Suppose that, in a given reaction, the enthalpy (H) increases by 10 units, and the disorder (TS) increases by 12 units. By how m

any units did the Gibbs free energy change?When I did the calculation it came out to 2 units but the answer is -2 units. Why is that? Also, is T(delta)S treated as one single unit or separate?

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is defined by enthalpy of the system minus the product of the temperature and entropy and represented by the formula below:

G = H - TS where G = Gibbs free energy, H = enthalpy and T =  temperature and S = entropy

change in entropy is defined by the formula below

ΔG = ΔH - Δ(TS)  if the temperature is not constant, but if the temperature is constant then

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

in according to the question (TS) is treated together.

to the solution

increase in H = 10 units , increase in the product of temperature and entropy = 12 units

ΔG = 10 - 12 = -2

What can help overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid
IgorC [24]

Answer: D. An increase in entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an disordered arrangement to an ordered arrangement, the entropy is said to increase and vice versa.

For a reaction to be spontaneous, the enthalpy of the solution must decrease and the entropy must increase.

To overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid  solute to dissolve in water, an increase in entropy would make the reaction spontaneous as the system would move to a more disordered state.

Calculate the number of moles in 7.41 X 1017 atoms Ag.
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

1.23x10^-6 mole

Explanation:

A clear understanding of Avogadro's hypothesis proved that 1mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 atoms. This indicates that 1mole of Ag contains 6.02x10^23 atoms.

Now, 1f 1mole of Ag contains 6.02x10^23 atoms, then Xmol of Ag will contain 7.41x10^17 atoms i.e

Xmol of Ag = 7.41x10^17/6.02x10^23 = 1.23x10^-6 mole
