Answer:

a. Negative

b. Positive

c. Negative

d. zero

Explanation:

Entropy is measure of disorder. Positive entropy implies that a system is becoming more disordered. The opposite is true.

(a) N2(g)+3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) Negative because the system is becoming less disordered since the number of gaseous moles is decreasing

(b) CaCO3(s)→CaO(s)+CO2(g)  Positive because a solid produces a gas which is more disorder therefore there is an increase in entropy

(c) 3C2H2(g)→C6H6(g) Negative because the number of moles of a gas decrease meaninng there is less disorder

(d) Al2O3(s)+3H2(g) → 2Al(s)+3H2O(g) zero because the gaseous moles do not change

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

For the control experiment: 0.0552 M of aqueous solution of erioglaucine has absorbance of 0.035 M\\

From Lambert-Beer's law we know:

Absorbance = e\cdot c \cdot l\\

Here; e is the molar absorptivity coefficient of erioglaucine

l = length of cuvette in which the solution is taken = 1 cm

A sorbance by the erioglaucine = total absorbance - absorbance by distilled water = 0.331-0.019 = 0.312

So; by putting the values in the above equation; we get:

0.312 = 0.0552 M \cdot e\cdot~1cm\\

So; e = \frac{0.331}{0.0552} M^{-1}cm^{-1}= 5.65 M^{-1}cm^{-1}

The molar absorptivity coefficient of erioglaucine is 5.65 M^{-1}cm^{-1}\\

The absorbance of erioglaucine in distilled water (contaminated with metal ions) is: 0 .217

The absorbance of distilled water is 0.019

So; absorbance of erioglaucine itself is : 0.217-0.019 = 0.198

Again using Lambert Beer law; we get:

A= e\cdot c\cdot l

0.198 = 5.65 M^{-1}cm^{-1} \cdot  c \cdot  1 cm ( c = concentrartion)

c = 0.198/5.65 M = 0.035 M

The concentration of the erioglaucine is 0.035 M\\

A mixture of methane and carbon dioxide gases contains methane at a partial pressure of 431 mm Hg and carbon dioxide at a
KatRina [158]

Answer:

XCH₄ = 0.461

XCO₂ = 0.539

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of methane (pCH₄): 431 mmHg
  • Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO₂): 504 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate the total pressure in the container

We will sum both partial pressures.

P = pCH₄ + pCO₂

P = 431 mmHg + 504 mmHg = 935 mmHg

Step 3: Calculate the mole fraction of each gas

We will use the following expression.

Xi = pi / P

XCH₄ = pCH₄/P = 431 mmHg/935 mmHg = 0.461

XCO₂ = pCO₂/P = 504 mmHg/935 mmHg = 0.539

In the following reaction 8 grams of ethane are burned and 11 grams of CO2 are collected. What is the percent yield? 2C2H6+7O2=
Alika [10]
47% yield.  
First, let's determine how many moles of ethane was used and how many moles of CO2 produced. Start with the respective atomic weights. 
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999  
Molar mass C2H6 = 2 * 12.0107 + 6 * 1.00794 = 30.06904 g/mol 
Molar mass CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 g/mol  
Moles C2H6 = 8 g / 30.06904 g/mol = 0.266054387 mol 
Moles CO2 = 11 g / 44.0087 g/mol = 0.249950578 mol  
Looking at the balanced equation, for every 2 moles of C2H6 consumed, 4 moles of CO2 should be produced. So at 100% yield, we should have 0.266054387 / 2 * 4 = 0.532108774 moles of CO2. But we only have 0.249950578 moles, or 0.249950578 / 0.532108774 = 0.46973587 =
46.973587% of what was expected.  
Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 47% yield.

Complete the following paragraph.
gladu [14]

Explanation:

the stationary phase in TLC is a <u>silica gel coated metal plate or paper</u>.

The<u> individual</u> component of the mixure will travel a greater distance up the plate, resulting in a <u>Rf</u> value for the component.

the <u>p-Xylene  spot </u> will travel a greater distance as it is the <u>lighter</u> component

Bromobenzene will travel least as it is the <u>heavier</u> component.

thin layer chromatography (TLC) is a type of chromatographic seperation technique that is based on the molecular size of components. the Rf value is the distance covered by the component relative to that travelled by the solvent which is the mobile phase
