what are the statements that you are able to choose from or do you just have to know?
Li + H2O →<span> LiOH + H2
The equation is currently unbalanced, so to balance it out, you have to have the same number of each molecule on each side. It'll look like this:
</span>2Li + 2H2O → <span>2LiOH + H2
</span>
Also, in case you want to identify the phases as well, it'll be like this:
2Li (s) + 2H2O (l) → 2LiOH (aq) + H2 (g)
"s" is solid.
"l" is liquid.
"aq" is aquas.
"g" is gas.
The process of distillation
Answer:
2. ΔG is zero, ΔH is positive, and ΔS is positive
Explanation:
When the ice is being converted to water ate 0ºC and 1 atm, there is an equilibrium between the solid and the liquid. At the equilibrium point, ΔG (the free energy) is zero. It is negative for spontaneous reactions and positive for nonspontaneous reactions.
For the phase change happens, the ice must absorb heat from the surroundings, so it's an endothermic reaction, and because of that ΔH (the enthalpy) must be positive. It is negative for exothermic reactions.
In the liquid state, the molecules have more energy and the randomness is higher than the solid-state. The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness, so if it's increasing, ΔS must be positive.
