The refrigerant R-22 in a system component has a pressure of 70 psig and a temperature of 50F. Is it saturated, superheated, or subcooled?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

If the input in BTUs per hour if the heating capacity of the gas is 950 BTUs per cubic foot?

Answer to Question 1

R-22 at 70 psig is saturated at just over 40F. Since 50F is greater than 40F, this refrigerant is superheated.

Answer to Question 2

60 cubic feet x 950 BTU/cubic foot = 57,000 BTUs per hour

Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
