What is the quantity of heat in kilojoules required to raise the temperature of 1.2 kg of the substance from3°C to 110 °C at a pressure of 1.0 atm? Please keep three significant figures. Useful information: Melting point = 293 K heat of fusion = 3.90 x 104 J/kg. boiling point is 423 K heat of vaporization 7.80 x 104 J/kg (at a pressure of 1.0 atm).

(Round your answer to one decimal place.)_______ minarrow_forwardWe know from Newton's Law of Cooling that the rate at which an object warms up is proportional to the difference between the ambient temperature of the room and the temperature of the object. The differential equation corresponding to this situation is given by y' = k(M – y) where k is a positive constant. The solution to this equation is given by y = M + (yo – M)e-kt , where yo is the initial temperature of the object. Suppose your Thanksgiving turkey is kept at a temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit until it is put into a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven. It takes 2 hours for the turkey to warm up to a safe eating temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Find the values of yo, M, and k, for this situation, rounding your answers to 3 decimal places. Yo= M = k= Regardless of your answers above, suppose the k value in this situation is k = 0.3. Find the initial rate of increase of the turkey's temperature as soon as it is placed in the oven.
