Answer:  1.  Water freezing : \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids: \Delta S is -ve.

5.  Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: \Delta S is -ve.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the measurement of degree of randomness in a system.

It is represented by symbol S and we can only measure a change in entropy which is given by \Delta S.

If there is decrease in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is -ve and If there is increase in randomness , the sign for \Delta S is +ve.

1.  Water freezing: Entropy decreases as we move from liquid state to  to solid state and thus \Delta S is -ve.

2. Water evaporating : Entropy increases as we move from liquid state to  gaseous state and thus \Delta S is +ve.

3. Crystalline urea dissolving : The molecules convert from solid and ordered state to aqueous phase and random state. Thus the entropy increases and thus \Delta S is +ve.

4. Assembly of the plasma membrane from individual lipids:  random lipids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

5. Assembly of a protein from individual amino acids: random amino acids are associating to form a single large polymer and thus entropy decreases and thus \Delta S is -ve.

5) answer is A
Burka [1]

Answer:

A)  positive; added

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2NaHCO3(s) + 129kJ → Na2CO3(s) + H2(g) + CO2(g)

<em>2 moles of NaHCO3 requires 129kJ to produce 1 mole of Na2CO3, 1 mole of H2 and 1 mole of CO2.</em>

<em />

That means, the energy must be added being, thus, an exothermic reaction. The exothermic reactions have ΔH >0.

Thus, right answer is:

A)  positive; added

Lakes that have been acidified by acid rain can be neutralized by limiting the addition of limestone how much limestone is requi
svet-max [94.6K]
From the given pH, we calculate the concentration of H+:
     [H+] = 10^-pH = 10^-5.5
We then use the volume to solve for the number of moles of H+:
     moles H+ = 10^-5.5M * 4.3x10^9 L =  13598 moles
From the balanced equation of the neutralization of hydrogen ion by limestone written as
     CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq)  → Ca2+(aq) + H2CO3(aq)
we use the mole ratio of limestone CaCO3 and H+ from their coefficients, which is 1 mole of CaCO3 is to react with 2 moles of H+, to compute for the mass of the limestone:
     mass CaCO3 = 13598mol H+(1mol CaCO3/2mol H+)
                               (100.0869g CaCO3/1mol CaCO3)(1kg/1000g) 
                            = 680 kg

Listening to music on your headphones converts what energy to what energy
zysi [14]

I think it converts electrical energy to sound energy because, say if you're listening to music on your phone but, with the speaker on. The speaker of the phone on the other end changes the electrical energy/ electromagnetic waves back into sound energy. I believe the same goes with headphones

True or false: the hydrogen atom is most stable when it has a full octet of electrons.
Mazyrski [523]
<em>This statement is false.</em> When you say full octet, it means that an element opts to have eight electrons in its valence shell to become stable. However, since a hydrogen atom only has 1 electron when neutral, it is impossible to reach a full octet. That is why Hydrogen is one of the exceptions to this octet rule.

10. Identify the products in the combustion of methane.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

a. CO2 and H20

Explanation:

Chemically, this combustion process consists of a reaction between methane and oxygen in the air. When this reaction takes place, the result is carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and a great deal of energy. The following reaction represents the combustion of methane:

CH4[g] + 2 O2[g] -> CO2[g] + 2 H2O[g] + energy

One molecule of methane, (the [g] referred to above means it is gaseous form), combined with two oxygen molecules, react to form a carbon dioxide molecule, and two water molecules usually given off as steam or water vapor during the reaction and energy.
