Answer:

A. ΔS°rxn decreases

B. ΔS°rxn decreases

C. ΔS°rxn has little or no change

D. ΔS°rxn increases

Explanation:

The change in entropy (ΔS°rxn) is related to the change in the number of moles of gases (Δn(gas) = n(gas products) - n(gas reactants)). If the number of moles of gases increases, there are more possible microstates and entropy increases. The opposite happens when there are less gaseous moles. And little or no change in entropy is expected when the number of moles of reactants and products is the same.

<em>A. K(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ KO₂(s)</em>

Δn(gas) = 0 - 1 = -1

ΔS°rxn decreases

<em>B. CO(g)+ 3 H₂(g) ⟶ CH₄(g) + H₂O(g)</em>

Δn(gas) = 2 - 4 = -2

ΔS°rxn decreases

<em>C. CH₄(g) + 2 O₂(g) ⟶ CO₂(g)+ 2 H₂O(g)</em>

Δn(gas) = 3  - 3 = 0

ΔS°rxn has little or no change

D. N₂O₄(g) ⟶ 2 NO(g) + O₂(g)

Δn(gas) = 3 - 1 = 2

ΔS°rxn increases

You are given an unknown gaseous binary compound (that is, a compound consisting of two different elements). when 10.0 g of the
Luda [366]

Answer is: a possible identity for the unknown compound is C₃H₈.

m(binary compound) = 10.0 g.

m(H₂O) = 16.3 g; mass of water.

M(O₂) = 32 g/mol; molar mass of oxygen.

M(binary compound) = 1.38 · 32 g/mol.

M(binary compound) = 44.16 g/mol.

n(binary compound) = 10 g ÷ 44.16 g/mol.

n(binary compound) = 0.225 mol; amount of substance.

n(H₂O) = 16.3 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 0.9 mol; amount of water.

m(H₂O) : n(binary compound) = 0.9 mol ÷ 0.225 mol.

m(H₂O) : n(binary compound) = 4 : 1.

Unknown cpmpound has 4 times more hydrogen than water, it has 8 hydrogen atoms.

Second element in compound is carbon:

M(X) = 44.16 g/mol - 8 · 1.01 g/mol.

M(X) = 36.08 g/mol ÷ 3.

M(C) = 12.01 g/mol.

Julia did an experiment to study the solubility of two substances. She poured 100 mL of water at 20 °C into each of two beakers
Aleks [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The solubility of B is high than the solubility of A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The solubility is defined as the amount of substance dissolved in a given amount of solvent. More the solute gets dissolved, high will be the solubility and less the solute dissolved, low will be the solubility.

For the given observations:

Mass of undissolved substance of substance A is more than Substance B at every temperature. This implies that less amount of solute gets dissolved in the given amount of solvent.

Hence, substance B has high solubility than substance A.

Ronch [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The gas produced when sodium phosphide reacts with water is phosphine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When sodium phosphide reacts with water molecule, it leads to the production of flammable, poisonous gas known as phosphine along with the production of sodium hydroxide.

The chemical reaction for the reaction of sodium phosphide with water follows the equation:

Na_3P(aq.)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow PH_3(g)+3NaOH(aq.)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of sodium phosphide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 1 mole of phosphine gas and 3 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Hence, the gas produced when sodium phosphide reacts with water is phosphine.
