Answer: B . particle size

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that a molecular sieve is a device, whose composition allows the absorbtion of molecules that are small enough to pass through its pores, since it is made up of small pores of a precise and uniform size.

Thus, very small molecules manage to pass through the pores of the sieve, while large ones do not.

So, based on this premise, a molecular sieve separates the substances by their size.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Is it possible for the entropy of both a closed system and its surroundings to decrease during the process?
iren [92.7K]

Only when heat is transferred from the system to its surroundings does a closed system suffer a decrease in entropy.

Only when heat is transferred from the system to its surroundings does a closed system suffer a decrease in entropy. Every internally reversible operation in a closed system generates entropy. Entropy remains constant in an adiabatic and internally reversible process of a closed system. Isolated systems' entropy cannot diminish.

When a system is not isolated but is in contact with its surroundings, the entropy of the open system may drop, requiring a balancing rise in the entropy of the surroundings. During a process, the entropy of an isolated system constantly increases, or in the case of a reversible process, remains constant (it never decreases).

Converting the following mm Hg (torr) to standard
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Explanation:

Given:

20.5 torr

78.6 torr

225 torr

Change into atm

Computation:

We know that;

1 torr = 0.00131579 atm

So,

1. 20.5 torr

= 20.5 x 0.00131579 atm

= 0.02697

= 0.027 atm (Approx)

2. 78.6 torr

= 78.6 x 0.00131579 atm

= 0.103090

= 0.103 atm (Approx)

3. 225 torr

= 225 x 0.00131579 atm

= 0.2960

= 0.296 atm (Approx)
