Body Temperature

Here is one of the major reactions in the hardening of cement.

2 Ca3SiO5 + 7 H2O ---> 3 CaO.2SiO2.4H2O + 3 Ca(OH)2 + 173.6kJ

Notice the 173.6 kJ? That is the major source of the heat from the exothermic reaction.

Notice the Ca(OH)2? That is calcium hydroxide - which is why it is a good idea to wear gloves when working with cement. It is also the reason that if you don't wear gloves your fingers feel like someone sanded them with 60 grit sandpaper.
What the fuck dude . With the 5+7--------->3 Chimpkin I am freaking . I had to google what <3 means after you sent that . Any body hear that Matalica song about Concrete Angels . Now that freaked Me . Good song ! The voices in my head are liking the chemical bonding occurring. Fuck oh dear , What next . You know what that tells me in the alternate universe . Me and Mary are going to the top of the Mountain . So strange so strange

Sorry every body for strolling . Tra La La

What are you talking about? Step away from the bong sir.....:shrug:
 
Seems high considering a hair dryer puts out similar.

Ever competed in a triathalon? It feels like a lot more heat than that when you're going all out!

Then again maybe this explains "Spontaneous Human Combustion". Considering all the fat...I dont know, i guess i should believe it though.

Well, I've never gone up in smoke - and most purported cases of human combustion occur when people are just sitting there (i.e. low heat output.)
 
As far as i know my body stays around 98 degrees in 20 degree weather. Where is the heat source?

You have a coat, pants, shirt, underpants, and possibly a hat on when you stay warm. Stay outside naked for an hour when its 20 degrees out see how you do.

I would do well until my body could not keep up with the low temperature. How about naked at 60 degrees? Would the body stay at 98? If so why?
 
Someone recently combusted in Ireland.
So f*cking what?
It doesn't support your inane contention that
Then again maybe this explains "Spontaneous Human Combustion".
as Billvon pointed out.
The guy was 76 and in his own home: hardly a candidate for being a heavy exerciser. :rolleyes:

Are you really this stupid?
Heat moves from a higher temperature location to a lower one, until it's equalised.
You would still lose heat, but at a slower rate than if you were at 20 degrees.

The heat produced by the chemical reactions in your body keep you warm. The act of shivering is an attempt by your body to work your muscles to produce more of that heat. By moving your muscles you burn fuel which gives off heat as a waste product.
 
I would put the optimal temp. around 78 but i am open to other views.
So you're not bothered about
A) answering my last question
B) explaining why I'm "wrong" (and I'm not)
C) your original question?
