Chapter 11, Problem 16E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical properties of argon, neon and helium are to be explained. Also, their uses have to be mentioned.

Concept Introduction:

Argon, neon and helium are noble gases. These noble gases include helium (Z = 2), neon (Z = 10), argon (Z = 18), krypton (Z= 36), xenon (Z= 54), and radon (Rn= 86). These gases are arranged on the basis of their boiling points and low reactivity.

Under a given set of conditions, a gas that does not undergo any reaction is known as an inert gas.

Inert gases, being stable and less reactive, are used in the arc welding industry, cryogenic systems, bulbs, to create an inert atmosphere for synthetic reactions, etc.

The fire releases 2.80 x 107 Joules of heat energy for each liter of oil burned. The water starts out at 24.5 °C, raising the water's temperature up to 100 °C, and then raises the temperature of the resulting steam up to 325 °C. How many liters of water will be needed to absorb the heat from the fire in this way, for each 1.0 liter of crude oil burned? 4186 J/(kg°C) = heat of water 2020 J/(kg°C) = heat of steam 2,256,000 (i.e. 2.256 x 106) J/kg = latent heat of vaporization for water (at the boiling point of 100 °C).
