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

Chemistry

Galina-37 [17]1 year ago
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.

6 How many moles are in a 321 g sample of magnesium?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

13.4mol of Mg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of magnesium = 321g

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

The number of moles of a substance is given as;

  Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

 Molar mass of Mg = 24g/mol

 Insert the parameters and solve;

        Number of moles  = \frac{321}{24}   = 13.4mol of Mg
