Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.

For example, air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.

Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.

<u>Yes, it is very possible, if work is done, transferring heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir can take place</u>. This implies the correct answer is B.

A good example, in this case, is an air conditioner. Air conditional entails a cyclist process in which heat is transferred from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir using electricity. Also, in the process of heat transfer, the air conditioner generates more heat.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

The transfer of heat in this case is via thermal conduction. It involves the transfer of heat by collisions of particles microscopically. It also involves electrons movement in a body.

The collided particles such as atoms, electrons, and molecules transfer microscopic kinetic and potential energy that is disorganized.

However, the disorganized potential energy and microscopic kinetic are together known as internal energy.

In other words, heat transfer through conduction involves direct contact between molecules and atoms.

The process of heat transfer via conduction simply depends on the four major factors:

The temperature gradient
The cross-sections of the materials involved in the process
The path length of the material involved
The conductive properties of the materials involved
Therefore, it is very possible, if work is done to transfer heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir

How many moles of helium are needed to fill a balloon to a volume of 5.3 L at 22 ℃ and 632 mmHg?

son4ous [18]

Answer:

0.18 moles

Explanation:

Applying,

PV = nRT................... Equation 1

Where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = molar gas constant, T = temperature.

make n the subject of the equation

n = PV/RT............... Equation 2

Given: V = 5.3 L, T = 22 °C = (22+272) K = 295 K, P = 632 mmHg = (0.00131579×632) = 0.8316 atm, R = 0.083 L.atm/K.mol

Substitute these values into equation 2

n = (0.8316×5.3)/(0.083×295)

n = 0.18 moles

Sulfuryl dichloride is formed when sulfur dioxide reacts with chlorine.

zubka84 [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of $\Delta G^o$ of the reaction is 28.38 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical reaction:

$SO_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow SO_2Cl_2(g)$

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(reactant)}]$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2Cl_2(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(Cl_2(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2Cl_2(g))}=-364kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-296.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(Cl_2(g))}=0kJ/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-364))]-[(1\times (-296.8))+(1\times 0)]=-67.2kJ/mol=-67200J/mol$

The equation used to calculate entropy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta S^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta S^o_f_{(reactant)}]$

The equation for the entropy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta S^o_{(SO_2Cl_2(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta S^o_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta S^o_{(Cl_2(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta S^o_{(SO_2Cl_2(g))}=311.9J/Kmol\\\Delta S^o_{(SO_2(g))}=248.2J/Kmol\\\Delta S^o_{(Cl_2(g))}=223.0J/Kmol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=[(1\times 311.9)]-[(1\times 248.2)+(1\times 223.0)]=-159.3J/Kmol$

To calculate the standard Gibbs's free energy of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\Delta H^o_{rxn}-T\Delta S^o_{rxn}$

where,

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}$ = standard enthalpy change of the reaction =-67200 J/mol

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}$ = standard entropy change of the reaction =-159.3 J/Kmol

Temperature of the reaction = 600 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=-67200-(600\times (-159.3))\\\\\Delta G^o_{rxn}=28380J/mol=28.38kJ/mol$

Hence, the value of $\Delta G^o$ of the reaction is 28.38 kJ/mol
