“The Earth’s lithosphere is thinner than its asthenosphere”, the statement correctly compares the thicknesses of Earth’s layers

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

The outermost parts of the Earth composed of crust and a part of the upper mantle is termed as lithosphere. And asthenosphere is positioned below lithosphere. The bottom layer of lithosphere has the parts of the upper crust.

So the highly viscous and ductile region in the remaining part of the upper crust forms the asthenosphere below the lithosphere. The upper crust in the lithosphere region contain elastic properties while the upper crust in the asthenosphere is ductile in nature. Thus the statement that lithosphere is thinner than asthenosphere is true as it is located at the surface.

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o
meriva

Answer:

\boxed{-267.5}

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}

The equation for the reaction is

                        C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹   219.5      205.0         213.6         69.9

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}
