Answer: Option (D)

Explanation: In order to support the theory of continental drift, evidences has been found such as, the same rock types were found in different continents. Similar plant and animal fossils have been found in different continents.

But the salt analysis from the ocean water rock samples were not a part of this theory because rocks containing similar amount of salt does not help in supporting the continental drift theory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

"What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0"
Artyom0805 [142]

Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)

Answer:

-3670.33 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.

Mathematically,  change of Entropy can be expressed as,

ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2

Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.

Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg

Substitute into equation

ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)

ΔH = - 1002000 J.

But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = -1002000/273

ΔS = -3670.33 J/K

Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C

If 33.6 grams of kcl are dissolved in 192 grams of water, what is the concentration of the solution in percent by mass? 21.2% kc
trapecia [35]
Ms ( mass of solute): 33,6g
mss (mass of solution): 33,6+192g = 225,6g
__________________
C = ms/mss × 100%
C = 33.6/225.6 × 100%
C = 14,89% ≈ 14,9%
