The entropy of an exothermic reaction decreases. This reaction will be spontaneous under which of the following temperatures?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:Low temperatures

Explanation:

∆G= ∆H-T∆S

If ∆H is negative (exothermic reaction), then in order to maintain ∆G<0 which is the condition for spontaneity; T must decrease. This is because, decrease in T will keep the difference of ∆H and T∆S at a negative value in order to satisfy the above stated condition for spontaneity.

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.
