An article in a magazine denies that Earth is warming and climate change is occurring. The writer reports that this season was t

he snowiest winter on record for the Northeast, with lower than average temperatures for the region. Because of the low temperatures, the writer concludes that climate change cannot possibly be occurring. What question should you ask the writer to clarify whether his stance on climate change is scientifically sound? An article in a magazine denies that Earth is warming and climate change is occurring.

First off, you should be looking at the whole world, not just the northeastern US. Are other regions warming? Can you provide proof that simply because the northeast received a lot of snow and low temperatures, climate change is not a viable theory?

I2(g) + Cl2(g)2ICl(g) Using standard thermodynamic data at 298K, calculate the entropy change for the surroundings when 1.62 mol
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The change in entropy of the surrounding is -146.11 J/K.

Explanation:

Enthalpy of formation of iodine gas = \Delta H_f_{(I_2)}=62.438 kJ/mol

Enthalpy of formation of chlorine gas = \Delta H_f_{(Cl_2)}=0 kJ/mol

Enthalpy of formation of ICl gas = \Delta H_f_{(ICl)}=17.78 kJ/mol

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]

For the given chemical reaction:

I_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2ICl(g),\Delta H_{rxn}=?

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(ICl)})]-[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(I_2)})+(1\times \Delta H_f_{(Cl_2)})]

=[2\times 17.78 kJ/mol]-[1\times 0 kJ/mol+1\times 62.436 kJ/mol]=-26.878 kJ/mol

Enthaply change when 1.62 moles of iodine gas recast:

\Delta H= \Delta H_{rxn}\times 1.62 mol=(-26.878 kJ/mol)\times 1.62 mol=-43.542 kJ

Entropy of the surrounding = \Delta S^o_{surr}=\frac{\Delta H}{T}

=\frac{-43.542 kJ}{298 K}=\frac{-43,542 J}{298 K}=-146.11 J/K

1 kJ = 1000 J

The change in entropy of the surrounding is -146.11 J/K.

What are the base units the SI units are based on?<br> A-10<br> B-100<br> C-1,000<br> D-1
Olegator [25]

Answer:

A-10

Explanation:

In the SI, designations of multiples and subdivision of any unit may be arrived at by combining with the name of the unit the prefixes deka, hecto, and kilo meaning, respectively, 10, 100, and 1000, and deci, centi, and milli, meaning, respectively, one-tenth, one-hundredth, and one-thousandth.

How many moles of Fluorine (F2) are<br><br> needed to completely react 8.0<br><br> moles of NF3?
Anna [14]

Answer:

12 moles of F₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of F₂ needed to produce 8 moles of NF₃. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, Xmol of F₂ will react to produce 8 moles of NF₃ i.e

Xmol of F₂ = (3 × 8)/2

Xmol of F₂ = 12 moles

Thus, 12 moles of F₂ is needed for the reaction.

Chemical changes
Alex777 [14]
The correct answer is that chemical changes form new compounds. Chemical change is a change where the substance changes in identity or form new substances after undergoing a process. On the other hand, a physical change is a change in the properties of matter that does not change the identity of the substance.
