Answer:
A full moon occurs when the Moon appears as a complete circle in the sky.
Explanation:
- We see it as a full orb because the whole of the side of the Moon facing the Earth is lit up by the Sun's rays.
- The moon shows no visible light of its own, so we only see the parts of the moon that are lit up by other objects.
Answer:
=154.8 J
Explanation:
The rise in temperature is contributed by the change in temperature.
Change in enthalpy = MC∅, where M is the mass of the substance, C is the specific heat capacity and ∅ is the change in temperature.
Change in temperature = 100.0°C-20.0°C=80°C
ΔH=MC∅
The specific heat capacity of gold= 0.129 J/g°C
ΔH= 15.0g×0.129J/g°C×80°C
=154.8 J
Answer:
A reaction is non-spontaneous at any temperature when the Gibbs free energy > 0.
Explanation:
There is a state function, that determines if a reaction is sponaneous or non spontaneous:
ΔG = Gibbs free energy
A reaction is non spontaneous when it does require energy to produce that reaction. It will be spontaneous, when the reaction does not require energy to be occured.
The formula is: ΔG = ΔH - T.ΔS
ΔH → Enthalpy → Energy gained or realeased as heat.
ΔH < 0 → <em>Exothermic reaction. Spontaneity is favored
</em>
T → Temperature
ΔS → Entropy → Degree of disorder of a system.
When the system has a considered disorder ΔS > 0, disorder increases.
When the system is more ordered, ΔS < 0, disorder decreases.
The reaction will be non spontaneous if, the enthalpy is positive (endothermic reaction) and the ΔS < 0 (disorder decreases). It will not occur if we do not give energy.
ΔG < 0 → Spontaneous reaction
ΔG > 0 → Non spontaneous reaction
ΔG = 0 → System in equilibrium
