Hornfels is a metamorphic rock that can form when a rock is subjected to high temperatures (extreme pressure ). Hornfels, which often forms when magma or lava touches other rock, is non foliated. Heat and pressure changes both igneous rocks sedimentary rocks into metamorphic <span>rocks. hope this helps! :)</span>

1. How much heat (in calories) is needed to raise 20 g of H2O from 5°C to 40°C? (c = 1.0 cal/g °C)
KIM [24]

Answer:

700 calories

Explanation:

Using the formula below:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat required (calories)

m = mass of substance (g)

c = specific heat of substance (cal/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, the following information was provided;

Q = ?

m = 20g

c = 1.0 cal/g °C

∆T = 40°C - 5°C = 35°C

Using the formula; Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 20 × 1 × 35

Q = 700 calories

Hence, 700 cal of heat energy is needed to raise 20 g of H2O from 5°C to 40°C.

A steel tank contains carbon dioxide at a pressure of 13.0 atm when the temperature is 34oC. What will be the internal gas press
morpeh [17]

Answer:

D. 15.8atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial pressure = 13atm

Initial temperature  = 34°C = 34 + 273  = 307K

Final temperature  = 100°C = 100 + 273  = 373K

Unknown:

Final pressure  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply a derivation of the combined gas law taking the volume as a constant.

The expression is shown mathematically below;

        \frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} }   = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }

P and T pressure and temperature values

1 and 2 are initial and final states

 Insert the parameters and solve for T₂;

    \frac{13}{307}   = \frac{P_{2} }{373}  

        P₂  = 15.8atm
