What describes the change in Gibbs free energy (∆G) of a spontaneous reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
alexandr1967 [171]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gibbs Free energy is defined as amount of useful work that can be done in the system. It is equal to the enthalpy of the reaction minus the product of entropy of the reaction and absolute temperature.

Mathematically,

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Where,

\Delta G = Gibbs free energy

\Delta H = Enthalpy of the reaction

\Delta S = Entropy of the reaction

T = Absolute temperature

Sign Convention for Gibbs Free energy:

If \Delta G, it is considered as a Spontaneous reaction.

If \Delta G>0, it is considered as a Non-Spontaneous reaction.

If \Delta G=0, reaction is in equilibrium.

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

What volume of 0.205 m k3po4 solution is necessary to completely react with 154 ml of 0.0110 m nicl2? 1.65 l?
sasho [114]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is 
2K₃PO₄   + 3NiCl₂  ---> 6KCl + Ni₃(PO₄)₂
stoichiometry of K₃PO₄  to NiCl₂ is 2:3
the number of NiCl₂ moles reacted - 0.0110 mol/L x 0.154 L = 1.69 x 10⁻³ mol
if 3 mol of NiCl₂ reacts with - 2 mol of K₃PO₄ 
then 1.69 x 10⁻³ mol of NiCl₂ reacts with - 2/3 x 1.69 x 10⁻³  = 1.13 x 10⁻³ mol of K₃PO₄
molarity of K₃PO₄ solution given - 0.205 M
there are 0.205 mol in 1 L
therefore 1.13 x 10⁻³ mol are in - 1.13 x 10⁻³ mol / 0.205 mol/L = 5.51 mL
volume of K₃PO₄ required - 5.51 mL

4. Identify each substance in the following word equation as a reactant or a product
dolphi86 [110]

Explanation:

4.                 limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide

The reactants in this expression above is limestone

The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime

Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.

The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.

Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.

5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.

An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.

6.  Sodium salicylate is made from carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide.

The reactants are:

                  Carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide

The product is:

         Sodium salicylate

What fuel source is Jan using if she exercises at 85% of her maximum aerobic capacity?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Carbohydrates

Explanation:

Increased exercise intensity means the overall need for energy increases. As we increase exercise intensity we increase our glucose uptake and oxidation which far exceeds uptake, indicating that muscle stores of glycogen are being used. At moderate intensities (65%) there is an increased need for muscle glycogen and muscle triglycerides which is fat. At higher levels of intensities (85%) there is an even greater need for energy, and this is met almost solely by an increased uptake of glucose from the blood and from muscle glycogen.

In the case of fats as an energy fuel source at high intensities, increasing levels of intensity increases fat oxidation but once we get into higher levels of intensity, we return to levels of fat oxidation similar to very low intensities.

What is the correct iupac name of CH3-CH2-CH2CHO ?
kow [346]

the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.

<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>

It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.

Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.

Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.

Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'

The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.
