You can tell that the atom is in the excited state because:
- Electron configuration should follow the 2-8-8-2 rule, meaning that the inner shell should be filled before the next shell can start holding electrons.
- Instead of the atom's electron configuration being in the ground state at 2-8-8-1, electrons from the second shell have jumped to the third.
Not sure if this is correct but i would choose the steel tray.
Answer: D. An increase in entropy
Explanation:
Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an disordered arrangement to an ordered arrangement, the entropy is said to increase and vice versa.
For a reaction to be spontaneous, the enthalpy of the solution must decrease and the entropy must increase.
To overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid solute to dissolve in water, an increase in entropy would make the reaction spontaneous as the system would move to a more disordered state.
Most likely the equation yields a new compound XY. This is a synthesis reaction. <span>Synthesis
reaction is a reaction where two or more substances combine to form a new
compound. It is a reaction which releases energy in the form of heat and
light. Therefore, it is an exothermic reaction.</span>
Answer:
A 1 liter volumetric flask should be used.
Explanation:
First we <u>convert 166.00 g of KI into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:
Molar mass of KI = Molar mass of K + Molar mass of I = 166 g/mol
- 166.00 g ÷ 166 g/mol = 1 mol KI
Then we <u>calculate the required volume</u>, using the <em>definition of molarity</em>:
- Molarity = moles / liters
Liters = moles / molarity
