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.

A glass holds 6 ounces of 60-proof rum (30 alcohol). how much fruit juice must be added to the rum so that the mixture is dilute
Elenna [48]

We need an equation that will relate the concentrated mixture and the diluted one. To solve this we use the equation, 

M1 V1 = M2 V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

M1V1 = M2V2

30 % x 6 oz = 20 %  x V2

V2 = 9 oz 


The volume of the diluted mixture would be 9 oz. Therefore, you will need to add 9 oz - 6 oz = 3 oz of fruit juice to dilute the 30 percent alcohol to 20 percent alcohol.

Which of the following best helps to explain why the electron affinity of Br has a greater magnitude than that of I?
tankabanditka [31]

The reason why  Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than that of I is that there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I.

In the periodic table, there are trends that increase down the group and across the period. Electron affinity is a trend that increases across the period but decreases down the group.

Recall that the ability of an atom to accept an electron depends on the size of the atom. The smaller the atom, the greater the attraction between an added electron and the nucleus.

Since Br is smaller than I, there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I which explains why Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than  I.
