Answer:

Dissolves

Explanation:

Sediment is a rock material that forms where rocks are broken down into smaller pieces or dissolved in water as rocks erode.

They are products of rock weathering.

Weathering can be defined as the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soil.
The first part of the statement describes physical disintegration of rocks where they get broken down into smaller chunks.
The other part simply denotes chemical weathering of rocks which lead to solution of some minerals in the rock.
Both forms are two ways by which rock weathering takes place.

Calculate the entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction below at 350K: N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH3(g) Entropy data: NH3

krek1111 [17]

Answer : The entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction is, -198.3 J/K

Explanation :

We have to calculate the entropy change of reaction $(\Delta S^o)$ .

$\Delta S^o=S_{product}-S_{reactant}$

$\Delta S^o=[n_{NH_3}\times \Delta S^0_{(NH_3)}]-[n_{N_2}\times \Delta S^0_{(N_2)}+n_{H_2}\times \Delta S^0_{(H_2)}]$

where,

$\Delta S^o$ = entropy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

$\Delta S^0{(NH_3)}$ = standard entropy of $NH_3$

$\Delta S^0{(H_2)}$ = standard entropy of $H_2$

$\Delta S^0{(N_2)}$ = standard entropy of $N_2$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (192.5J/K.mole)]-[1mole\times (191.5J/K.mole)+3mole\times (130.6J/K.mole)]$

$\Delta S^o=-198.3J/K$

Therefore, the entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction is, -198.3 J/K

Can someone please help me on #17? I don’t get it :(

Dmitry [639]

Given is the specific heat of water equal to 4.18 Joule per gram per *C.

This means to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 degree Celsius we need 4.18 joule of energy.

Now, look at the question. We are asked that how much amount of energy would be required to raise the temperature of 25 g of water by (54-50) = 4 degree celsius.

To do so we have formula

Q = m C (temperature difference)

The half life for the decay of carbon- is years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon- in a tiny samp

EleoNora [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The half-life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73x10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of woodfrom an archeological dig is measured to be 2.8x10^3 Bq. The activity in a similiar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 3.0x10^3 Bq. Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

570 years

Explanation:

The activity of the fresh sample is taken as the initial activity of the wood sample while the activity measured at a time t is the present activity of the wood artifact. The time taken for the wood to attain its current activity can be calculated from the formula shown in the image attached. The activity at a time t must always be less than the activity of a fresh wood sample. Detailed solution is found in the image attached.

Determine total H for bonds broken and formed, the overall change in H, and the final answer with units. Is it ENDOthermic or EX

Mrac [35]

E(Bonds broken) = 1371 kJ/mol reaction
E(Bonds formed) = 1852 kJ/mol reaction

ΔH = -481 kJ/mol.
The reaction is exothermic.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

2 H-H + O=O → 2 H-O-H

There are two moles of H-H bonds and one mole of O=O bonds in one mole of reactants. All of them will break in the reaction. That will absorb

E(Bonds broken) = 2 × 436 + 499 = 1371 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Breaking bonds) = +1371 kJ/mol

Each mole of the reaction will form two moles of water molecules. Each mole of H₂O molecules have two moles O-H bonds. Two moles of the molecule will have four moles of O-H bonds. Forming all those bond will release

E(Bonds formed) = 2 × 2 × 463 = 1852 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Forming bonds) = - 1852 kJ/mol

Heat of the reaction:

$\Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = \Delta H(\text{Breaking bonds}) + \Delta H(\text{Forming bonds})\\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = +1371 + (-1852) \\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = -481 \; \text{kJ} / \text{mol}$

$\Delta H_{\text{rxn}}$ is negative. As a result, the reaction is exothermic.
