Consider the entropy change in the following chemical or physical processes:
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Recall that entropy measures the number of microstates in a substance, which is highest in gases, followed by liquids and solids. Hence, entropy increases if the products have more gaseous molecules than the reactants.

  • In reaction one, chlorine gas is converted into solid NaCl, so entropy decreaes.
  • In reaction two, four moles of gas are converted into two moles of gas, so entropy decreases.
  • In reaction three, ice is melted to form water, which has higher entropy. Thus, entropy increases.
  • In reaction four, a liquid is freezed into its solid phase, leading to a decrease in entropy.
  • In reaction five, oxygen gas is converted into solid MgO, so entropy decreases.

In conclusion, the answer is D.

Which of the following statements is true about the molecule shown below?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

B. The bonds are polar and the molecule is nonpolar.

Explanation:

Each bond in the molecule is polar, as indicated by the partial charges on the atoms of the molecule. However, the four atoms are arranged symmetrically around the central atom. In this case, the effects of the partial charges on opposite sides cancel out. As a result, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar. If exposed to an electric field, the molecule will not orient itself in any particular direction.
