Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)
Answer:
-3670.33 J/K
Explanation:
Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.
Mathematically, change of Entropy can be expressed as,
ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1
Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.
ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2
Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.
Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg
Substitute into equation
ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)
ΔH = - 1002000 J.
But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.
Substitute into equation 1
ΔS = -1002000/273
ΔS = -3670.33 J/K
Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C
A scientific model is a simplified version of some phenomenon that takes place in natural systems. A scientific model can be visual (flow charts), graphical, conceptual, or mathematical. These models are used to make predictions about how a set of conditions would change the present scenario in future. Scientific models can explain how the ongoing changes in the environment can show long term affect on our planet like the climate change. Therefore, a scientific model can be used to explain the phenomena like the effect of global air temperatures on the mean sea level around the world.
Answer:
An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide (OH–) ions. In other words, a base increases the concentration of OH– ions in an aqueous solution.
Answer:
2 mol H₂O
Explanation:
With the reaction,
- 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)
1.55 moles of O₂ would react completely with ( 2*1.55 ) 3.1 moles of H₂. There are not as many moles of H₂, thus H₂ is the limiting reactant.
Now we <u>calculate the moles of H₂O produced</u>, <em>starting from the moles of limiting reactant</em>:
- 2.00 mol H₂ *
= 2 mol H₂O
