Answer:

S = 172.69 J/K

Explanation:

For a closed system, the entropy is given as the natural logarithm of microstates.

The number of particles (grains of sand); N = 25

The number of boxes (compartments); M = 1000

Entropy is the logarithm of number of microstates; Thus,

S = In ψ

However, the number of microstates is given by the formula;

ψ = Mⁿ

Thus, S = In Mⁿ

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

S = In (1000)^(25)

S = 172.69 J/K

Answer:

The entropy of the closed system is

S = (1.58 × 10⁻²¹) J/K

Explanation:

Entropy of a system is proportional to the number of different microstates. The constant of proportionality is the Boltzmann's constant.

S = K In W

K = Boltzmann's constant = (1.381 × 10⁻²³) J/K.

Number of different microstates possible for distributing 25 distinguishable grains of sand among 1000 distinguishable equal sized compartments with only one grain per compartment = ¹⁰⁰C₂₅ = (4.7642 × 10⁴⁹)

S = (1.381 × 10⁻²³) In (4.7642 × 10⁴⁹)

S = 1.381 × 10⁻²³ × 114.4

S = (1.58 × 10⁻²¹) J/K

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer: 5.36×10-3kg/h

Where 10-3 is 10 exponential 3 or 10 raised to the power of -3.

Explanation:using the formula

M =JAt = -DAt×Dc/Dx

Where D is change in the respective variables. Insulting the values we get,

=5.1 × 10-8 × 0.13 × 3600 × 2.9 × 0.31 / 4×10-3.

=5.36×10-3kg/h
