Approximately how many ice cubes must melt to cool 650 milliliters of water from 29°C to 0°C? Assume that each ice cube contains

qwelly [4]

Answer : The number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of water.

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}$

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

Volume of water = 650 mL

$\text{Mass of water}=1.00g/mL\times 650mL=650g$

Now we have to calculate the heat released on cooling.

Heat released on cooling = $m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

where,

m = mass of water = 650 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $29^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature = $0^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Heat released on cooling = $650g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (29-0)^oC$

Heat released on cooling = 78793 J = 78.793 kJ (1 J = 0.001 kJ)

As, 1 ice cube contains 1 mole of water.

The heat required for 1 ice cube to melt = 6.02 kJ

Now we have to calculate the number of ice cubes melted.

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{\text{Total heat}}{\text{Heat for 1 ice cube}}$

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{78.793kJ}{6.02kJ}$

Number of ice cubes melted = 13.1 ≈ 13

Therefore, the number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

Despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided, you should be

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

G<0, spontanteous

H<0, from equation

S>0, gas to solid

Explanation:

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. Despite its name, silica gel is a solid. It is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of SiO2. Water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, so it acts as a desiccant. Despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided, you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. Predict the signs of ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS.

1. Why is it important to accurately predict the possible formation and path of a hurricane?

ad-work [718]

1) Prediction of a hurricane's path/formation can save lives, since we can predict the strength, then warn the people who are in danger of it's reach.

4) The more wind a hurricane has, usually the faster it tears apart, since the strong winds acts to constrict the center, limiting and sometimes altogether stopping the hurricane.

5) I'd say yes, since the humidity is really high, so the wind can whip that up into the heat, then the hot air descends to create a vortex.

How do we know which elements<br> are more reactive?

Natasha2012 [34]

For metals, reactivity increases down a group and from right to left across a period. Non metals, reactivitt increases up a grouo and from left to right across a period. Francium is the most reactive metal and fluorine is the most reactive non-metal.
