5. The car you have been driving has a posted fuel consumption of 10.0 L/100 km (city) and 7.1 L/100 km (highway) according to the EnerGuide information. Overall, your actual fuel consumption has averaged 10.5 L/100 km. a) Is this better or worse than the posted fuel consumption? b) Provide three reasons why your actual fuel consumption may be different from the posted consumption. c) List three ways in which you could improve your fuel consumption (other than buying a new carl).

Revie The main reason that distillation is a costly method for purifying water is the high energy required to heat and vaporize water. Part A Using the density, specific heat, and heat of vaporization of water from Appendix B in the textbook, calculate the amount of energy required to vaporize 1.00 gal of water beginning with water at 25 °C. Express your answer using two significant figures. E = 9700 kJ Submit Previous Answers Correct The volume of the water, given in gallons, must first be converted to grams using the density from the appendix. 3780 gal x 4g xIL x 1000 mL 1 gal * 1.057 qt 0.99707 g H2O 1 ml 1.43 x 107 g H20 1L First, the water needs to be heated from 25 °C to 100 °C. The heat associated with this process is calculated using the specific heat of water from the appendix. 9 = mcAT %3D 1.43 x 107 g H,0 x 4.184 J x (100°C – 25°C) x 1 kJ g.°C x (100°C — 25°С) х 1000 J 4.481 x 10° kJ Once the water reaches 100 °C, it must then be vaporized.

A 500 MW power plant burns bituminous coal having a heatingvalue 28,400 kJ/kg. The overall plant efficiency is 36 percent. The plant operates at an annual capacity factor of 65 percent, meaning that the electrical energy generated in a year is 65 percent of the maximum possible. Calculate the annual quantity (mass) of coal burned at this power plant. Also calculate the annual quantities of ash and sulfur in the coal entering the plant.

You pour a cup of hot coffee that has a volume of 61.1 mL and is initially 94.4 °C. You place a stainless steel spoon that has a mass of 41.56 g into the coffee until the coffee and spoon are at thermal equilibrium. You record that the temperature of the spoon increases by 16.09 °C. What is the final temperature °C at thermal equilibrium of the coffee and spoon, assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings? Assume the specific heat and density of coffee to be the same as water. The specific heat of the spoon is 0.466 J/g·°C. Report your answer normallly to one decimal place and do not include units.

Before landing, the brakes and the tires of an airliner have a temperature of 15.0∘C. Upon landing, the 90.7 kg carbon fiber brakes of an airliner heat up to 312∘C. As the brakes start to cool down, the heat is absorbed by the 123 kg rubber tires. What is the specific heat of the tires if the final temperature of both the brakes and the tires at thermal equilibrium is 172∘C? Enter the answer with three significant figures. Use 1.400Jg∘C for the specific heat of carbon fiber.
