Answer:
A) It must be negative
Explanation:
A spontaneous reaction in Chemistry is that which is proceeding in a particular direction without the intervention of any external effect. As a spontaneous reaction proceeds (which can be relatively slow), free energy ΔG, which is the available energy for work, is released.
Gibbs free energy, ΔG, is released during a spontaneous process and hence the ΔG is negative because the reactants have more free energy than the products, hence, no energy input is needed for the reaction to proceed forward but rather an energy output. This is what makes a negative ΔG depict a spontaneous reaction.
Answer:
the rock layers of the Grand Canyon
Explanation:
Steno's law are laws that applied to sedimentary rocks. These laws helps in understanding sedimentary sequences.
Sedimentary rocks are derived from the deposition of pre-existing rocks in basins. In order to understand some important relationships between these rock layers, Steno's law offer a good insight.
Steno's law are often applied when we want to do relative dating of rock layers. Some of the laws are:
- Law of superposition of strata
- Law of original horizontality
- Law of lateral continuity
- Law of inclusion
- Law of fossil and fauna succession
These laws helps to interpret sedimentary rock sequences better.
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
Answer:
The mass flow rate at the exit of the 2 meter diameter pipe is 1442 kg/s
Explanation:
If the oil is flowing in the 1m diameter pipe at 0.8 m/s, we can calculate the flow as
The mass flow is
The mass flow rate at the exit of the 2 meter diameter pipe is
1/8=(1/2)^3 and the half life of radon is 3.8days
Half life is the time it takes for half of any amount of a radioactive substance to decay into something else.
Therefore for a sample of radon to decay to 1/8 of its original amount, it would take 3 x 3.8days=11.4 days
