How does the entropy of steam compare to the entropy of ice?

Physics

baherus [9]3 years ago

Answer:

One of the thermodynamic principles says that the entropy increases when the temperature increases, and we have the relation:

dS/dT > 0.

Now, we know that the steam will have more temperature than the ice, so we can say that the entropy of the steam is bigger than the one of the ice.

You also can see in a more "simplistic" concept, entropy is viewed as the amount of "disorder". Now, then the ice has a defined shape where each particle kinda maintains their position, the case is different for gas (the steam in this case) where the particles are almost free, then in the gas, the disorder is bigger than in the ice, and the entropy is also bigger.

The answer is; The entropy of steam is larger than because it is more disordered than ice

Entropy is synonymous to the degree of disorder or randomness of molecules in a system. The molecules of steam are far apart from each other and move randomly in the system colliding with each other. Those of ice has less kinetic energy, vibrate more or less in a fixed position in the structiure, and are arranged in a orderd fashion

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Option B, Fix the piston in place so the volume of the pas remains constant

Explanation:

As we know

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

The effect on variable due to another variable can be studied by keeping the third variable constant.

Hence, in order the study the variation of temperature with pressure or vice versa, the volume needs to fixed at a certain value.

Hence, option B is correct

What is the weight of an astronaut who has a mass of 90 kg on the moon? (Note: acceleration due to gravity of the moon is 1.62 N
motikmotik

Answer:

W = 145.8 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravity, in this case lunar gravity.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 90 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 1.62 [kg/m²]

W = 90*1.62

W = 145.8 [N]

Daffy Duck is standing 6.8 m away from Minnie Duck. The attractive gravitational force between them is 5.4x10-8 N. If Daffy Duck
artcher [175]

Answer:

432.78 Kg

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance apart (r) = 6.8 m

Force of attraction (F) = 5.4×10¯⁸ N

Mass of Daffy Duck (M₁) = 86.5 kg

Mass of Minnie Duck (M₂) =?

NOTE: Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

The mass of Minnie Duck can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 6.8²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 46.24

Cross multiply

6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ =5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24

Divide both side by 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24 / 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 432.78 Kg

Therefore, the mass of Minnie Duck is 432.78 Kg
