Answer:

Option b, The change in free energy of the reaction (ΔG)

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is a measure of amount of usable energy in the system.

It is related with enthalpy (H), entropy (S) and temprature (T) as:

G = H - TS

The Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) provide spontaneity of a chemical reaction.

If ΔG is negative, then reaction is spontaneous that means reaction is moving towards forward direction.

If ΔG is positive, then reaction is non-spontaneous that means reaction is moving in backward direction.

If ΔG is zero, then reaction is at equilibrium.

Change in enthalpy only gives informtion about heat involed in a chemical reaction, it does not give information about direction of the reaction.

So, among the given options, option b is correct.

The reaction is not balanced

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)

Required

The number of atoms

Solution

In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms in the compound that reacts (the reactants and products) will have the same number

Reactants : Fe(s)+O₂(g)

Fe = 2 atoms

O = 3 x 2 = 6 atoms

Products : Fe₂O₃(s)

Fe = 2 x 2 = 4 atoms

O = 2 x 3 = 6 atoms

The reaction is not balanced because the number of Fe atoms is not the same

The balanced reaction should be:

4Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)

What happens when stress builds at faults? Select three options
Stels [109]

Answer:

When Stress builds up at faults, the 3 options that are correct and can happen

- Rock can bend and break;

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

Explanation:

This is a Geography question

- Rock can bend and break

When Stress builds up at faults, it leads to a geologic activity that causes a lot of pressure that lead to the movement of the earth's crust. The movement creates such intense pressure on the rocks, that, with time, they twist, bend, and break due to this pressure.

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

As explained earlier, this intense pressure can lead to rocks breaking, as these rocks break inside the earth's crust, the gaps that come into play after the breaking of the rocks causes the remaining rocks to adjust, releasing a lot of force, and subsequently creating earthquakes.

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

As explained earlier, the forces resulting from these intense pressures, affect the earth's rocks. They move them both vertically and horizontally, change their shape and eventually break them.

Hope this Helps!!!
