Which statement concerning spontaneous chemical reactions is true?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]3 years ago
7 0
I believe the correct answer is b since a spontaneous reaction is self sufficient and should not need an ongoing out side source in order to proceed once it is started.  

a is false since some reactions that occur are relatively slow such as iron reacting with oxygen to make rust.

c is false since most reactions involve an energy change of some sort which is why we classify them as endothermic or exothermic.

d is false since catalysts help speed up reactions but do not really affect a the Gibbs free energy value which determines the spontaneity of the reaction.

4. Juan tiene un cilindro de 40 libras herméticamente cerrado con gas propano y lo conecta mediante una válvula a otro cilindro
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Ver explicacion

Explanation:

Cuando el cilindro de 40 libras está conectado al cilindro de 100 libras, generamos una presión que continúa hasta que los dos cilindros alcanzan la misma presión de gas en equilibrio. Recuerde que el cilindro de 100 libras estaba inicialmente vacío. Esto significa que su presión inicial es 0. El cilindro de 40 libras ya estaba lleno, por lo que dividimos esta cantidad en dos para tener en cuenta su distribución entre los dos cilindros.

Ahora tenemos 20 libras de gas propano presentes en cada cilindro. La implicación de esto es que, en el cilindro de 100 libras, necesitamos 80 libras adicionales para completar las 100 libras.

The half of the moon facing the sun is always lit, but the different phases happen because:
zvonat [6]

Answer:

we only see parts of the lit side as the moon goes around the earth

Explanation:

Unlike the sun, the moon orbits the Earth. This is the reason why we see the <em>different phases of the moon.</em> The reflection of the moon is being illuminated back to us with the help of the sun. So, as the moon circles the Earth, we only see parts of the lit side. Such changes helps us see the moon in different phases such as<em> </em>the <em>Third Quarter, Crescent, New Moon, Full Moon, etc.</em>

For example, during "Full Moon," <em>the moon's entire face is lit up by the sun</em>. Thus, we see the entire moon's lit portion.

Thus, this explains the answer.

Germanium is a group 4A semiconductor. The addition of a dopant atom (group 3A element) that has fewer valence electrons than th
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Doping with galium or indium will yield a p-type semiconductor while doping with arsenic, antimony or phosphorus will yield an n-type semiconductor.

Explanation:

Doping refers to improving the conductivity of a semiconductor by addition of impurities. A trivalent impurity leads to p-type semiconductor while a pentavalent impurity leads to an n-type semiconductor.

Automotive airbags inflate when a sample of sodium azide, NaN3, is very rapidly decomposed.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

148 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the decomposition of sodium azide

2 NaN₃ ⇒ 2 Na + 3 N₂

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 95.8 g of N₂

The molar mass of N₂ is 28.01 g/mol.

95.8 g × 1 mol/28.01 g = 3.42 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of NaN₃ needed to form 3.42 moles of N₂

The molar ratio of NaN₃ to N₂ is 2:3. The moles of NaN₃ needed are 2/3 × 3.42 mol = 2.28 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2.28 moles of NaN₃

The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol.

2.28 mol × 65.01 g/mol = 148 g
