HELP!!!! The freezing of methane is an exothermic change. What best describes the temperature conditions that are likely to make

this a spontaneous change? Any temperature, because entropy increases during freezing. Any temperature, because entropy decreases during freezing. Low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing. High temperature only, because entropy increases during freezing.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The relationship between Gibb's free energy, enthalpy, entropy and temperature is given by the equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Where,

\Delta G = change in Gibb's free energy

\Delta H = change in enthalpy

T = temperature

\Delta S = change in entropy

It is given that freezing of methane is taking place, which means that entropy is decreasing and Delta S is becoming negative. It is also given that the reaction is an exothermic reaction, this means that the \Delta H is also negative.

For a reaction to be spontaneous, \Delta G must be negative.

-ve=-ve-[T(-ve)]\\\\-ve=-ve+T

From above equations, it is visible that \Delta G will be negative only when the temperature will be low.

Hence, the correct statement is low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing.

How can you tell if a chemical equation is balanced
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.

Explanation:

    The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.

    The number of atoms that are in the  reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.

    The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.

When a lead acid car battery is recharged by the alternator, it acts essentially as an electrolytic cell in which solid lead(II)
lesya692 [45]

Answer: The mass of lead deposited on the cathode of the battery is 1.523 g.

Explanation:

Given: Current = 62.0 A

Time = 23.0 sec

Formula used to calculate charge is as follows.

Q = I \times t

where,

Q = charge

I = current

t = time

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

Q = I \times t\\= 62.0 A \times 23.0 sec\\= 1426 C

It is known that 1 mole of a substance tends to deposit a charge of 96500 C. Therefore, number of moles obtained by 1426 C of charge is as follows.

Moles = \frac{1426 C}{96500 C/mol}\\= 0.0147 mol

The oxidation state of Pb in PbSO_{4} is 2. So, moles deposited by Pb is as follows.

Moles of Pb = \frac{0.0147}{2}\\= 0.00735 mol

It is known that molar mass of lead (Pb) is 207.2 g/mol. Now, mass of lead is calculated as follows.

No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\ 0.00735 = \frac{mass}{207.2 g/mol}\\mass = 1.523 g

Thus, we can conclude that the mass of lead deposited on the cathode of the battery is 1.523 g.
