Answer:
As you haven't explained what measurements you took before solving this problem, I will explain the general procedure to evaluate the efficiency of a kettle. I hope it helps you. I´ll send an attachement file with the full answer, since I couldn't write it here.
I assume that the material that is going to be heated in the kettle is water.
1- You have to boil water in it and take the time it takes to its boiling point (in seconds).
2- You have to evaluate the amount of energy the water absorbed Q with the efficiency formula which I explain in the attachement file.
3- Divide Q by the time it took to bring the water to boiling so you can have the power it consumed.
4- You divide the last value you obtained by the Kettles's power rating.
5- Multiply the last value by 100 to obtain a percentage value of efficiency.
Explanation:
Efficiency is the ration of a machine's useful work, in this case how much energy the water absorbed to get to its boiling point divided by the time it took to get to this point, and the total energy expended, in this case the kettles's power rating.
Answer:
By visiting other households with cats.
Explanation:
This will give Brian a variety of other houses and determine if it is truly cats or just alleries from other items. This is the most direct way to get Brian the answer he is looking for.
<u>Given:</u>
Volume of Na2CO3 = 250 ml = 0.250 L
Molarity of Na2CO3 = 6.0 M
Volume of CaF2 = 750 ml = 0.750 L
Molarity of CaF2 = 1.0 M
<u>To determine:</u>
The mass of CaCO3 produced
<u>Explanation:</u>
Na2CO3 + CaF2 → CaCO3 + 2NaF
Based on the reaction stoichiometry:
1 mole of Na2CO3 reacts with 1 moles of Caf2 to produce 1 mole of caco3
Moles of Na2CO3 present = V * M = 0.250 L * 6.0 moles/L = 1.5 moles
Moles of CaF2 present = V* M = 0.750 * 1 = 0.750 moles
CaF2 is the limiting reagent
Thus, # moles of CaCO3 produced = 0.750 moles
Molar mass of CaCO3 = 100 g/mol
Mass of CaCO3 produced = 0.750 moles * 100 g/mol = 75 g
Ans: Mass of CaCO3 produced = 75 g
To determine the time it takes to completely vaporize the given amount of water, we first determine the total heat that is being absorbed from the process. To do this, we need information on the latent heat of vaporization of water. This heat is being absorbed by the process of phase change without any change in the temperature of the system. For water, it is equal to 40.8 kJ / mol.
Total heat = 40.8 kJ / mol ( 1.50 mol ) = 61.2 kJ of heat is to be absorbed
Given the constant rate of 19.0 J/s supply of energy to the system, we determine the time as follows:
Time = 61.2 kJ ( 1000 J / 1 kJ ) / 19.0 J/s = 3221.05 s
Answer:
By decreasing pressure.
Explanation:
In order to prevent balloons from popping while making sculptures, it is suggested to decrease the pressure of air in parent balloon. Decreasing the pressure of parent balloon will allow it to twist easily and make designs.
This strategy will work according to Boyle's Law which states that, "Pressure and Volume are inversely proportional to each other at constant temperature".
Mathematically,
P ∝ 1/V
Or,
P = k/V
Or,
PV = k
Hence, as the new designs made after twisting are of less volume, therefore it is good to decrease the pressure in advance otherwise the resulting less volume will increase the pressure of daughter small balloons and will explode them.
