os and cons of each of the three chosen electrical power plants: thermal power plant (aka coal power plant)
nuclear power plant
solar power plant
hydroelectric power plant
geothermal power plant
tidal power plant
wind farms
The word radon is derived from radium, of which radon is gas. Early in its discovery it was also called radium emanation and niton, which comes from the Latin nitens, Since 1923, however, it has been called radon.
Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, 0.0185 moles of water are required.
<h3>Calorimetry</h3>
Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.
Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).
So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:
Q = c× m× ΔT
where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.
<h3>Mass of water required</h3>
In this case, you know:
Heat= 92.048 kJ
Mass of water = ?
Initial temperature of water= 34 ºC
Final temperature of water= 100 ºC
Specific heat of water = 4.186
Replacing in the expression to calculate heat exchanges:
92.048 kJ = 4.186 × m× (100 °C -34 °C)
92.048 kJ = 4.186 × m× 66 °C
m= 92.048 kJ ÷ (4.186 × 66 °C)
<u><em>m= 0.333 grams</em></u>
<h3>Moles of water required</h3>
Being the molar mass of water 18 , that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole, the moles of water required can be calculated as:
