Answer: A) SO_2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+Cl_2(g)

Explanation: Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

A) SO_2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+Cl_2(g)

1 mole of gaseous reactant is converting to 2 gaseous products, thus the entropy increases.

B) PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_5(g)

2 moles of gaseous reactants are converting to 1 gaseous products, thus the entropy decreases.

C) 2CO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)

3 moles of gaseous reactants are converting to 1 gaseous product, thus the entropy decreases.

D. C_2H_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)

2 moles of gaseous reactants are converting to 1 gaseous product, thus the entropy decreases.

N204(0) + 2NO2(g)

setup 1 : to the right

setup 2 : equilibrium

setup 3 : to the left

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The reaction quotient (Q) : determine a reaction has reached equilibrium

For reaction :

aA+bB⇔cC+dD

\tt Q=\dfrac{C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

Comparing Q with K( the equilibrium constant) :

K is the product of ions in an equilibrium saturated state  

Q is the product of the ion ions from the reacting substance  

Q <K = solution has not occurred precipitation, the ratio of the products to reactants is less than the ratio at equilibrium. The reaction moved to the right (products)

Q = Ksp = saturated solution, exactly the precipitate will occur, the system at equilibrium

Q> K = sediment solution, the ratio of the products to reactants is greater than the ratio at equilibrium. The reaction moved to the left (reactants)

Keq = 6.16 x 10⁻³

Q for reaction N₂O₄(0) ⇒ 2NO₂(g)

\tt Q=\dfrac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}

Setup 1 :

\tt Q=\dfrac{0.0064^2}{0.098}=0.000418=4.18\times 10^{-4}

Q<K⇒The reaction moved to the right (products)

Setup 2 :

\tt Q=\dfrac{0.0304^2}{0.15}=0.00616=6.16\times 10^{-3}

Q=K⇒the system at equilibrium

Setup 3 :

\tt Q=\dfrac{0.230^2}{0.420}=0.126

Q>K⇒The reaction moved to the left (reactants)

How many grams of water can be produced when 8.73 moles of benzene (C6H6) react with excess oxygen?. . Unbalanced equation: C6H6
Alex_Xolod [135]
<span>2 C6H6 + 15 O2 = 12 CO2 + 6 H2O
</span>
2 moles C6H6 -------------------- 6 moles H2O
8.73 moles C6H6 --------------- ( moles H2O)

( moles H2O) = 8.73 x 6 / 2

( moles H2O) = 52.38 / 2

= 26.19 moles of H2O

Molar mass H2O = 18.00 g/mol

1 mole -------------- 18.00 g
26.19 moles ----- ( mass of H2O)

mass of H2O = 26. 19 x 18.00 => 471.42 g of water

hope this helps!
