Answer:
An increase in entropy
Explanation:
In ice, the molecules are very well ordered because of the H-bonds. As ice melts, the intermolecular forces are broken (requires energy), but the order is interrupted (so entropy increases). Water is more random than ice, so ice spontaneously melts at room temperature.
Just think about this rationally. Melting ice (or anything) will require heat put in (this is called the latent heat of fusion), so you automatically know that the change in enthalpy is going to be positive. In order to make the reaction spontaneous, delta G, the Gibbs free energy has to be negative. So now look at the formula Delta(G) = Delta(H) - T*Delta*(S). If you know that g is negative, and H is positive, then it is only possible if -T*Delta(S) is negative. If that is positive, then Delta(S) has to be positive. So theres your answer :). An increase in entropy
THE KINETIC MOLECULAR THEORY STATES THAT ALL PARTICLES OF AN IDEAL GAS ARE IN CONSTANT MOTION AND EXHIBITS PERFECT ELASTIC COLLISIONS.
Explanation:
An ideal gas is an imaginary gas whose behavior perfectly fits all the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory. In reality, gases are not ideal, but are very close to being so under most everyday conditions.
The kinetic-molecular theory as it applies to gases has five basic assumptions.
- Gases consist of very large numbers of tiny spherical particles that are far apart from one another compared to their size.
- Gas particles are in constant rapid motion in random directions.
- Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the container walls are elastic collisions.
- The average kinetic energy of gas particles is dependent upon the temperature of the gas.
- There are no forces of attraction or repulsion between gas particles.
First, we need to get moles of NaOH:
when moles NaOH = volume * molarity
= 0.02573L * 0.11 M
= 0.0028 moles
from the reaction equation:
H3PO4(aq) + 3NaOH → 3 H2O(l) + Na3PO4(aq)
we can see that when 1 mol H3PO4 reacts with→ 3 mol NaOH
∴ X mol H3PO4 reacts with → 0.0028 moles NaOH
∴ moles H3PO4 = 0.0028 mol / 3 = 9.4 x 10^-4 mol
now we can get the concentration of H3PO4:
∴[H3PO4] = moles H2PO4 / volume
= 9.4 x 10^-4 / 0.034 L
= 0.028 M
Answer:
Nuclear fission
Explanation:
All nuclear reactors in operation are based on the principle of nuclear fission of Uranium nuclide to produce energy. These is produced is being controlled and is used in heating water to steam. The steam is then harnessed to drive or power steam turbines which is used for the generation of electricity.
