marshall27 [118]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:Increase in the entropy of the universe are the result of chemical reactions

Explanation:

The second law tells about the quality of energy such that any isolated system tends to become more disordered. Any natural Process occurring on its own is irreversible and entropy is increasing for that process.  

The entropy of the Universe is increasing which is the result of chemical reactions. Any chemical reaction which increases the number of gas molecules will generate more entropy. Entropy in simple meaning is the order of randomness.

A bag of ice cubes absorbs 149,000 J of heat, which causes its temperature to increase by 5.23 degrees celsius. what is the mass
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

14.3kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Quantity of heat = 149000J

Change in temperature = 5.23°C

specific heat of the ice = 2000J/kg°C

Unknown:

Mass of the ice in the bag = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a substance is given as:

            H = m c Ф

H is the heat capacity

m is the mass

c is the specific heat

Ф is the temperature change;

  since m is the unknown, we make it the subject of the expression;

                    m = H/ mФ

                  m = \frac{149000}{2000 x 5.23}  = 14.3kg
