If you stand up in a rowboat and take a step towards the dock, you may fall in the water. Explain what happens in this situation

. How is it similar to what happens when you take a step on land? How is it different?

For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.  Your foot pushes on the boat and the boat pushes against the water which doesn't have much friction, so the boat moves backward instead of you moving forward.  On land, the land pushes back up at you with the same force so you move forward.

1) Why are the antimony and beryllium ions so small? Differentiate between the causes.
Viefleur [7K]
1. For this question, the adjective small must be percepted in a relative sense. This is because it is not the smallest ion (that would be hydrogen). It could be that the antimony and beryllium ions are smaller compared to their neutral forms. This is because they donate electrons when ionized. As a result, the electrons are reduced, so does the electron cloud which makes the radius much smaller.

2. The periodic table is arranged in terms of increasing atomic number. For neutral atoms, the number of protons (atomic number) is equal to the number of electrons. So, the farther we go down the table, the higher the atomic number. The higher the atomic number, the bigger the electron cloud which makes the atomic radius bigger. Because by definition, atomic radius is the length from the nucleus to the farthest electron from the nucleus.

Calculate the standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol, C2H5OH, at 285.0 K, given that the molar heat capacity at constant pr
MArishka [77]

Answer: The standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol is 0.275 J/K

Explanation:

C_2H_5OH(l)\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5OH(g)

Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

For a phase change, the reaction remains in equilibrium, thus \Delta G=0

\Delta H=T\Delta S

Given: Temperature = 285.0 K

\Delta H=78.3J/mol

Putting the values in the equation:

78.3J=285.0K\times \Delta S

\Delta S=0.275J/K

Thus  the standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol is 0.275 J/K
