A process at constant T and P can be described as spontaneous if ΔG < 0 and nonspontaneous if ΔG > 0. Over what range of t

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Incomplete question, it is lacking the data it makes reference. The missing data from Chegg is:

2 SO3(g) → 2 SO2(g) + O2(g)

ΔHf° (kJ mol-1) -395.7 -296.8

S° (J K-1 mol-1) 256.8 248.2 205.1

ΔH° = kJ

S° = J K⁻¹

Explanation:

The method to solve this problem calls for the use of the Gibbs standard free energy change:

ΔG = ΔrxnH - TΔSrxn

We know a reaction is spontaneous when ΔG is < 0, so to answer this question we need to solve for the temperature, T, at which ΔG becomes negative.

Now as mentioned in the hint, we need to determine ΔrxnH and ΔSrxn, which are given by

ΔrxnH = ∑ ν x ΔfHº products - ∑ ν x ΔfHº reactants

where ν is the stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

For ΔS we have likewise

ΔrxnS = ∑ ν x ΔSº products - ∑ ν x ΔSº reactants

Thus,

ΔrxnH(kJmol⁻¹) = 2 x (-296.8) - 2 x ( -395.7 ) = 197.8 kJ

ΔrxnS ( JK⁻¹) = 2 x 248.2 + 205.1 - 2 x 256.8 = 187.9 JK⁻¹ = 0.1879 kJK⁻¹

So ΔG kJ = 197.8 - T(0.1879)

and the reaction will become spontaneous when the term T(0.1879) becomes greater that 197.8,

0 = 197.8 - 0.1879 T ⇒ T = 1052 K

so the reaction is spontaneous at temperatures greater than 1052 K (780 ºC)

Answer:

Explanation:

Molarity = 0.010M

Volume = 2.5L

Applying mole-concept,

0.010mole = 1L

X mole = 2.5L

X = (0.010 × 2.5) / 1

X = 0.025moles

0.025moles is present in 2.5L of NaOH solution.

Molar mass of NaOH = (23 + 16 + 1) = 40g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.025 × 40

Mass = 1g

1g is present in 2.5L of NaOH solution

What are the limitations of the van der Waals equation.

jeka57 [31]

Limitations of Van der waal's equation. (i) The value of 'b' is not constant but varies with pressure and temperature. (ii) The value of is not equal to 3b, but actually it is equal to, in some case; and in other cases 2b. (iii) The value of is not equal to but it is usually more than 3 for most of the gases.

A geochemist in the field takes a 36.0 mL sample of water from a rock pool lined with crystals of a certain mineral compound X.

NeTakaya

Answer:

solubility of X in water at 17.0 $^{0}\textrm{C}$ is 0.11 g/mL.

Explanation:

Yes, the solubility of X in water at 17.0 $^{0}\textrm{C}$ can be calculated using the information given.

Let's assume solubility of X in water at 17.0 $^{0}\textrm{C}$ is y g/mL

The geochemist ultimately got 3.96 g of crystals of X after evaporating the diluted solution made by diluting the 36.0 mL of stock solution.

So, solubility of X in 1 mL of water = y g

Hence, solubility of X in 36.0 mL of water = 36y g

So, 36y = 3.96

or, y = $\frac{3.96}{36}$ = 0.11

Hence solubility of X in water at 17.0 $^{0}\textrm{C}$ is 0.11 g/mL.
