Why is it much safer picking up hot dishes with a dry cloth
than a wet one?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Using a dry tea towel to grab a hot pan puts the heat into the towel fibers, which are poor conductors of heat, and which serve to separate your hand from the hot pan by a set of air gaps.

Answer 2

A dry towel is a better insulator than a wet towel. Because the water in the wet towel fills the empty spaces between the fibers of the towel and helps to conduct heat. Therefore, it is much safer to pick up hot dishes with a dry cloth than a wet one.

What is thermal conduction?

Conduction can be described as the process by which heat is transferred from the hotter to the colder end of an object. The capability of the object to conduct heat is its thermal conductivity.

Heat flows along a temperature gradient. Heat is conducted from the hot plate of a stove to the bottom of a saucepan in contact with it, which is an example of thermal conduction.

In solids, conduction is the combination of vibrations and collisions of molecules, propagation and collisions, and diffusion of free electrons. In gases and liquids, conduction is due to the diffusion and collisions of molecules while their random motion. Therefore, thermal conduction will be faster in a wet towel than in a dry towel.

Can the pH scale be utilized for all acids (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis)? Give examples of substances from each definition category that can/cannot use the pH scale and explain your reasoning.

PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.

There are three main definitions of acids/bases

- Arrhenius definition

-Brownstead-Lowry definition

-Lewis definition

Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.

However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.

This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.

Arrhenius - sodium carbonate

Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF

Lewis acid - AlCl3

What are the conditions for evaporation?

Answers

Answer:

For evaporation you need a warm, preferably humid temperature. The rate of evaporation increases with an increase in temperature. A windy climate is best, as wind helps to remove the evaporated water vapour, and therefore creating a better scope for evaporation to continue. The speed of wind is important for evaporation because the wind pulls in dry air, increasing the rate of evaporation.

Short Answer- Hot and humid temperature, lots of wind speed.

Answer:

Explanation:

1 Evaporation is the phase change of a liquid to a gas. There are three very important requirements for evaporation to take place, 1) available energy, 2) available water, and 3) a vertical moisture gradient. Approximately 600 calories of heat must be added to a gram of water for it to evaporate into the air.

2. Evaporation is the process of a substance in a liquid state changing to a gaseous state due to an increase in temperature and/or pressure. It is a fundamental part of the water cycle and is constantly occurring throughout nature.

3.Water evaporates faster if the temperature is higher, the air is dry, and if there's wind. The same is true outside in the natural environment. Evaporation rates are generally higher in hot, dry and windy climates.

65g of nitric acid are produced in a reaction. 2.5g of platinum are added to the reaction vessel at the start of the reaction to act as a catalyst. How much platinum will there be left in the vessel at the end of the reaction?

Answers

Answer:

2.5 g of platinum

Explanation:

Recall that a catalyst is a specie added to a reaction system to increase the rate of reaction. A catalyst does not participate in the chemical reaction hence it remains unchanged at the end of the chemical reaction. A catalyst merely provides an alternative reaction pathway by lowering the activation energy of the reaction system. Hence a catalysed reaction usually proceeds faster with less energy requirement than the uncatalysed reaction.

Since the catalyst does not participate in the reactions and remains unchanged at the end of the reaction, the mass of platinum will remain the same (2.5g). The mass can only change if a specie participates in the chemical reaction. Hence the answer.

2.5 g of platinum will there be left in the vessel at the end of the reaction

The following information should be considered:

Since the catalyst does not participate in the reactions and remains the same at the end of the reaction, the mass of platinum will remain the same (2.5g). The mass can only change in the case when a specie participates in the chemical reaction.

Determine the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene. Benzene has a boiling point of 80.1°C and a boiling point elevation constant of 2.53°C•kg/mol.

Answers

Answer: The boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is [tex]89.5^0C[/tex]

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point:

[tex]\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m[/tex]

where,

[tex]\Delta T_b[/tex] = change in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for benzene which is a non electrolyte )

[tex]k_b[/tex] = boiling point constant = [tex]2.53^0C/kgmol[/tex]

m = molality = 3.70

[tex]T_{solution}-T_{solvent}=i\times k_b\times m[/tex]

[tex]T_{solution}-80.1^0C=1\times 2.53\times 3.70[/tex]

An aluminum can holds 350 mL of gas at 0 C and 1.0 atm. what is the new volume if the can is heated to 10 C and the pressure inside the can rises to 75 atm?

Answers

Answer:

Final volume of the gas is 4.837mL

Explanation:

Initial volume (V1) = 350mL = 0.35L

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C = (0 + 273.15)k = 273.15k

Initial pressure (P1) = 1.0atm

Final volume (V2) = ?

Final temperature (T2) = 10°C = (10 + 273.15)k = 283.15K

Final pressure (P2) = 75atm

To solve this question, we'll have to use combined gas equation which is the combination of all gas law I.e Charle's laws, Boyle's law, Pressure law etc.

According to combined gas equation,

(P1 × V1) / T1 = (P2 × V2) / T2

Make V2 the subject of formula,

V2 = (P1 × V1 × T2) / (P2 × T1)

V2 = (1.0 × 0.35 × 283.15) / (75 × 273.15)

V2 = 99.1025 / 20,486.25

V2 = 0.004837L

V2 = 4.837mL

The final volume of the gas is 4.837mL

Answer:

4.84mL

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Initial volume (V1) = 350mL

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C

Initial pressure (P1) = 1atm

Final temperature (T2) = 10°C

Final pressure (P2) = 75atm

Final volume (V2) =...?

Step 2:

Conversion of celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature.

This can be achieved by using the formula below:

T(K) = T (°C) + 273

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C + 273 = 273K

Final temperature (T2) = 10°C

Final temperature (T2) = 10°C + 273 = 283K

Step 3:

Determination of the new volume.

The new volume can be obtained by using the general gas equation as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1 x 350/273 = 75 x V2/283

Cross multiply

273 x 75 x V2 = 1 x 350 x 283

Divide both side by 273 x 75

V2 = (1 x 350 x 283) / (273 x 75)

V2 = 4.84mL

Therefore, the new volume is 4.84mL

What is lifting force?

The lifting pressure, lifting force, or virtually lift is the sum of all of the forces on a body that forces it to transport perpendicular to the route of flow.

Drag and Thrust are all “mechanical forces.” A mechanical force is generated through the interplay between an item and a fluid (liquid or gas). Weight is a “field force.” A subject's pressure no longer has to be in physical contact with the item to have an impact on the object.

The lift equation states that carry L is identical to the carry coefficient Cl times the density r times half of the velocity V squared instances the wing region A. For given air conditions, form, and inclination of the item, we have to decide a value for Cl to determine the raise.
