A compression wave is transmitted by motion or particles. Sound is a compression wave that travels through gases, liquids and solids by moving atoms/molecules/particles which in turn bump into neighbouring atoms/molecules/particles.

In a vacuum there are no atoms, molecules or particles present to transmit the wave.

The dissolution of ammonium nitrate occurs spontaneously in water at 25°C. As NH4NO, dissolves, the temperature of the water dec
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

ΔG <0 , ΔH > 0 , ΔS > 0 .

Explanation:

From the data given in question , the reaction is a spontaneous process , hence , the value of change in gibbs free energy would be negative , ΔG <0

And , on dissolution process , the temperature of the water decreases , i.e. , it is an endothermic process , i.e. , the change in enthalphy value is positive , ΔH > 0

And , during the process of dissolution , the ammonia salt break does to ions , i.e. , the randomness increases , hence the ΔS > 0
