What is the definition of heat energy?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. The transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects is called heat

For each process, predict the sign on the entropy change and write a sentence or two to explain how to make this prediction with
MrRa [10]

Answer: a. A solid melts: \Delta S=+ve

b. a vapor is converted to solid: \Delta S=-ve

c. a liquid freezes:  \Delta S=-ve

d. A solid sublimes:  \Delta S=+ve

e.  a vapor condenses to liquid :  \Delta S=-ve

f. a liquid boils:   \Delta S=+ve

g. dissolving a tablespoon of salt in water:  \Delta S=+ve

h. combustion of gasoline:  \Delta S=+ve

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy change is negative and vice versa.

a. A solid melts: The solid is converting to liquid, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is positive.

b. a vapor is converted to solid: The gas  is converting to solid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is negative.

c. a liquid freezes: The liquid is converting to solid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is negative.

d. A solid sublimes: The solid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is positive.

e.  a vapor condenses to liquid : The gas  is converting to liquid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is negative.

f. a liquid boils: The liquid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is positive.

g. dissolving a tablespoon of salt in water: The solid is converting to ions , thus the randomness is increasing as the ions can move freely. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is positive.

h. combustion of gasoline: The liquid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change (\Delta S) is positive.

Tell me What is an element?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Any substance that cannot be decomposed into simpler substances by ordinary chemical processes.

Another definition:

An element is the simplest pure substance which can neither be split nor built up from other simpler substances by chemical reaction
