In which of the following reactions is ΔS positive?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ira [324]3 years ago

Answer: letter b. 

Why?
 Because Entropy(ΔS) INCREASES when INCREASING disorder in a reaction.

A. INCORRECT. Negative ΔS. This is because there are less molecules of gas in the products compared to the reactants.
B. CORRECT. Positive ΔS. This is because you are increasing disorder by breaking down a solid(highly ordered) molecule into two ions in solution(in solution they are less ordered).
C. INCORRECT. Negative ΔS. This is because you are going from a (g)gas which has more disorder to a (s)solid which has much less disorder than a gas.
D. INCORRECT. Negative ΔS. This is because you are decreasing disorder by building a single molecule. There are also more moles of gas on the reactants side indicating a negative ΔS.

A. 1.0 liter of a 1.0 M mercury (II) chloride (HgCl2) solution<br> IMO)
insens350 [35]

What mass of the following chemicals is needed to make the solutions indicated?

Answer:

271.6g

Explanation:

The mass of the chemicals need to make the needed solution can be derived by obtaining the number of moles first.

Given parameters:

Volume of solution  = 1L

Molarity of HgCl₂  = 1M

    number of moles of HgCl₂  = molarity of solution x volume

                                                   =   1 x 1

                                                    = 1 mole

From;

           Mass of a substance  = number of moles x molar mass;

  we can find mass;

          Molar mass of HgCl₂  = 200.6 + 2(35.5)  = 271.6g/mol

       Mass of the substance  = 1 x 271.6  = 271.6g
