Assume the weight of an average adult is 70. kg, and that 420. kJ of heat are evolved per mole of oxygen consumed as a result of

the oxidation of foodstuffs, knowing that the number of moles of O2 inhaled per minutes are 0.02 mol/min. Suppose an adult body were encased in a thermally insulating barrier. If as a result of this barrier all the heat evolved by metabolism of foodstuffs were retained by the body, what would the temperature difference of the body reach after 3 hours

The temperature difference after 3 hours is 5.16 K. Given that the moles of O₂ inhaled rate at 0.02 mole/min, which converts to 1.2 mole/hour, we know the average heat released during metabolism is 7.2 kJ/h·kg. Therefore, the amount of heat generated within 3 hours will be 7.2 kJ/h·kg multiplied by 3 hours, giving a result of 21.6 kJ/kg, or 21.6 x 10³ J/kg. Applying the formula Qp = Cp x ΔT, and taking the body's heat capacity to be 4.18 J/g·K, we find ΔT = 5.16 K.

castortr0y [2743]

Answer:

The correct options include choice 2, 3, and 6.

Explanation:

Density is identified as the mass of a substance per unit volume occupied by that substance.

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

The density remains constant for a given substance, regardless of variations in mass and volume hence it is considered an intensive property.

2. 20.2 g of silver in 21.6 mL of water and 12.0 g of silver also in 21.6 mL of water.

3. 15.2 g of copper in 21.6 mL of water and 50.0 g of copper in 23.4 mL of water.

6. 11.2 g of gold in 21.6 mL of water and 14.9 g of gold in 23.4 mL of water.

The same metals in both instances will yield consistent densities due to the fixed density of the metal.

If you pump air into cycle tyre a slight warming effect is noticed at valve stem why
castortr0y [2743]
The slight warm feeling noticed at the valve stem when air is pumped into the tire is likely due to the kinetic energy generated by the friction from the pump and the resultant increase in gas pressure within the tire.

The boiling point of another member of this homologous series was found to be 309 KK. What is the likely molecular formula for t
KiRa [2726]

Answer: Pentane C5H12

Explanation:

The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which a liquid's vapor pressure matches the external pressure, causing the liquid to turn into vapor.

This compound is likely Pentane, represented as C5H12, since its boiling point falls between that of Butane, with the formula C4H10, and Hexane, with the formula C6H14.

1. Which two groups of elements in the periodic table are the most reactive?(1 point) A) alkali metals and halogens B) alkaline
alisha [2718]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Alkali metals and halogens both need to achieve a stable outer electron shell, requiring alkali metals to lose one electron and halogens to gain one.

2) They share an identical count of outer shell electrons.

3) Typically, they have elevated melting points.

4) They exhibit low reactivity or none at all.

5) They belong to group 7.
