What is the value of DeltaG in a spontaneous reaction

2 answers:

6 0

Gibbs free energy of a reaction ( Δ G ) is the change in free energy of a system that undergoes the chemical reaction. It is the energy associated with the reaction, which is available to do some useful work. If ΔG<0 , then the reaction can be utilized to do some useful work. If ΔG>0 , then work has to be done on the system or external energy is required to make the reaction happen. ΔG=0 when the reaction is at equilibrium and there is no net change taking place in the system.

I believe that DeltaG is negative for a spontaneous reaction.

What changes occur in the nuclei of atoms involved in the reactions that fuel nuclear power plants?

Marina CMI [18]

Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two different types of energy-releasing reactions that occur in the nuclei of an atom.
Here are the major differences between the two:

1. To differentiate the two, fission is the splitting of an atom into two or more smaller atoms while fusion is the conjoining or fusion of two or smaller atoms into larger one.

2. Fission does not normally occur in nature while fusion occurs mostly in heavenly bodies such as the stars.

3.Fission produces highly radioactive particles that can be hazardous to both the living things and its habitat or environment while fusion is "clean energy" and "environmental friendly" meaning there are fewer radioactive particles are produced. But if a fission "trigger" is being used, there will be radioactive particles produced.

Among the two nuclear changes, fission is widely used because this reaction produces heat in nuclear reactor. This heat is used to generate steam which operates the turbines to eventually produce electricity.

List two detection (i.e. visualisation) techniques commonly used to visualise<br> compounds in TLC.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The most common non-destructive visualization method for TLC plates is ultraviolet (UV) light. A UV lamp can be used to shine either short-waved (254nm) or long-waved (365nm) ultraviolet light on a TLC plate with the touch of a button

The rate of disappearance of HBr in the gas phase reaction2HBr(g) → H2(g) + Br2(g)is 0.301 M s-1 at 150°C. The rate of appearanc

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: 0.151

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

$Rate=-\frac{1d[HBr]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[H_2]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}$

Given: $-\frac{d[HBr]}{dt}]=0.301$

Putting in the values we get:

$\frac{0.301}{2}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}$

$+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}=0.151$

Thus the rate of appearance of $Br_2$ is 0.151

Given the following balanced equation, determine the rate of reaction with respect to [SO2].

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Rate = -1/2 Δ[SO<sub>2</sub>]/Δt

so its gonna be (in more simple terms) rate= -1/2Δ(SO2)/Δt

Describe the composition of humus and why it is an effective organic fertilizer.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

Humus, which ranges in colour from brown to black, consists of about 60 percent carbon, 6 percent nitrogen, and smaller amounts of phosphorus and sulfur. As humus decomposes, its components are changed into forms usable by plants.
