Answer:

(a) ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K; ΔS_{sur}  = -2.881 J/K; total change in entropy = 0

(b)ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K; ΔS_{sur}  = 0 ; total change in entropy = 2.881 J/K

(c) ΔS_{sys}  = 0 ; ΔS_{sur}  = 0 ; total change in entropy = 0

Explanation:

In the given problem, we need to calculate the change in the entropy of the system and also the change in the entropy of the surroundings, and the resulting total change in entropy, when a sample of nitrogen gas of mass 14 g at 298 K and 1.00 bar doubles its volume. We have the following variable:

mass (m) = 14 g

Temperature = 298 K

Pressure = 1.00 bar

Initial volume = V_{1}

Final volume = V_{2} = 2V_{1}

(a) Change in entropy of the system ΔS_{sys} = nRIn\frac{V_{2} }{V_{1} }

where R = 8.314 J/(mol*K)

n = number of moles = mass/molar mass = 14/ 28 = 0.5 moles

ΔS_{sys} = 0.5*8.314*ln2 = 2.881 J/K

Change in entropy of the surrounding ΔS_{sur} = -2.881 J/K

Therefore, for a reversible process, the total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 2.881 - 2.881 = 0

(b) Because entropy is a state function, we use the same procedure as in part (a). Thus, ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K

Since surrounding does not change in this process ΔS_{sur} = 0.

total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 2.881 - 0 = 2.88 J/K

(c) For an adiabatic reversible expansion, q(rev) = 0, thus:

ΔS_{sys}  = 0

Since heat energy is not transferred from the system to the surrounding

ΔS_{sur}  = 0

total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 0

PLEASE HELP! sketch the structure of the nitrogen-containing product that is formed when ethylamine reacts with water​
Aleksandr [31]

First of all the ethylamine is base so will be react with water to take the proton from the water (H⁺) , because water is amphoteric will react with bases as acid and acids as a base, so the water in this case will react as an acid and will gives the proton to the base.

In the picture you may see the chemical equation and the structure of the products.

A greenhouse is filled with air that cotains more carbon dixoide than normal air has. How might phothsyphness and plant growth b
vekshin1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We know that photosynthesis involves the combination of carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight to yield glucose.

If the atmosphere is rich in carbon dioxide such as  in a green house where air is filled with carbon dioxide, the rate of photosynthesis is increased.

As the rate of photosynthesis is increased, the growth of plants is also increased.

Hence, in a greenhouse where the air contains more carbon dioxide, the rate of plant growth increases.
