The following drawing is a representation of a reaction of the type A → B, where different shaded spheres represent different mo
Alex73 [517]

Answer: The given reaction is non-spontaneous at low temperatures and spontaneous at high temperatures.

Explanation:

We know that relation between free energy and enthalpy is as follows.

             \Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S

As in the given drawing, solid is converting into gas. This means that there is occurring an increase in entropy of the system. This also means that the enthalpy change will also be positive.

Free energy change is negative (spontaneous) at high temperature and free energy change is positive at low temperature.

Hence, we can conclude that the given reaction is non-spontaneous at low temperatures and spontaneous at high temperatures.

The volume of a gas is 605 liters at 27.0°C. The new temperature is -3.0°C. What is the new volume? (Remember to convert tempera
Daniel [21]

Answer: The new volume is 544 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final volume of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

V_1=605L\\T_1=27.0^oC=(27.0+273)K=300K\\V_2=?\\T_2=-3.0^0C=(273+(-3.0))K=270K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{605}{300}=\frac{V_2}{270}\\\\V_2=544L

Thus the new volume is 544 L

0.225L solution of H2CO3 is neutralized by 0.0880L of a 1.22 M Fe(OH)3 solution. What
ikadub [295]

Answer:

0.716

Explanation:

First, write the balanced equation:

3 H2CO3 + 2 Fe(OH)3 ----> Fe2(CO3)3 + 6 H2O

Second, go from the molarity of H2CO3 to liters of Fe(OH)3

(Pull mole ratio from balanced equation)

1.22/1L  x  0.0880/1  x  3molH2CO3/2molFe(OH)3 x 1/0.225L

Use calculator, and you end up with 0.7157333

Round to 0.716
