Hmm, so I'm SoL when it comes to predicting the effectiveness of my acetone heat rejector? I love the 'build it and hope for the best' method of engineering. It's my favorite.
Does the amount of one solute in a solution effect the maximum quantity of another solute that can be dissolved ino that solution, or the rate of dissolution?
To provide context: I'm thinking of making an acetone evaporator for thermal management purposes. I'm wondering if the humidity of the...
Mpge (properly written MPGe)
Is miles per gallon electrical.
Which means the amount of energy contained in 1 gallon of gasoline, in electrical form, approx 33.7 kWh.
With coal its no contest, the petrol car is better. It honestly can't even compare
Coal is something like C137H97O9NS
Meanwhile, gasoline is primarily hexane, heptane, and octane. So C6-8Hlike 16 or something
And actually, hydrogen oxidation is more exothermic than carbon oxidation, so petrol...
It depends on which fossil fuel is used and the overall mixture, and the specific plant.
Gas cars generally get get around 25 mpg
However, a tesla gets ~95 mpge (miles per gallon of gasoline equivalent)
Car engines also have a thermal efficiency of roughly 25%, meaning 25% of the energy...
I can't believe I missed something that should've been so obvious
C2H6O2 + 4(Na) → C2H4 + 2(Na2O) + H2
Perhaps I should do this only with professional oversight, because I very well could've exploded if I had done this reaction as I had planned.
Yeah, maybe I should take this to school and get help from my former Chem teacher to do this, I'm fairly certain I could do it, but since you're both warning me I should probably do this with a professional.
Metallic sodium is fairly easy to acquire
I've done plenty of chemistry before, I'm adept at certain aspects of it, I know lab protocol, the reason I am asking is because you made a fairly declarative statement that the reaction would not go as I had planned.
I couldn't find a place to buy it.
What will I get then? Is there some other part of ethylene glycol that would react with the Na sooner than the hydroxyl group?
I'm trying to get a hold of Ethylene, but because of it's properties it's not sold commercially, so I'm trying to find a way to synthesize it.
The closest thing I can find to synthesize it is Ethylene glycol
I'm pretty sure I could add Na as so
C2H6O2 + 2Na → 2(CH2) + 2(NaOH)
The problem is then...
You two are right, I messed up my wording.
It is indeed, the Potential energy that would be gained by moving from r to (r+100,000)
or the Kinetic energy gained (Potential energy lost) by falling in the opposite direction
