The correct option is A.
A chemical reaction is said to have reached an equilibrium stage if the rate of reaction of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of reaction of the reverse reaction. Two way arrows are usually used to depict equilibrium reactions. These arrows indicate that the chemical reaction can move both ways. At the equilibrium point the concentrations of both the reactants and the products are equal.
Answer:
c.
Explanation:
A serial dilution is a dilution that is made fractionated. The stock solution is diluted, then this now solution is diluted, and then successively. The final dilution is the multiplication of the steps dilutions.
The representation of the dilution is v/v (volume per volume) indicates how much of the stock solution is in the total volume of the solution. So 1/5 indicates 1 mL to 5 mL of the solution. If the final volume must be 1 mL, then the stock solution must be 0.2 mL (0.2/1 = 1/5), and the volume of the solvent is 1 mL - 0.2 = 0.8 mL.
The second solution is done with a dilution of 1/10 or 1 mL of the first solution in 10 mL of the total solution. Because the solution has 1 mL, then the volume of the first solution must be 0.1 mL (0.1/1 = 1/10), and the volume of the solvent that must be added is 1 mL - 0.1 mL = 0.9 mL.
Answer:
In solving this question it is important to note that entropy is referred to as the degree of randomness in a compound or system.
Entropy is highest in gas and lowest in solids
The order is given as:
Gas > Liquid > Solid
Another criteria is the more the elements in a compound, the more the entropy.
For example: KO3 has more entropy than KO2 due to the presence of more elements.
The last criteria is calculating their masses , the one with a greater mass has the higher entropy.
The option with the least entropy will be a solid. Al(s) and NaF(s) are both solids. NaF(s) has more elements in a compound which makes it have a higher entropy than Al(s). This means NaF(s) > Al(s).
The next to consider are the gaseous compounds which are HF(g) , SiF4(g) and SiH4(g). The least entropy will be HF(g) . This is because it has the least number of elements of the 3 compounds.
SiF4(g) and SiH4(g) have equal number of elements in a compound but the one with the highest mass is SiF4(g) because fluorine has a higher mass when compared to hydrogen. This means the compound with the highest entropy is SiF4(g).
The order of increasing entropy is given below:
Al(s) < NaF(s) < HF(g) < SiH4(g) < SiF4(g)
