So since every 20 mins the mass will be cut in half (and that happens 3 times), you have just got to divide 1g by 2, 3 times.

after 20 mins the mass will be .5

after 40 mins the mass will be .25

Answer: After 1 hour the mass will be .125g

A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f
deff fn [24]

Explanation:

Entropy means the amount of randomness present within the molecules of the body of a substance.

Relation between entropy and microstate is as follows.

           S = K_{b} \times ln \Omega

where,      S = entropy

             K_{b} = Boltzmann constant

             \Omega = number of microstates

This equation only holds good when the system is neither losing or gaining energy. And, in the given situation we assume that the system is neither gaining or losing energy.

Also, let us assume that \Omega = 1, and \Omega' = 0.833

Therefore, change in entropy will be calculated as follows.

     \Delta S = K_{b} \times ln \Omega' - K_{b} \times ln \Omega

                 = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times ln(0.833) - 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times \times ln(1)

                 = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times (-0.182)

                 = -0.251 \times 10^{-23}

or,             = -2.51 \times 10^{-24}

Thus, we can conclude that the entropy change for a particle in the given system is -2.51 \times 10^{-24} J/K particle.

Element m reacts with fluorine to form an ionic compound with the formula mf4. the m cation has 18 electrons. element m is:____.
polet [3.4K]

Element M reacts with fluorine to form an ionic compound with the formula MF₄. The M cation has 18 electrons. Element M is Sn.

<h3>What is Ionic Compound ?</h3>

An ionic compound is defined as the compound made up of ions that formed charge particles when an atom loses or gains electrons.

<h3>What is Cation ?</h3>

Cations are positively charged ions. It forms when an element lose one or more electrons.

The cation which has 18 electrons is Sn. Sn react with fluorine to form an ionic compound with the formula SnF₄ because Sn is large and F is very small in size.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Element M reacts with fluorine to form an ionic compound with the formula MF₄. The M cation has 18 electrons. Element M is Sn.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!A 450 ml gas sample has a pressure of 1.25 atm at 65 °C. What is the temperature, in °C, at which the ga
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

89°C

Explanation:

Combined Gas Law (P₁V₁)/T₁ = (P₂V₂)/T₂

(1.25 atm)(450 mL)/(65°C) = (0.89 atm)(865 mL)/T₂

8.653846154 = 769.85/T₂

T₂ = 769.85/8.653846154

T₂ = 88.96044444 = 89°C
