The following would lead to the smallest entropy loss in the surroundings: A. An endothermic reaction in a hot environment.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

An endothermic process is process that absorbs energy from its surroundings, usually in the form of heat. Whereas an exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy through light or heat. In an exothermic reaction, the external entropy (or entropy of the surroundings) increases. Whereas in an endothermic reaction, the external entropy (or entropy of the surroundings) decreases.

$Change in entropy = \frac{Change in thermal energy}{Temperature in Kelvin}$

For the loss of entropy, change in the thermal energy must be negative. It is possible only in case of endothermic reaction, since it absorbs heat energy from the surroundings. Whereas the higher the temperature of surrounding, the lower will be change in entropy

The following would lead to the smallest entropy loss in the surroundings: A. An endothermic reaction in a hot environment.

Hope it helps! Thanks

a square boat made from iron has overall dimensions of 2.00 cm x 11.0 cm x 11.0 cm. it has a mass of 213 g. water has a density

Stolb23 [73]

Density of boat = $\frac{MASS}{VOLUME}$

= $\frac{213 g}{(2 cm * 11 cm * 11cm)}$

= 0.88 g / cm³

Since the density of water is greater than the density of the boat ( 1 > 0.88) then that means, the boat will NOT sink.

The modern periodic table is arranged in order of increasing. true or false

qaws [65]

Answer:

Increasing atomic number - True

Explanation:

The modern table is based on Mendeleev’s table, except the modern table arranges the elements by increasing atomic number instead of atomic mass.

The Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and this number is unique for each element. For example, Hydrogen has an atomic number of 1, Calcium has an atomic number of 20.

In the modern periodic table the elements are further arranged into:

- rows, called periods, in order of increasing atomic number. Elements in the same periods have the same number of shells.

- vertical columns, called groups, where the elements have similar properties. Elements in the same group has the same number of valency (outermost number of electrons)

To make 340mL of a 0.4 M solution of Lici, how many mL of a 8 M solution should be used?

ioda

Answer:

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains. Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre.

A 25.0 ml sample of 0.150 m hydrazoic acid is titrated with a 0.150 m naoh solution. what is the ph after 15.0 ml of the sodium

babunello [35]

First, we need to calculate moles of hydrazoic acid NH3:

moles NH3 = molarity * volume

= 0.15 m * 0.025 L

= 0.00375 moles

moles NaOH = molarity * volume

= 0.15 m * 0.015 L

= 0.00225 moles

after that we shoul get the total volume = 0.025L + 0.015L

= 0.04 L

So we can get the concentration of NH3 & NaOH by:

∴[NH3] = moles NH3 / total volume

= 0.00375 moles / 0.04 L

= 0.09375 M

∴[NaOH] = moles NaOH / total volume

= 0.00225 moles / 0.04 L

= 0.05625 M

then, when we have the value of Ka of NH3 so we can get the Pka value from:

Pka = -㏒Ka

= - ㏒ 1.9 x10^-5

= 4.7

finally, by using H-H equation we can get PH:

PH = Pka + ㏒[salt/ basic]

PH = 4.7 +㏒[0.05625/0.09375]

∴ PH = 4.48
