The energy content of a certain food is to be determined in a bomb calorimeter that contains 3 kg of water by burning a 2-g sample of it in the presence of 100 g of air in the reaction chamber. if the water temperature rises by 3.2°c when equilibrium is established, determine the energy content of the food, in kj/kg, by neglecting the thermal energy stored in the reaction chamber and the energy supplied by the mixer. by calculating the rough estimate of the error involved in neglecting the thermal energy stored in the reaction chamber, do you think it is reasonable to disregard the change in the sensible energy content of the reaction chamber in the analysis? the specific heat of water at room temperature is c = 4.18 kj/kg·°c. the constant-volume specific heat of air at room temperature is cv = 0.718 kj/kg·°c.

Which sentences describe point source pollution? in this type of pollution, the source of the pollution is single and easily identifiable. when runoff water from the melting of snow mixes with debris, it creates pollution. the runoff water, mixed with pollutants, reaches large areas with disastrous effects. alternatively, when a wastewater treatment plant releases harmful chemicals into a stream, the chemicals pollute the stream water because they are not treated for safety.
