Question
A company pays the electric company at a rate of $0.18 per kilowatt-hour for their power. The factory uses three ventilator
fans to keep the workers safe from dust. Each fan has a 1 horsepower motor. The company runs the fans continuously 24/7.
How much is the company’s energy cost per month (30 days) to operate the ventilation system?

The quartz sample starts off alo insulated container at 90.2 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 24.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 29.6 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. water Calculate the specific heat capacity of quartz according to this experiment.

- The flame in a torch used to cut metal is produced by burning acetylene (C2H2)(26.04 g/mol) in pure oxygen. Assuming the combustion of 1 mole of acetylene releases 1251 kJ of heat, what mass of acetylene is needed to cut through a piece of steel if the process requires 22.5 × 104 kJ of heat? 2 C2H2(g) + 5 O2(g) → 4 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g) ΔH = –2502 kJarrow_forwardIt took 16641664 J to raise the temperature of a sample of water from 12.512.5 °C to 34.534.5 °C.
