The forward reaction of C (diamond) -> C (graphite) is spontaneous at 298 K

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Gibbs free energy is the maximum possible work given by chemical reactions at constant pressure and temperature. Gibbs free energy can be used to determine the spontaneity of a reaction

If the Gibbs free energy value is <0 (negative) then the chemical reaction occurs spontaneously. If the change in free energy is zero, then the chemical reaction is at equilibrium, if it is> 0, the process is not spontaneous

Free energy of reaction (G) is the sum of its enthalpy (H) plus the product of the temperature and the entropy (S) of the system

Can be formulated: (at any temperature)

$\large{\boxed{\bold{\Delta G=\Delta H-T.\Delta S}}}$

or at (25 Celsius / 298 K, 1 atm = standard)

ΔG ° reaction = ΔG ° f (products) - ΔG ° f (reactants)

Under standard conditions:

∆G ° = ∆H ° - T∆S °

The value of °H ° can be calculated from the change in enthalpy of standard formation:

∆H ° (reaction) = ∑H ° (product) - ∑ H ° (reagent)

The value of ΔS ° can be calculated from standard entropy data

∆S ° (reaction) = ∑S ° (product) - ∑ S ° (reagent)

If we look at the standard free Gibbs energy for the transformation from diamond to graphite at 298 K:

∆G ° rxn = -2.90 kJ

then a negative value indicates that reaction

C (diamond) -> C (graphite) occurs spontaneously (forward reaction)

The gibbs free energy of the reaction of diamond to graphite is equal to -2.90 kJ/mol. The free energy is negative which means that the reaction is spontaneous. Therefore, the forward reaction is favored. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Explanation:

The w/v concentration is obtained from, mass/volume. Hence;

%w/v= 50/1000= 5%

In the %w/w we have;

25g/100 g = 25% w/w

In combustion reaction, energy is given out hence it is exothermic.

Neutralization reaction yields a salt and water

% by mass of carbon is obtained from;

8× 12/114 × 100 = 84.1%

All the ionic substances mentioned have very low solubility in water.

One mole of a substance contains the Avogadro's number of each atom in the compound.

There are two iron atoms so one mole contains 2× 55.85 g of iron.

Some sulphates such as BaSO4 are insoluble in water.

Halides are soluble in water hence NaI is soluble in water.

The equation does not balance with the given coefficients because the number of atoms of each element on both sides differ.

The equation represents a decomposition of calcium carbonate as written.

Jeffrey is on his skateboard and starts skating down a ramp. Ten seconds later he is travelling at

AfilCa [17]

Answer: 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Velocity of skateboard = 20.0 m/s.

Time taken = Ten seconds (10 s)

Acceleration = ?

Recall that acceleration is the change in velocity of a body per unit time.

i.e Acceleration = (velocity / Time)

Acceleration = 20.0m/s ➗ 10 s

Acceleration = 2m/s^2

Thus, Jeffrey acceleration was 2m/s^2
