Answer:
a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.
Explanation:
The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:

-
When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
- When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is
spontaneous in the opposite direction.
- When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.
If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.
Answer:
433 m
Explanation:
Since the fall represents motion under gravity, we use the equation
s = ut - 1/2gt² where s = height of cliff or distance bowling ball falls through, u = initial velocity of bowling ball = 0 m/s(since it starts from rest), t = time = 9.4 s and g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s².
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
s = 0 m/s × 9.4 s - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (9.4 s)²
s = 0 m - 1/2 × -9.8 m/s² × 88.36 s²
s = 1/2(865.928 m)
s = 432.964
s ≅ 433 m
