The reaction H2(g)+F2(g)?2HF(g) is spontaneous at all temperatures. A classmate calculates the entropy change for this reaction

and obtains a large negative value for ?S?.
Part A

Did your classmate make a mistake in the calculation?

Did your classmate make a mistake in the calculation?

There is mistake in the calculation. The second law states that in any spontaneous process there is an increase in the entropy of the universe.
There is mistake in the calculation. The second law states that in any spontaneous process the increase in the entropy of the system equals zero. Also there is a decrease in entropy of the system, as in the present case, this decrease is canceled by an increase in entropy of the surroundings.
There is no mistake in the calculation. The second law states that in any spontaneous process there is an decrease in the entropy of the system. Also there is a decrease in entropy of the system, as in the present case.
There is no mistake in the calculation. The second law states that in any spontaneous process the decrease in the entropy of the system equals zero. Also there might be a decrease in entropy of the system, as in the present case, this decrease is canceled by an increase in entropy of the surroundings.

Answer:

The correct answer is there is a mistake in the calculation. The second law of thermodynamics state that in any spontaneous process there is an increase in the entropy of the universe.

Explanation:

According to the second law a reaction will occur in a system spontaneously if the total entropy of both system and surrounding increases during the reaction.That means in case of spontaneous reaction entropy change is always positive.

     But according to the question the reaction H2+F2=2HF is spontaneous in all temperature.So according to the second law of thermodynamics i can say that my classmate made a mistake in calculation that"s why his result for entropy change comes negative.

The meselson-stahl experiment demonstrated that DNA replication is semi conservative in the figure semi conservative replication
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D.

Explanation:

The semi-conservative mode of replication is the common method of replication used by mostly organisms on earth which were demonstrated by the Meselson and Stahl in 1958.

They used the isotopes of the nitrogen which contains extra neuron which makes the nitrogen-heavy and cultured them in bacteria

The experiment concluded that newly replicated double stranded DNA contains one newly synthesized DNA strand which is complementary to another parental strand. Thus new DNA molecule has one parental strand while other newly synthesized strand.

This is best illustrated by the option-D in the figure and therefore is the correct answer.

How many g of silver chloride will be produced by reacting 10g of silver nitrate with sodium chloride?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

16.8 g of AgCl are produced

Explanation:

The reactants are: NaCl and AgNO₃

The products are:  AgCl, NaNO₃

Balanced equation:  NaCl(aq) +  AgNO₃(aq)  → NaNO₃(aq) + AgCl(s) ↓

We convert the mass of AgNO₃ to moles → 10 g / 85g/mol = 0.117 moles

Ratio is 1:1, therefore 0.117 moles of nitrate will produce 0.117 moles of AgCl.

According to stoichiormetry.

We convert the moles to mass → 0.117 mol . 143.3g /1mol = 16.8 g
