Why is atomic number the better way to organize the elements of the periodic table and not organizing by atomic mass?

A) The atomic mass can vary based on the number of neutrons the atoms of the same element have, so the atomic mass may not be in order.  Also, the atomic number is unique to each element.

Hope this helped!

"What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0"
Artyom0805 [142]

Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)

Answer:

-3670.33 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.

Mathematically,  change of Entropy can be expressed as,

ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2

Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.

Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg

Substitute into equation

ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)

ΔH = - 1002000 J.

But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = -1002000/273

ΔS = -3670.33 J/K

Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C

Determine the chemical formulas for the two compounds below. (Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen).
tester [92]
Remember that any intersection of lines is a C, and that the number of hydrogens attached are the necessary to complet the 4 bonds.

1) CH3 - CH (OH) - CH (CH3) -CH3

2) CH3 - O - CH(CH3)-CH2 - CH3

I have used the parenthesis to indicate that the radical inside is in other branch, bonded by a single line -

Llana [10]

Answer:

See the answer and explanation below , please.

Explanation:

A conjugate base is defined as that formed after an acid donates its proton.

For each article, a continuation of the conjugate bases (highlighted in bold), for dissociation in water:

a) HF + H20 --> F- + H30+      

b) H20+ H20 --> OH-  + H30+

C)H2PO3-  + H20--> HPO3 2-   + H30+

d) HSO4- + H20 -->  SO4 2- + H30+

E) HCL02 + H20 --> CLO02 -   + H30+
