Freezing the substance and condensing it will not increase the entropy of a substance. In fact, dissolving the substance into water is the only way to increase the entropy of a certain substance. The entropy increases because it diversify with each other.

The pressure on 150 mL of a gas is increased from 500 mm Hg to 700 mm Hg at constant temperature. What is the new volume of the

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Option A. 107 mL

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 150 mL

Initial pressure (P₁) = 500 mmHg

Final pressure (P₂) = 700 mmHg

Temperature = constant

Final volume (V₂) =?

The final volume of the gas can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

500 × 150 = 700 × V₂

75000 = 700 × V₂

Divide both side by 700

V₂ = 75000 / 700

V₂ = 107 mL

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 107 mL.

"A crosslinked copolymer consists of 57 wt% ethylene (C2H4) repeat units and 43 wt% propylene (C3H6) repeat units. Determine the

ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

Percentage ethylene by weight = 57%

Percentage propylene by weight = 43%

Suppose in 100 grams of polymer:

Mass of ethylene = 57 g

Mass of propylene = 43 g

Moles of ethylene = $\frac{57 g}{28 g/mol}=2.036 mol$

Moles of propylene = $\frac{43g}{42g/mol}=1.024 mol$

1 mole = $N_A =6.022\times 10^{23}$ molecules/ atoms

Units of ethylene = $2.036 mol\times N_A$

Units of propylene = $1.024 mol\times N_A$

a) Fraction of ethylene units:

$=\frac{2.036 mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{509}{765}$

b ) Fraction of propylene units:

$=\frac{1.024mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{256}{765}$

2. How many moles are in 8.30 x 1023 molecules of H2O?

daser333 [38]

Answer:

<h2>1.38 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{8.30 \times {10}^{23} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } = \frac{8.30}{6.02} \\ = 1.3787 37...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.38 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
