What is the difference between an enthalpy driven reaction and entropy driven reaction?

1 answer:

5 0

Enthalpy is regarding the amount of heat that is given off or taken in during the process of a reaction, while entropy is about the disorderliness of a reaction.
Both are related in the equation ∆G=∆H-T∆S, where ∆G is the Gibbs free energy. So we can say that a reaction is both enthalpy and entropy driven. It's like, both of them are interlinked with each other.

What size container is needed to hold 7.00 mol of a gas at 342 K and 255 kPa? *

ValentinkaMS [17]

PV = nRT

I only know the valeu of R is you're using atm, so convert kPa to atm.

1 atm = 101.325 kPa

2.52 atm = 255 kPa

2.52atm(x) = 7(.0821)(342)

2.52atm(x) = 196.5

x = 78

Answer:

A chemical reaction was producing a new substance.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction

NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H2O

Heat of neutralization is the amount of heat evolved when one mole of acid reacts with one mole of an alkaline to form one mole of water.

When a neutralisation reaction is carried out, there is an exothermic change; energy released into the surroundings therefore since heat is given out which is what is felt.
