Why doesn’t a broken wineglass spontaneously fix itself, from a thermodynamic point of view?

Answer:

C.Fixing a wineglass requires a large decrease in entropy.

Explanation:

Decrease in entropy is a non spontaneous process.  

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder. For a process to be spontaneous the disorder or the randomness should increase. In a spontaneous process entropy increase or becomes positive.  

A broken wine glass has more disorder than an unbroken glass. So a broken wine glass does not spontaneously fix itself as that would lead to a decrease in entropy.

Hot water kept in a plate cools down faster then kept in a glass?
ahrayia [7]
It happens so because,
we know that evaporation is a surface phenomenon. If surface area is increased, the rate of evaporation increases. That's why when we pour hot water in a plate it cools faster.

The addition of hydrochloric acid to a silver nitrate solution precipitates silver chloride according to the reaction:
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Enthalpy change for the reaction is -67716 J/mol.

Explanation:

Number of moles of AgNO_{3} in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of AgNO_{3}

= Number of moles of HCl in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of HCl

= \frac{0.100}{1000}\times 50.0 moles

= 0.00500 moles

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of AgNO_{3} reacts with 1 mol of HCl to form 1 mol of AgCl.

So, 0.00500 moles of AgNO_{3} react with 0.00500 moles of HCl to form 0.00500 moles of AgCl

Total volume of solution = (50.0+50.0) mL = 100.0 mL

So, mass of solution = (100.0\times 1.00) g = 100 g

Enthalpy change for the reaction = -(heat released during reaction)/(number of moles of AgCl formed)

= \frac{-m_{solution}\times C_{solution}\times \Delta T_{solution}}{0.00500mol}

= \frac{-100g\times 4.18\frac{J}{g.^{0}\textrm{C}}\times [24.21-23.40]^{0}\textrm{C}}{0.00500mol}

= -67716 J/mol

[m = mass, c = specific heat capacity, \Delta T = change in temperature and negative sign is included as it is an exothermic reaction]

How many moles of h2o would be produced from 1.75 moles of o2 with unlimited c3h6
miv72 [106K]
1.75 (moles O2) × 6 (moles H2O) ÷ 9 (moles O2) = 1.17 (moles H2O)

You have to convert moles of O2 into moles of H2O so it's the number of moles you start with (1.75 O2) × the number of moles from the element you want (6 H20), then ÷ by the number of moles that the element that you already have (9 O2).
