Answer:
The correct answer is B. It is spontaneous only at low temperatures.
Explanation:
In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure.
The spontaneity of a reaction is given by the equation:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
where:
ΔH: enthalpy variation
T: absolute temperature
ΔS: entropy variation
As the reaction is exothermic, ΔH<0
As the reaction order increases (the reagents are solid and gas and their product is solid), ΔS<0
Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous when ΔG is negative.
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
That is, the entropy term must be smaller than the enthalpy term.
Hence, the reaction will be spontaneous only at low temperatures.
For #4 first find the molar mass(M) of copper then use that and the mass (m) n=m/M to find moles(n) using moles and the volumes find the concentration using c=n/V
No it depends on the molecules strength
The stirring breaks it up faster, the amount of water doesn’t effect it, it just gives it space to spread/dissolve - I think.
