Δs is negative for the reaction __________.

1 answer:

6 0

ΔS =S(products) -S(reactants)

Where ΔS is the change of entropy in a reactions

a. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
b. ΔS = (1+1) -(1) = 1
c. ΔS = (1+2) - (1) = 2
d. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
e. ΔS = (1) - (1) = 0

ΔS is negative for reaction a. and d.

Approximately how many moles of chlorine make up 1.79 × 1023 atoms of chlorine?

e-lub [12.9K]

1.2*10^24# atoms of chlorine

Explanation:
Chlorine gas (#Cl_2#) has two atoms of elemental chlorine in a molecule, so:
#1# mol of #Cl_2# have #6*10^23# molecules of #Cl_2#
#1# molecule of #Cl_2# have #2# atoms per molucule
Then #2*6*10^23 = 1.2*10^24# atoms of chlorine in a mol of chlorine gas

A 45-g aluminium spoon(specific heat 0.80 / J/gdegree Celsius) at 24 degree celsius is placed in 180 ml(180 grams) of coffee at

Vlad [161]

Explanation:

a) The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, $heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}$

To calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

Also,

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of aluminium = 45 g

$m_2$ = mass of coffee = 180 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = temperature of aluminium = $24^oC$

$T_2$ = temperature of coffee = $85^oC$

$c_1$ = specific heat of aluminium = $0.80J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of coffee= $4.186 J/g^oC$

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

$45 g\times 0.80J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-24^oC)=-[180 g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-83^oC)]$

$T_{final}=80.30^oC$

80.30 °C is the final temperature.

b) Energy flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.Whenever two bodies with different energies and temperature come in contact. And the resulting temperature of both bodies will less then the body with high temperature and will be more then the body with lower temperature.

So, is our final temperature of both aluminium and coffee that is 80°C less than initial temperature of coffee and more than the initial temperature of the aluminum.
