Answer:

m_{Ag}=2,265.9g

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the definition of entropy in a random mixture is:

\Delta S=-n_TR\Sigma[x_i*ln(x_i)]

For this silver-gold mixture we write:

\Delta S=-(n_{Au}+n_{Ag})R\Sigma[\frac{n_{Au}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} *ln(\frac{n_{Au}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} )+\frac{n_{Ag}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} *ln(\frac{n_{Ag}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} )]

By knowing the moles of gold:

n_{Au}=100g*\frac{1mol}{197g} =0.508mol

It is possible to write the aforementioned formula in terms of the variable x representing the moles of silver:

20\frac{J}{mol}=-(0.508+x)8.314\frac{J}{mol*K} \Sigma[\frac{0.508}{0.508+x} *ln(\frac{0.508}{0.508+x} )+\frac{x}{0.508+x} *ln(\frac{x}{0.508+x} )]

Which can be solved via Newton-Raphson or a solver software, in this case, I will provide you the answer:

x=n_{Ag}=21.0molAg

So the mass is:

m_{Ag}=21.0mol*\frac{107.9g}{1mol}\\ \\m_{Ag}=2,265.9g

Best regards!

The energy produced when nucleons fuse together is called the: Select the correct answer below:
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Option C (nuclear binding energy) is the appropriate choice.

Explanation:

  • At either the nuclear scale, the nuclear binding energy seems to be the energy needed to remove and replace a structure of the atom itself into the characterize elements (to counteract the intense nuclear arsenal).
  • Nuclear warheads (bargaining power) bind everything together neutrons as well as protons within an elementary particle.

Some other options in question aren't relevant to the particular instance. So that the option preceding will also be the right one.

Describe the properties of alkali metals. Based on their electronic arrangement, explain whether they exist alone in nature.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

- They are highly reactive metals

- They have low electro negativity

- They have low ionization energy

- They don't exist alone in nature

- They have low densities

Explanation:

Alkali metals are the elements in group 1 of the periodic table. They include Sodium, Lithium, Potassium e.t.c.

Due to the fact they have one atom in their outermost shell, they are very unstable because they easily react with other elements and are therefore don't exist alone in nature but combined with other elements for this same reason.

Since alkali metals don't easily attract other elements due to it's lone pair in the outer most shell, it can be said to have low electro negativity.

Also, they don't need energy to discharge their electrons since they are highly reactive due to their lone pair in the outermost shell and so we say they have low ionization energy.

Due to this reason, they also have low densities.
