The more particles a substance has at a given temperature, the more thermal energy it has.
olasank [31]
The statement '<span>The more particles a substance has at a given temperature, the more thermal energy it has' is true. </span><span>The kinetic molecular theory of gases has three main laws and one of them is the average kinetic energy of the particles in a gas. The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is the behavior and movement it does in the surroundings. It is directly proportional to temperature wherein if you increase the temperature, the kinetic energy of a particle also increases. It will also decrease its movement or its kinetic energy if the temperature lowers. </span>

When 1.14 g of octane (molar mass = 114 g/mol) reacts with excess oxygen in a constant volume calorimeter, the temperature of th
balandron [24]

Answer:

Q (reaction) = -69.7 kJ

Explanation:

Octane reacts with oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ---> 16 CO₂ +18 H₂O

This reaction is exothermic in nature. Therefore, the energy is released into the atmosphere. This reaction took place in a calorimeter, there the temperature (T) increases by 10 C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 6.97 kJ/C

The heat (q) of the reaction is calculated as follows:

Q= -cT, where c is the heat capacity of the calorimeter and T is the increase in temperature

q = -(6.97) x (10) = -69.7kJ

<em>Since the heat capacity is given in kilo -joule per degree Celsius, therefore, the mass of octane is not required </em>

Friction provides the force needed for a car to travel around a flat, circular race track. What is the maximum speed at which a
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Maximum speed of the car is 17.37 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the circular track, r = 79 m

The coefficient of friction, \mu=0.39

To find,

The maximum speed of car.

Solution,

Let v is the maximum speed of the car at which it can safely travel. It can be calculated by balancing the centripetal force and the gravitational force acting on it as :

v=\sqrt{\mu rg}

v=\sqrt{0.39\times 79\times 9.8}

v = 17.37 m/s

So, the maximum speed of the car is 17.37 m/s.
