Answer is: Hg (mercury).

<span> Reactivity series is an empirical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their reactivity from highest to lowest (alkaline metals have highest reactivity and Noble metals lowest reactivity). This series are used to summarize information about the reactions of metals with acids or water, double displacement reactions (more reactive metals displace metals with lower reactivity) and the extraction of metals from their ores.</span>

In this example, magnesium and lead are more reactive than copper, mercury is less reactive.

A system gains 687 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to 156 kJ. How much work is done?

Maslowich

Answer:

w = -531 kJ

1. Work was done by the system.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Heat gained by the system (q): 687 kJ (By convention, when the system absorbs heat, q > 0).

Change in the internal energy of the system (ΔU°): 156 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the work done (w)

We will use the following expression.

ΔU° = q + w

w = ΔU° - q

w = 156 kJ - 687 kJ

w = -531 kJ

By convention, when w < 0, work is done by the system on the surroundings.

The ksp of lead iodide is 7.1 × 10-9. a chemical engineer adds 0.0025 mol of ki to a solution of 0.00004 mol pb(no3)2 in 500 ml

inn [45]

Answer is: n<span>o, because the ion product is less than the Ksp of lead iodide. </span>

Chemical dissociation 1: KI(s) → K⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq).
Chemical dissociation 2: Pb(NO₃)₂(s) → Pb²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq).
Chemical reaction: Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq) → PbI₂(s).
Ksp(PbI₂) = 7.1·10⁻⁹.
V = 500 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0.5 L.
c(KI) = c(I⁻) = 0.0025 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(I⁻) = 0.005 M.
c(Pb(NO₃)₂) = c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00004 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00008 M.
Q = c(Pb²⁺) · c(I⁻)².
Q = 8·10⁻⁵ M · (5·10⁻³ M)².
Q = 2·10⁻⁹; <span> the ion product.</span>

Without consulting Appendix B, arrange each group in order of decreasing standard molar entropy (S°). Explain.(b) NO₂(g), NO(g),

denpristay [2]

The decreasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

NO₂(g) > NO(g) > N₂(g)

<h3>What is Entropy? </h3>

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the particle. It depends on temperature and pressure or number of particle per unit volume.

It is directly proportional to the temperature and pressure of the gas.

<h3>What is Standard Molar Entropy? </h3>

The standard molar entropy is defined as the entropy content of the one mole of pure substance at the standard state of temperature and pressure of interest.

The standard molar entropy is also defined as the total amount of entropy which 1 mole of the substance acquire, as it is brought from 0K to standard conditions of temperature and pressure.

The standard molar entropy depends on the molas mass of atom, molecules or compound.

N₂ has lower standard molar entropy. This can be explained as this molecule consist of same atom.

While, Complexity increases from NO to NO₂(g). Therefore, the standard molar entropy of NO₂(g) is greater than NO.

Thus, we concluded that the decreasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

NO₂(g) > NO(g) > N₂(g)
