CaC2

Ca - Group 2 metal
C - Group 4 non-metal

It is an ionic compound. :)

Explanation: Ionic compounds has a giant lattice structure with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between ions of Metal and Non-Metal. This compound require a large amount of energy/heat to overcome.

Covalent compounds has a simple molecular structure with weak intermolecular bonds with Non-metals only. This compound requires little energy/heat to overcome.

An ideal gas contained in a piston-cylinder assembly is compressed isothermally in an internally reversible process.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a) $\Delta S$

b) entropy of the sistem equal to a), entropy of the universe grater than a).

Explanation:

a) The change of entropy for a reversible process:

$\delta S=\frac{\delta Q}{T}$

$\Delta S=\frac{Q}{T}$

The energy balance:

$\delta U=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W$

If the process is isothermical the U doesn't change:

$0=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W$

$\delta Q= \delta W$

$Q= W$

The work:

$W=\int_{V1}^{V2}P*dV$

If it is an ideal gas:

$P=\frac{n*R*T}{V}$

$W=\int_{V1}^{V2}\frac{n*R*T}{V}*dV$

Solving:

$W=n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)$

Replacing:

$\Delta S=\frac{n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)}{T}$

$\Delta S=n*R*ln(V2/V1)}$

Given that it's a compression: V2<V1 and ln(V2/V1)<0. So:

$\Delta S$

b) The entropy change of the sistem will be equal to the calculated in a), but the change of entropy of the universe will be 0 in a) (reversible process) and in b) has to be positive given that it is an irreversible process.
