Vedmedyk [2.9K]3 years ago

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness present within the molecules of a substance.

When entropy of a reaction has a positive sign then it means there is an increase in the entropy. On the other hand, when entropy of a reaction has a negative sign then it means there is a decrease in entropy.

As, entropy change = entropy of products - entropy of reactants

And, larger is the value of entropy more will be the number of microstates.

When entropy is negative then entropy of products is less than the entropy of reactants.

This also means that products have small number of available energy microstates than reactants.

Thus, we can conclude that a negative change in entropy indicates that the products have a smaller number of available energy microstates than the reactants.

How many moles are there in 3.612 x 1024 formula units of Na2SO4?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

<h3>Theanswer is 6 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}  \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{3.612 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>6 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
