Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A miscible solution is defined as the one in which two or more than two components are soluble with each other.

So, when hexane is added to heptane then both of them will mix with each other and hence they are miscible. This mixing will lead to formation of more number of ions into the solution as a result, more will be the disorder present in the solution.

As entropy is the degree of randomness present.

Hence, we can conclude that a solution of hexane and heptane will lead to an increase in entropy.

Difference between---<br> soap and detergent
guapka [62]

Answer:

"Soaps are made from natural ingredients, such as plant oils (coconut, vegetable, palm, pine) or acids derived from animal fat. Detergents, on the other hand, are synthetic, man-made derivatives. While soap is limited in its applications, detergents can be formulated to include other ingredients for all sorts of cleaning purposes. Perhaps the most common and versatile of these ingredients are surfactants … surface active agents.

The main difference between soap and detergent is the ingredients. Soaps are made with biodegradable ingredients such as oils, lye and fats. ... Both clean clothes well, but detergents are more effective on stains and with brightening clothes. However, soap is kinder on the environment and skin. "

Hope this helps

A star is estimated to have a mass of 2.0 x 10 ^36kg. Assuming it to be a sphere of average radius of 7.0 x 10 ^5 km. Calculate
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

<em>a)</em> <em>1.392 x 10^6 g/cm^3</em>

<em>b) 8.69 x 10^7 lb/ft^3</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

mass of the star m =  2.0 x 10^36 kg

radius of the star (assumed to be spherical) r = 7.0 x 10^5 km = 7.0 x 10^8 m

The density of substance ρ = mass/volume

The volume of the star = volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3}\pi  r^{3}

==> V = \frac{4}{3}*3.142*(7.0*10^8)^{3} = 1.437 x 10^27 m^3

density of the star ρ = (2.0 x 10^36)/(1.437 x 10^27) = 1.392 x 10^9 kg/m^3

in g/cm^3 = (1.392 x 10^9)/1000 = <em>1.392 x 10^6 g/cm^3</em>

in lb/ft^3 =  (1.392 x 10^9)/16.018 = <em>8.69 x 10^7 lb/ft^3</em>
