Answer:

A.

Explanation:

For a process that occurs at constant temperature and pressure, spontaneity can be determined using the change in Gibbs free energy, which is given by:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. A process is spontaneous if ΔG≤O.

Even so the enthapy of the dissolution is positive the factor -TΔS will produce a negative ΔG  value. As ΔS is relatived to the disorder of a system, a increase in this value (ΔS ) upon dissolution will made the dissolution process spontaneous.

Give the major product formed when phenol is heated with concentrated H2SO4 and SO3. (There is more than one correct answer, but
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

See image attached and explanation

Explanation:

The reaction of phenol with SO3/H2SO4 is an electrophilic reaction. The electrophile attacks portions of high electron density in the substrate phenol.

The -OH group activates phenol towards electrophilic substitution at the ortho and para positions, hence the product(s) formed in this reaction(only one product is shown here as required by the question).

The sulphonation of phenol using concentrated sulfuric acid at lower temperature yields majorly the ortho product whereas at higher temperature the para product predominates.

How is popcorn good for protecting a egg?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:Possibilities include balloons, popcorn, packing peanuts, wads of paper or cereal puffs. Encase the egg in any of these inside a paper or plastic bag, a sock or a stocking. If you have any bubble wrap around the house, wrapping the egg in several layers of bubble wrap should also provide a good cushion
