Explain why the standard enthalpy of formation () for Cl2 (g) is zero, but its standard entropy is larger than zero.

1 answer:

7 0

The standard enthalpy of formation for chlorine is zero but the standard entropy is larger than 0 because it is the elemental state of chlorine.

The standard enthalpy of formation for chlorine is zero because cl2 is the elemental state of chlorine and it does not require any energy for the formation of the standard state of chlorine.

The entropy of any system cannot be negative. It can only be positive or zero.

The entropy of a system will become zero only at a absolute zero temperature.

That's why the entropy of chlorine in elemental state is more than zero because absolutely zero temperature can't be obtained.

You work for a cutlery manufacturer who wants to electrolytically precipitate 0.500 g of silver onto each piece of a batch of 25

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

373.1 mL of AgCN (aq) must be poured into your electrolysis vat to ensure you have sufficient Ag to plate all of the forks.

Explanation:

Mass of silver to be precipitated on ecah spoon = 0.500 g

Number of silver spoons = 250

Total mass of silver = 250 × 0.500 g = 125 g

$Moles (n)=Molarity(M)\times Volume (L)$

Moles of AgCN = n = $\frac{125 g}{134 g/mol}=0.9328 mol$

Volume of AgCN solution =V

Molarity of the AgCN = 2.50 M

$V=\frac{0.9328 mol}{2.50 M}=0.3731 L=373.1 mL$

(1 L = 1000 mL)

373.1 mL of AgCN (aq) must be poured into your electrolysis vat to ensure you have sufficient Ag to plate all of the forks.

What does gene therapy use and why?

emmainna [20.7K]

Gene therapy is designed to introduce genetic material into cells to compensate for abnormal genes or to make a beneficial protein. If a mutated gene causes a necessary protein to be faulty or missing, gene therapy may be able to introduce a normal copy of the gene to restore the function of the protein.
