Scientist who have a chemical element named after them

Chemistry

<span>There are only four elements that were named after actual scientists.
   Curium [Cm] is named after Marie and Pierre Curie. The Curies worked extensively on radioactive elements so another scientist appropriately named this radioactive element after them.
   Einsteinium [Es] is named after the famed physicist Albert Einstein.
   Lawrencium [Lr or Lw] is named after Ernest Lawrence, who invented a machine to detect radioactivity. Lawrencium is a radioactive element.     Mendelevium [Md] is named after Dimitri Mendeleef who created the modern day periodic table.</span>

What is special about the kelvin temperature scale
nalin [4]
Kelvin is a temperature scale designed so that zero degrees K is defined as absolute zero (at absolute zero, a hypothetical temperature, all molecular movement stops - all actual temperatures are above absolute zero) and the size of one unit is the same as the size of one degree Celsius.

The vapor pressure of pure water at 250C is 23.77 torr. What is the vapor pressure of water above a solution that is 1.500 m glu
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Vapor pressure of water = 23.14torr

Explanation:

When you made a solution, vapor pressure decreases following Raoult's law:

P_{solution} = X_{solvent} P_{solvent}

<em>Where P is vapor pressure and X mole fraction</em>

As vapor pressure of water is 23.77torr we must find the mole fraction of water knowing the solution is 1.500m glucose (That is 1.500 moles of glucose per kg of water = 1000g of water).

1000g of H₂O are, in moles (Molar mass: 18.02g/mol):

1000g H₂O ₓ (1mole / 18.02g) = 55.5 moles of H₂O.

As we know now the solution contains 55.5 moles of water and 1.5 moles of glucose. Thus, mole fraction of water (Solvent) is:

X_{H_2O} = \frac{55.5molesH_2O}{55.5molesH_2O + 1.5 molesGlucose} = 0.9737

Replacing in Raoult's law, pressure of water above the solution is:

P_{solution} = X_{solvent} P_{solvent}

P_{solution} = 0.9737*23.77torr

<h3>Vapor pressure of water = 23.14torr</h3>

What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?The reaction isa. spontaneous at all temperatures.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1. d. The reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

2. c. The reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures.

Explanation:

The spontaneity of a reaction is associated with the Gibbs free energy (ΔG). When ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous. When ΔG > 0, the reaction is non-spontaneous. ΔG is related to the enthalpy (ΔH) and the entropy (ΔS) through the following expression:

ΔG = ΔH - T. ΔS  [1]

where,

T is the absolute temperature (T is always positive)

<em>1. What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>

If the reaction is endothermic, ΔH > 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG is always positive. The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction at any temperature. This means that the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

<em>2. What can be said about an Exothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?</em>

If the reaction is exothermic, ΔH < 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG will be negative when |ΔH| > |T.ΔS|, that is, at low temperatures.
