What must be true of the free energy change, trangle G, for a reaction to be spontaneous?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A) It must be negative

Explanation:

A spontaneous reaction in Chemistry is that which is proceeding in a particular direction without the intervention of any external effect. As a spontaneous reaction proceeds (which can be relatively slow), free energy ΔG, which is the available energy for work, is released.

Gibbs free energy, ΔG, is released during a spontaneous process and hence the ΔG is negative because the reactants have more free energy than the products, hence, no energy input is needed for the reaction to proceed forward but rather an energy output. This is what makes a negative ΔG depict a spontaneous reaction.

What is an example of how to supply activation energy to begin reaction
Sergio039 [100]

Heating the reaction flask on a hot plate is an example of supplying activation energy to begin a reaction.

Explanation:

<u>Definition:</u>

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to start a particular chemical reaction.

For example: When hydrogen and oxygen are mixed together it does not immediately start the reaction to form water. So, to start the reaction a small electric spark is provided or it is heated to provide some energy. This energy causes the molecules of hydrogen and water to react, thus producing even more molecules to react and finally water is formed.

Here the electric spark or the heat provided is the activation energy.

If two gases are present in a container, the total pressure in the container is equal to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.

Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2

where Ptotal is the total pressure

P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.

Which statement is true about BF3, a nonpolar molecule? It has nonpolar bonds and a symmetrical structure. It has nonpolar bonds
konstantin123 [22]
I think the correct answer is the first option. It has nonpolar bonds and a symmetrical structure. The structure of a BF3 molecule shows a symmetrical trigonal geometry. The net dipole moment of the molecule is zero therefore it is polar.
