What is the entropy change of the surroundings
KiRa [710]

Answer: The entropy change of the surroundings will be -17.7 J/K mol.

Explanation: The enthalpy of vapourization for 1 mole of acetone is 31.3 kJ/mol

Amount of Acetone given = 10.8 g

Number of moles is calculated by using the formula:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of acetone = 58 g/mol

Number of moles = \frac{10.8}{58}=0.1862moles

If 1 mole of acetone has 32.3 kJ/mol of enthalpy, then

0.1862 moles will have = \frac{32.3}{1}\times 0.1862=5.828kJ/mol

To calculate the entropy change for the system, we use the formula:

\Delta S_{sys}=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{T(\text{ in K)}}

Temperature = 56.2°C = (273 + 56.2)K = 329.2K

Putting values in above equation, we get

\Delta S_{sys}=\frac{5.828}{329.2}=0.0177kJ/Kmol=17.7J/Kmol   (Conversion Factor: 1 kJ = 1000J)

At Boiling point, the liquid phase and gaseous phase of acetone are in equilibrium. Hence,

\Delta S_{system}+\Delta S_{surrounding}=0

\Delta S_{surrouding}=-\Delta S_{system}=-17.7J/Kmol

Report the number 315.05 to 3 significant figures.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

315.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the given number has five significant figures as the zero is to the right of the first nonzero digit (3), if it is required to report it with three significant figures, it is necessary to "cut" it at the first five without any rounding since the subsequent zero is less than five.

Thus the number turns out:

315

Best regards.

The reaction takes place in water. What happens to the equilibrium when the pressure is increased? a)It favors formation of prod
OLga [1]

Answer:

I don't really get the options but it favoures the reactant side.

Explanation:

Increasing pressure favours the side with fewer moles of gas while decreasing pressure favours the side with the more moles of gas. E.g

If there is 0 moles of gas particles in the reactant side and 1 mole of gas particle in the product side, increasing pressure favours the reactants while decreasing pressure favours the product side.

With the explanations I have made, I hope the question is now clear to you.

Determine the mass of hydrogen contained in 9.06 x 1024 H2O molecules.
Elza [17]

Answer:

15.2 g H2

Explanation:

2H2O -> 2H2 + O2

9.06 x 10^24 molecules x (1 mol/6.022 x 10^23 molecules) x (2 mol H2/2 mol H2O) x (1.008 g/1 mol) = 15.2 g H2
