The sample with the lowest AVERAGE kinetic energy is
the coolest one.
The sample with the lowest TOTAL kinetic energy depends on
not only the temperature of the samples, but also on their size,
since each molecule in the sample has kinetic energy.
Answer:
The ΔG° is 29 kJ and the reaction is favored towards reactant.
Explanation:
Based on the given information, the ΔH°rxn or enthalpy change is 41.2 kJ, the ΔS°rxn or change in entropy is 42.1 J/K or 42.1 * 10⁻³ kJ/K. The temperature given is 289 K. Now the Gibbs Free energy change can be calculated by using the formula,
ΔG° = ΔH°rxn - TΔS°rxn
= 41.2 kJ - 289 K × 42.1 × 10⁻³ kJ/K
= 41.2 kJ - 12.2 kJ
= 29 kJ
As ΔG° of the reaction is positive, therefore, the reaction is favored towards reactant.
D. More collisions occur and the time required for the reaction decreases
This happens because according to collision theory, when energy (in this case, thermal energy) is applied to particles, they move/vibrate more quickly.
Answer:
Pyridine will neutralize the acid by-product of the reaction.
Explanation:
In the esterifications, hydrochloric acid is released as a by-product that reacts directly with the pyridine in the medium to give the pyridine hydrochloride.
