Answer:
positive
positive
Explanation:
Entropy -
In a system, the randomness is measured by the term entropy .
Randomness basically refers as a form of energy that can not be used for any work.
The change in entropy is given by amount heat per change in temperature.
- When solid is converted to gas entropy increases,
As the molecules in solid state are tightly packed and has more force of attraction between the molecules, but as it is converted to gas, the force of attraction between the molecule decreases and hence entropy increases.
So,
The particles of the substance , if are tightly held by strong force of attraction will decrease the entropy ,
And
If the particles are loosely held , the entropy will increase , i.e. , positive entropy .
Similar with solid converting to liquid , the entropy will increases , i.e. , positive entropy .
Hence ,
The correct sign of entropy for both the process is positive .
prince Henry is your answer (:
As long as there is some oxygen, the reaction will occur. If there is an insufficient amount of oxygen, then the oxygen will be the limiting reacting and there will be excess of the other reactants.
Explanation:
Each element in the periodic table has different but fixed number of the protons in nucleus of it's atom, which is known as the atomic number.
Transmutation of one chemical element into the another involves the changing of the atomic number. Such nuclear reaction requires millions of the times more energy as compared to normal chemical reactions. Thus, the dream of the alchemist of transmuting the lead into the gold was never achievable chemically .
Conversion of lead to gold in today's world:
This conversion is indeed possible. The requirements are a particle accelerator, tremendous supply of the energy. Nuclear scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory located in California, more than 30 years ago, succeeded in producing very minute amounts of the gold from the bismuth. Bismuth is a metallic element which is adjacent to the lead on periodic table. Same process would work for the lead but isolating gold at end of reaction would prove much more difficult because lead is available in many isotopes. The homogeneous nature of the element means that it is easier to separate the gold from the bismuth as compared to separate the gold from the lead which has four isotopic identities which all are stable.
