A certain reaction is spontaneous at temperatures below 400. K but is not spontaneous at temperatures above 400. K. If ΔH° for t

he reaction is -20. kJ mol-1 and it is assumed that ΔH° and ΔS° do not change appreciably with temperature, then the value of ΔS° for the reaction is

Answer:

ΔS = 0.05 kJ /mol or 50 J /mol

Explanation:

As given that the reaction is spontaneous below 400 K and non spontaneous above 400K. Thus the reaction is at equilibrium at 400 K temperature.

At equilibrium the change in free energy ΔG is zero.

The relation between free energy change, enthalpy change, entropy change and temperature is

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Where

ΔH = enthalpy change

T = temperature

ΔS = entropy change

at equilibrium (400 K)

ΔG = 0 = (-20) + 400XΔS

ΔS = 0.05 kJ /mol or 50 J /mol

What must happen for heat to be transferred by convection?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer: The heat transfer by convection requires a solid-fluid interface, a temperature difference between the solid surface and the surrounding fluid and a motion of the fluid. The process of heat transfer by convection would occur when there is a movement of macro-particles of the fluid in space from a region of higher temperature to lower temperature.

Which statement best describes the way a catalyst works?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer: E. It decreases the value of Eact.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and more molecules convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

When liquid gold becomes a solid, its particles get closer together. Which best describes what happened to the gold?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The rearrangement of particles in a physical change.

Explanation:

When things are liquid the particles tend to be spread out because they aren't tightly compacted as they would be with a solid. So when liquid gold is changing from a liquid to a solid the properties are changing and the particles in the gold are getting closer together.
