In thermodynamics and physical chemistry, the Gibb's free energy is the criterion for spontaneity. If the Gibb's free energy, denoted as ΔG, is negative, then the reaction is spontaneous. If it is positive, it is non-spontaneous. To estimate ΔG, there is a derived relationship between Gibb's free energy, enthalpy and entropy. The equation is

ΔG=ΔH-TΔS, where ΔH and ΔS is the enthalpy and entropy of the reaction, and T is the temperature at which the reaction happens.
So if ΔH and ΔS are both positive, in order to make ΔG negative, T must be very high. In this way, TΔS would be larger than ΔH.

Therefore, a reaction with a positive ΔH and ΔS will be spontaneous at high temperatures.

Mg2OH has how many unique elements?<br> A. <br> 4<br> B. <br> 2<br> C. <br> 3<br> D. <br> 5
frutty [35]

Answer:

Magnesium hydroxide has 3 unique elements.

Explanation:

Long story short, 2 is the balancing compound in structure to make up hydroxide, therefore 1 compound would be left to create Mg(2O)H.

(This is only an opinion of mathematical science to me, I don't have complete understanding of this subject either, good luck.)

How are the atomic number and the number of protons related to each other? how do the number of protons, number of neutrons, and
jarptica [38.1K]

The atomic number (Z) uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.

The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

In this video Kristine Born explains this two concepts in more detail.
