Does anyone know why electron affinity increases as going upward in the periodic table

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

Electron affinity increases upward for the groups and from left to right across periods of a periodic table because the electrons added to energy levels become closer to the nucleus, thus a stronger attraction between the nucleus and its electrons.

60 kg of fuel was completely burnt for an experiment. The amount of heat energy was found to be 180000KJ. Calculate calorific va

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

3000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.

It is given by:

$C=\frac{Q}{m}$

where

Q is the amount of heat released

m is the mass of the fuel

In this problem, we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel

$Q=180,000 kJ$ is the amount of heat released

Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:

$C=\frac{180,000}{60}=3000 kJ/kg$
