When you rub an inflated balloon on your head and it makes your hair stand up, the force that makes the hair stand up is known as static electricity.

When the balloon is rubbed on the head, electrons from the hair atoms move into the balloon, thus making the balloon to be negatively charged and the hair positively charged due to loss of electrons.

Unlike charges attracts. Thus, when you try to pull the balloon away slowly, the positively charged hair and the negatively charged balloon will attract each other and this is usually what makes the hair stand up.

The heat of vaporization of a liquid is 84.0 J/g. How many joules of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liq
Aliun [14]

Answer:

14,448 J of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liquid at its boiling point.

Explanation:

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to Q = m*L, where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

During the evaporation process, a substance goes from a liquid to a gaseous state and needs to absorb a certain amount of heat from its immediate surroundings, which results in its cooling. The heat absorbed is called the heat of vaporization.

So, it is called "heat of vaporization", the energy required to change 1 gram of substance from a liquid state to a gaseous state at the boiling point.

In this case, being:

  • Q=?
  • m= 172 g
  • L= 84 \frac{J}{g}

and replacing in the expression Q = m*L you get:

Q=172 g*84 \frac{J}{g}

Q=14,448 J

<u><em>14,448 J of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liquid at its boiling point.</em></u>
