The two dimensions of aluminum foil are given 13.72 cm and 8.63 cm respectively with mass 3.1 g.

The density of aluminum is $2.7 g/cm^{3}$ . It is defined as mass per unit volume thus, volume of aluminum can be calculated as follows:

$V=\frac{m}{d}$

Putting the values.

$V=\frac{3.1 g}{2.7 g/cm^{3}}=1.148 cm^{3}$

The volume of cuboid is $l\times b\times h$ , the length and breadth are given, height can be calculated as follows;

$h=\frac{V}{l\times b}$

Putting the values,

$h=\frac{1.148 cm^{3}}{(13.72 cm)(8.63 cm)}=0.009695 cm$

Or, approximately 9.7\times 10^{-3}cm

Therefore, thickness of aluminum foil is $9.7\times 10^{-3}cm$

In which conditions combination and displacement reaction takes place explain with example.

expeople1 [14]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

In <u>Combination reaction</u>, two or more elements combined to form one compound of different properties.

C(s) + O2(g) ⇢ CO2(g).
H2(g) + O2(g) ⇢ H20(l).

In <u>Displacement reation</u>, the high reactive element displaces the low reactive element and formed compound of different properties.

Fe(s) + CuSo4(aq) ⇢ FeSo4(aq) + Cu(s).
AgNO3(aq) + Cu(s) ⇢ CuNO3(aq) + Ag(s).

Answer:

In the reaction between p-aminophenol and acetic anhydride to form acetaminophen, 4.5 ml of water were added. This was done to recover the product out the container. Water was used as a means of carrying out the product out the container. However, it should be noted that we would want a small amount to be added in order to avoid the product dissolving onto it.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

a) If the reaction has a large negative ΔGo value, the reaction must reach equilibrium at a small extent of reaction value

d) ΔGo and ΔG have the same magnitude, they just have opposite signs.

Explanation:

The fraction of the total heat energy if a system that does useful work is known as Gibb's free energy (G) and the change from the initial to final state is designated by $\Delta G$ . It is observed that the values of $\Delta G$ changes with experimental conditions such as temperature , pressure , concentration etc.

$\Delta G^0$ is the standard free energy change which is a balance of two natural tendencies of any system.

Minimization of potential energy or enthalpic factor $\Delta H^0$

Maximization of disorderliness or entropic factor $T\Delta S^0$

Mathematically; $\Delta G$ = $\Delta H^0$ - $T\Delta S^0$

Thus; from above mentioned, the statements that are true about ΔG⁰ and ΔG are:

ΔG⁰ and ΔG can have different values, they don't even have to have the same sign

For a reaction that reaches equilibrium, the minimum value of free energy must be at the equilibrium point

If ΔG⁰ , measured at an extent of reaction = 0.5, is positive, the sign for ΔG when the extent of reaction = 0.80 is also positive.

while the false statements include:

a) If the reaction has a large negative ΔG⁰ value, the reaction must reach equilibrium at a small extent of reaction value

d) ΔG⁰ and ΔG have the same magnitude, they just have opposite signs.
