Decreased entropy of water is the largest driving force.b. Water repels the hydrophobic molecules. c. Increased entropy of water is the largest driving force. d. Hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other.

Answer:

d. Hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other.

Explanation:

The term “hydrophobic effect” is associated with the spontaneous tendency of macromolecules, such as proteins, to prefer a conformation in an aqueous medium, with hydrophobic groups facing the interior of the mac romolecule, favoring attractive intramolecular interactions, and hydrophilic groups exposed on the surface, for maximize interactions with water molecules in the medium. This is because the hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other, allowing them to turn inward.

giving the incomplete equation 2N2O5 (g) which set of products completes and balances the incomplete equarion
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The complete question is as follows

Given the incomplete equation: 2 N2O5(g) ==>  Which set of products completes and balances the incomplete equation?

A)2 N2(g) + 3 H2(g)

B)2 N2(g) + 2 O2(g)

C)4 NO2(g) + O2(g)

D)4 NO(g) + SO2(g)

The correct option is C) 4NO2(g) + O2(g)

Explanation:

Note that the products should be NO2 and O2 since the reactant is entirely made up of N and O. option A is not correct as hydrogen cannot emerge as a product in this reaction. Matter can never be created or be destroyed bu can only change in a chemical reaction. Option D is not also correct for the same reason.

Option B is not correct since it did not balance the number of atoms of O and N in the reactant side of the equation.

The option C) 4NO2(g) + O2(g) is therefore the right option since it balances both the elements and the number of atoms of the elements present.

If a compound has a molar más of 180g/mol and it’s empirical formula is CH^2O, what is it’s molecular formula?
lesya [120]

C: 12.0107 g/mol ≅ 12.00 g/mol

H: 1.00784 g/mol ≅ 1.008 g/mol

O: 15.999 g/mol ≅ 16.00 g/mol

n(molar mass of CH2O)= 180

n.30=180

n=6

molecular formula: c6h12o6 glucose

ratelena [41]

Answer:

a) galvanic cell

b)electrolytic cell

c) i) K=6.27x10'34

ΔG°=198790 J

ii) K=3.58x10'-34

ΔG°= 191070 J

d) E°=0.278 v

ΔG°= -26827 J

Explanation:

a) There are two kinds of an electrochemical cell, the first is called "galvanic cells", and the second "electrolytic cell".

The fuel cells are capable of produce electric energy through chemical reactions. These reactions are often spontaneous. So, the galvanic cell has a negative value for Gibbs free energy.

b) The electrolytic cell increases the value of Gibbs energy, to positive values, due to the reactions are not spontaneous.

c) i) look image attached

ii) k = look image attached

ΔG° = -nFE° = - 6 X 95500 J/vmole x (-0.33 v)

ΔG° =-191070

d) E°= 0.0592 v/n x lg K

E°= 0.0592V / 1 X log 5.0X10'4

E°= 0.278 v

ΔG° = -nFE° = -1 x 96500 J/ vmole x 0.278v

ΔG° = -26827 J
