Answer: -2.373  x 10^-24J/K(particles

Explanation: Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness of a system which is a function of the state of a system and depends on the number of the random microstates present.

The entropy change for a particle in a system  depends on the initial and final states of a system and is given by Boltzmann equation as  

S = k ln(W) .

where S =Entropy

K IS Boltzmann constant ==1.38 x 10 ^-23J/K

W is the number of microstates available to the system.

 The  change in entropy is given as

S2 -S1 = kln W2 - klnW1

dS = k ln (W2/W1)

where w1 and w2 are initial and final microstates

from the question, W2(final) = 0.842 x W1(initial), so:

= 1.38*10-23 ln (0.842)

=1.38*10-23  x -0.1719

= -2.373  x 10^-24J/K(particles)

Increasing temperature can:
umka21 [38]

The answer would be A. You cannot decrease mass because of increasing temp so it can't be C and adding neutrons or protons would be changing the atom and therefore the element, and that is not possible through just an increase of temperature, so it can't be B or D. Hope this was helpful! ;)

zmey [24]
The higher the temperature of the gas, the faster the molecules move as they approach evaporating temperature. The lower the temperature of the gas, the slower the molecules move as they approach cooling temperature. The temperature controls how fast the molecules move

1.2.6 1-118 Find each sum.<br><br> A. 3/5 + 1/3<br><br> B. 5/7 + 1/2<br><br> C. 1/6 + 2/8
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

A. 14/15

B. 17/14

C. 5/12

Explanation:

Convert all so that the denominators are the same.

A.  3/5 + 1/3  = 9/15 + 5/15 = 14/15

B.  5/7 + 1/2 = 10/14 + 7/14 = 17/14

C.  1/6 + 2/8 = 4/24 + 6/24 = 10/24 = 5/12
