Bingel [31]1 year ago
3 0

Correct option:

Entropy is used to calculate information gain.

What is entropy?

  • Entropy is the measure of data's uncertainty or randomness; the greater the randomness, the higher the entropy. Entropy is used by information gain to make choices. Information will increase if the entropy decreases.
  • Decision trees and random forests leverage information gained to determine the appropriate split. Therefore, the split will be better and the entropy will lower the more information gained.
  • Information gain is calculated by comparing the entropy of a dataset before and after a split.
  • Entropy is a way to quantify data uncertainty. The goal is to maximize information gain while minimizing entropy. The method prioritizes the feature with the most information, which is utilized to train the model.
  • Entropy is actually used when you use information gain.

What is the transfer of electrons in Al + Cl = AlCl3
otez555 [7]

Answer:

3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.

Explanation

This is a redox reaction.

  • Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
  • Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
  • An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
  • [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)

A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.

Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl

[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹

[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.

and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]

This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.

Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃

Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)

Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.

Which of the following does not apply to water molecules?
serg [7]

Answer:

It is the last one.

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar, they have cohesive properties, and water is less dense when it is solid than when it is a liquid, that is why ice floats in liquid water. However, water is a very good solvent, it can dissolve many solids, including sugar, salt, and other hydrophilic substances.

Where does most of our heat come from?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

the cells in your body

Explanation:

Most people that i have asked this similar question to, have said the sun. It's not the sun because the sun disappears at night. Your body produces heat because your cells are burning up energy.
