Imagine a chemist is in the lab and trying to make some chemical reactions happen. In one reaction she reacts chemicals in an exothermic reaction and there is an increase in entropy. A second chemical reaction she is trying to run is endothermic and there is a decrease in entropy. Which of the two reactions is more likely to occur and why?
Answer:
I need the columns to do the question
Explanation:
Molar mass CH4 = 16.0 g/mol
* number of moles:
932.3 / 16 => 58.26875 moles
T = 136.2 K
V = 0.560 L
P = ?
R = 0.082
Use the clapeyron equation:
P x V = n x R x T
P x 0.560 = 58.26875 x 0.082 x 136.2
P x 0.560 = 650.76
P = 650.76 / 0.560
P = 1162.07 atm
<span>The copper would go under oxidation since it will be losing two electrons. Copper starts out with an oxidation number of zero, but in order to balance the compound of CuO with the Oxygen having an oxidation number of -2, a positive 2 is required</span>
