<span>While
treating food with gamma rays kills microorganism by damaging their DNA, the energy
of gamma rays rips off electrons from atoms hence ionizing them (causing free radicals).
However, gamma rays do not make the food atoms radioactive. The body has a natural
mechanism of riding the body of free radicals. However, large quantities of radicals in the body can cause
damage.</span>
The change in internal energy of the combustion of biphenyl in Kj is calculated as follows
=heat capacity of bomb calorimeter x delta T where delta T is change in temperature
delta T = 29.4 -25.8= 3.6 c
= 5.86 kj/c x 3.6 c = 21.096 kj
Answer:
2Al+ 6HNO3 ---- 3H2 + 2Al(NO3)3
Explanation:
Put coefficient a,b,c, and d for calculation:
a Al + b HNO3 = c H2 + d Al(NO3)3
for Al: a = d
for H: b = 2c
for N: b = 3d
for O: 3b = 9d
Suppose a=1, then d=1, b=3, c=3/2
multiply 2 to make all natural number, a=2, then b=6, c=3, d=2
Answer: 253.8
Explanation:
The molar mass of iodine is 126.904. Multiply that by two and you get approximately 253.8 grams in two moles.
This is a straightforward question related to the surface energy of the droplet.
<span>You know the surface area of a sphere is 4π r² and its volume is (4/3) π r³. </span>
<span>With a diameter of 1.4 mm you have an original droplet with a radius of 0.7 mm so the surface area is roughly 6.16 mm² (0.00000616 m²) and the volume is roughly 1.438 mm³. </span>
<span>The total surface energy of the original droplet is 0.00000616 * 72 ~ 0.00044 mJ </span>
<span>The five smaller droplets need to have the same volume as the original. Therefore </span>
<span>5 V = 1.438 mm³ so the volume of one of the smaller spheres is 1.438/5 = 0.287 mm³. </span>
<span>Since this smaller volume still has the volume (4/3) π r³ then r = cube_root(0.287/(4/3) π) = cube_root(4.39) = 0.4 mm. </span>
<span>Each of the smaller droplets has a surface area of 4π r² = 2 mm² or 0.0000002 m². </span>
<span>The surface energy of the 5 smaller droplets is then 5 * 0.000002 * 72.0 = 0.00072 mJ </span>
<span>From this radius the surface energy of all smaller droplets is 0.00072 and the difference in energy is 0.00072- 0.00044 mJ = 0.00028 mJ. </span>
<span>Therefore you need roughly 0.00028 mJ or 0.28 µJ of energy to change a spherical droplet of water of diameter 1.4 mm into 5 identical smaller droplets. </span>
