What else can I help you with?
Which liquid freezes faster water or Oil?
Water. Oils become more viscous at lower temperatures but do not solidify until far below zero.
What are energy sources for a desalination plant?
Anything which will heat the water, so could be oil, natural gas, nuclear, or other means of getting heat.
What is oil filled self cooled type transformer?
Transformers like other electrical equipment, produce heat. The heat has to be removed to keep the temperatures below maximum levels. There are various methods to do this. Using water is a efficient method; but cannot be done directly as water can be conductive. In the 'Oil immersed water cooled method', the entire transofmer is immersed in a tank filled with insulating mineral oil. Heat from the windings and core is transfered to the insulating oil and therefore heats up the oil. Water pipes run along the tank, in contact with the oil. Heat from the oil is now transfered to the water. This is a very efficient method of cooling especially when the voltages involved are high.
Can you burn raw crude to heat water to generate steam for electricity?
Yes, raw crude oil can be burned to heat water and generate steam for electricity. The combustion of crude oil produces heat, which can be used to convert water into steam, driving turbines connected to generators. However, burning raw crude directly is less common due to impurities and environmental concerns; it is typically refined into more suitable fuels for efficient and cleaner combustion.
How many kg of oil are needed to turn 150 kg of water at 100C into steam the burning of 1 pound of oil provides 5.74x10raised to the 6th power calories of heat?
Latent heat of vapourisation of Water is 2257 KJ/Kg = 2257*0.24 kcal/Kg = 541.68 kcal/kg Since the temp of water is 100 deg C, and the boiling point is 100 it is sufficient if we provide the latent heat of vapourisation. The total amount of heat required is =150 *541.68 = 81252 kcal… Energy we get by burning 1 pound of oil = 5.74 * 10^6 cals =5740 kcals Total quantity of oil required =81252/5740 = 14.155 pounds = 6.4 kgs
Does oil cook food faster than water?
Yes, oil cooks food faster than water because oil has a higher heat capacity and can reach higher temperatures than water. This allows for faster heat transfer and more efficient cooking.
Why does oil heat faster than water?
Oil has a lower specific heat capacity than water, meaning it requires less energy to heat up. Additionally, oil is less dense than water, allowing it to circulate more easily and absorb heat more efficiently. These factors combined make oil heat up faster than water.
Why does water with oil boil faster than plain water?
Water with oil boils faster than plain water because the presence of oil reduces the surface tension of water, allowing bubbles to form more easily. These bubbles help the water heat more quickly and reach its boiling point faster.
Does water heat faster than motor oil?
Motor oil heats faster than water, as water has one of the highest specific heat capacities. (It takes more energy to increase the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1 °C than to increase the temperature of 1 kg of oil by 1°C)
If you put a hot metal block in oil and in water which liquid heats faster?
The metal block will heat faster in oil because oil has a lower specific heat capacity than water. This means it requires less energy to raise the temperature of the oil compared to water.
Will a marble sink faster in oil or water?
A marble will sink faster in water than in oil because water has a higher density than oil. The higher the density of the liquid, the faster an object will sink in it.
Does oil and water evaporate faster than fresh water?
Fresh water is evaporated faster.
Does water with oil evaporate faster than syrup and water?
No, water with syrup evaporate faster.
What liquid will freeze the fastest oil or water why?
Water will freeze faster than oil.
Why is frying faster than boiling?
Because oil cooks up (Boils faster) faster because of the chemicals in it and the density it provides. water takes a free minutw because there is nothing in water water is just water but oil has different ingrediants which help boil it faster
Does water or motor oil flow faster?
Water is faster by it's lower viscosity, though oil viscosity is more temperature dependent than that of water.
Why water evaporate faster than oil?
because water is almost every and oil is made from plants
