Hello!
The initial mass of
Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is 23,08 g
The chemical reaction for the dehydrating of
Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is the following:
MgSO₄·7H₂O(s) + Δ → MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(g)
We know that the sample loses 11,80 g upon heating.
That mass is the mass of Water that is released as vapor. Knowing that piece of information, we can apply the following conversion factor to go from the mass of water to the moles of water and back to the mass of the original compound (mi).

Have a nice day!
Answer:
First, the microwaves transmit kinetic energy to the water molecules of the food, heating the water molecules. Only, those that are not very deep into the food.
Second, the hot water molecules transmit heat by conduction to the other parts of the food.
Explanation:
1) Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation. The same as any wave, they carry energy.
2) The wave length of microwaves are in the range of 0.001 mm to 1 m (shorter than radio waves and longer than infrared)
3) The microwaves of an oven, used to heat food, have a wave length aroun 12 cm.
4) The microwaves transmit energy to the water molecules in the food, by increasing the kinetic energy of water molecules. As result, the water molecules get hotter. Microwaves only penetrate about 1 cm inside the food (a potato for example) and from that the heat is transferred by conduction to the inner parts of the food.

Answer:
The correct answer is entropy change of the surrounding plus the entropy change of the system must be positive.
Explanation:
The term entropy is a state function.Entropy can be defined as the disorder or randomness of the molecules in a system.
A spontaneous reaction is a type of reaction which deals with the release of free energy.The change of free energy in case of spontaneous reaction is always negative.
According to the second law of thermodynamics a spontaneous reaction will occur in a system if the total entropy of both system and surrounding increases during the reaction.
