Answer:

When ΔS > ΔH/ T, then the reaction will proceed forward

Explanation:

  • The entity that determines the whether a reaction will occur on its own in the forward direction (Spontaneity or Feasibility) is Gibb's free energy.
  • Gibb's free energy is the energy available to do work. It is denoted as 'G'. It cannot be easily measured. The change (ΔG) can only be measured.  ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

when ΔG is positive, The reaction is not spontaneous (reaction will not occur on its own)

When ΔG is negative, The reaction is spontaneous (reaction will occur on its own)

When ΔG is zero, the reaction is in equilibrium

Option A and E are not correct. ΔH (Enthalpy) cannot determine spontaneity

Option C and D cannot alone determine spontaneity of reaction

For reaction to be spontaneous, TΔS > ΔH

Therefore, ΔS > ΔH/T

CORO<br> Name three ways that scientists can ensure their results<br> are reliable
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Reliability. When a scientist repeats an experiment with a different group of people or a different batch of the same chemicals and gets very similar results then those results are said to be reliable. Reliability is measured by a percentage – if you get exactly the same results every time then they are 100% reliable.

Explanation:

Sorry, I only got one way.

Which atom, selenium (Se) or Arsenic (As), has the higher electron affinity and why?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

5. Selenium, because it does not have a stable, half-filled p subshell and adding an electron does not decrease its stability.

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom accepts electron to form the corresponding anion.

Selenium:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^4

Arsenic:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^3

The 4p orbital in case of arsenic is half filled which makes the element having more stability as compared to selenium.

Thus, selenium has higher electron affinity because adding electron does not decrease the stability as in case of arsenic.

In a 0.01 M solution of 1,4-butanedicarboxylic acid, HOOCCH2CH2COOH (Ka1 = 2.9 x 10-5,
azamat

Answer:

The correct answer is B) HOOCCH2CH2COOH(aq)

Explanation:

Both Ka1 and Ka2 are low, so the acid will dissociate only slightly into HOOCCH2CH2COO- ions and even more slightly into -OOCCH2CH2COO- ions. The concentration of hydronium ions (H₃O⁺) will be consequently low. The species that will be in the highest concentration will be HOOCCH2CH2COOH (the weak acid not dissociated).

Without doing any calculations, list the elements in c2h4o2 in order of decreasing mass percent composition.
tia_tia [17]
In <span>c2h4o2 there are
2 atoms of carbon
4 atoms of hydrogen
2 atoms of oxygen

Hydrogen atomic masses is 1 which was very low so 4 of them would still be the lowest mass percent. Then we have carbon and oxygen which both have 2 atoms. Oxygen atomic mass is more than carbon atomic mass, so oxygen should contribute more mass percent composition. The sequence from higher mass percent composition should be:
1. Oxygen
2. Carbon
3. Hydrogen</span>
