Answer: D. The elastic potential energy stored in the stretched rubber band changes to kinetic energy.

Explanation: According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another.

Elastic potential energy is the energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object. The energy is stored until the force is removed. When the force is removed,  the object gets back to its original shape.

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.

Which of the following is NOT an example of a chemical change?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

hi there !!

B) Water evaporates into steam.

this is correct because only physical state changes, steam can be cooled down to get water again.

A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f
deff fn [24]

Explanation:

Entropy means the amount of randomness present within the molecules of the body of a substance.

Relation between entropy and microstate is as follows.

           S = K_{b} \times ln \Omega

where,      S = entropy

             K_{b} = Boltzmann constant

             \Omega = number of microstates

This equation only holds good when the system is neither losing or gaining energy. And, in the given situation we assume that the system is neither gaining or losing energy.

Also, let us assume that \Omega = 1, and \Omega' = 0.833

Therefore, change in entropy will be calculated as follows.

     \Delta S = K_{b} \times ln \Omega' - K_{b} \times ln \Omega

                 = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times ln(0.833) - 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times \times ln(1)

                 = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times (-0.182)

                 = -0.251 \times 10^{-23}

or,             = -2.51 \times 10^{-24}

Thus, we can conclude that the entropy change for a particle in the given system is -2.51 \times 10^{-24} J/K particle.
