1. The answer is option E, that is None of the above is correct.
As a polymer becomes more crystalline,
its melting point doesn't decreases, its density doesn't decreases, its stiffness doesn't decreases and its yield stress doesn't decreases.
2. The answer is option B, that is the molecules are arranged in sheets, with their long axes parallel and their ends aligned as well.
In the smectic A liquid-crystalline phase, molecules are arranged in sheets, with their long axes parallel and their ends aligned as well.
3. For a substitutional alloy to form, the two metals combined must have similar atomic radii and chemical bonding properties.
Nitrogen fixation is the process that makes atmospheric nitrogen available to plants by mutualistic and free-living bacteria. The process is undertaken by the rhizobium bacteria that live in root roots of plants such as legumes. The mutualistic relationship is that the plant supplies the bacteria with a habitat in which to live, water, and nutrients, and the bacteria supply nitrogen for making plant proteins.
I hope you are able to find your answer through the guidance of this site as I have yet to cover this topic in chemistry: http://scientifictutor.org/1021/chem-how-to-convert-between-grams-and-molecules/
Answer:
G<0, spontanteous
H<0, from equation
S>0, gas to solid
Explanation:
The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. Despite its name, silica gel is a solid. It is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of SiO2. Water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, so it acts as a desiccant. Despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided, you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. Predict the signs of ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS.
