.0 °C)

=146.9 grams

3. Enthalpy change =mass × specific heat capacity × Temperature

ΔH= MC∅

∅ = ΔH/(MC)

=6500 J/(250 g × 4.18 J/g°C)

=6.22° C

Final temperature =98.8 °C - 6.22°C

=92.58 °C

4. Specific heat capacity =mass × specific heat capacity × Temperature change.

ΔH=MC∅

C= ΔH/(M∅)

Substituting with the values in the question.

C = 4786 J/(89.0 g×(89.5° C-23°C))

=0.808 J/g°C

5. Heat lost lost copper is equal to the heat gained by water.

ΔH(copper)= ΔH(water)

MC∅(copper)=MC∅(water)

M×0.385 J/g°C× (75.6°C- (19.1 °C+5.5°C))=100.0g×4.18 J/g°C×5.5 °C

M=(100.0g×4.18J/g°C×5.5°C)/(0.385 J/g°C×51 °C)

=117.09 grams.

6 (a). From the equation 1 mole of methane gives out 890.4 kJ

There fore 2 moles give:

(2×890.4)/1= 1780.8 kJ  

(b) 22.4 g of methane.

Number of moles= mass/ RFM

RFM=12 + 4×1

=16

No. of moles =22.4 g/16g/mol

=1.4 moles

Therefore 1.4 moles produce:

1.4 moles × 890.4 kJ/mol=

=1246.56 kJ

7. From the equation, 2 moles of aluminium react with ammonium nitrate to produce 2030 kJ

Number of moles = mass/RAM

Therefore 9.75 grams = (9.75/26.982) moles of aluminium.

=0.3613 moles.

If 2 moles produce 2030 kJ, then 0.3613 moles produce:

(0.3631 moles×2030 kJ)/2

=368.55 kJ

8. From the equation, 4 moles of ammonia react with excess oxygen to produce 905.4 kJ of energy.

Number of moles= mass/molar mass

RMM= 14+3×1= 17

Therefore 0.5113 grams of ammonia = (0.5113 g/17g/mole) moles

= 0.0301 moles

If 4 moles produce 905.4 kJ, then 0.0301 moles produce:

(0.0301 moles×905.4 kJ)/4 moles

=6.81 kJ

9. From the equations, one mole of methane produces 890 kJ of energy while one mole of propane produces 2043 kJ.

Lets change 5.5 grams into moles of either alkane.

Number of moles= Mass/RMM

For propane, number of moles= 5.5g/ 44.097g/mol

=0.125 moles

For methane number of moles =5.5 g/ 16g/mol

=0.344 moles

0.125 moles of propane produce:

0.125 moles×2043 kJ/mol

=255.375kJ

0.344 moles of methane produce:

0.344 moles× 890 kJ/mol

= 306.16kJ

Therefore, 5.5 grams of methane produces more heat than 5.5 grams of propane.

Why does liquid stay at a constant temperature while it is boiling?
GaryK [48]
It is because say water boils at 212 F, if it goes higher at 213 it would get so much heat and energy it turns into a gas, so it cannot stay a liquid with 213 because at that point it would be gas, thus when water reaches 212 it's max if it goes any higher it will be gas

What is an element considered a pure substance?
Alona [7]

A compound is a pure substance composed of two or more different atoms chemically bonded to one another. A compound can be destroyed by chemical means. It might be broken down into simpler compounds, into its elements or a combination of the two.

Part complete When a 235 92U nucleus is bombarded by neutrons (10n) it undergoes a fission reaction, resulting in the formation
nikdorinn [45]

<u>Answer:</u> The isotopic symbol of barium is _{56}^{138}\textrm{Ba} and that of strontium is _{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fission reactions are defined as the reactions in which a heavier nuclei breaks down in two or more smaller nuclei.

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

  • For the given fission reaction:

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+3^1_0\textrm{n}

  • <u>To calculate A:</u>

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 94 + 3

A = 139

  • <u>To calculate Z:</u>

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = Z + 36 + 0

Z = 56

The isotopic symbol of barium is _{56}^{139}\textrm{Ba}

  • For the given fission reaction:

^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{Sr}+^{143}_{54}\textrm{Xe}+3^1_0\textrm{n}

  • <u>To calculate A:</u>

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 143 + 3

A = 90

  • <u>To calculate Z:</u>

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = Z + 54 + 0

Z = 38

The isotopic symbol of strontium is _{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}

Hence, the isotopic symbol of barium is _{56}^{138}\textrm{Ba} and that of strontium is _{38}^{89}\textrm{Sr}

If an object has a density of 0.55 g/mL, what is its density in cg/L?
expeople1 [14]

"cg" is centigram, which is one-hundredth of a gram.

I will first convert from g to cg (multiply by 100), then from mL to L (multiply by 1000).

\frac{0.55g}{mL}*\frac{100cg}{1g}*\frac{1000mL}{1L}=55,000\frac{cg}{L} \ or \ 5.5e4\frac{cg}{L}
