Answer:

The correct answer is B. It is spontaneous only at low temperatures.

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure.

The spontaneity of a reaction is given by the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

where:

ΔH: enthalpy variation

T: absolute temperature

ΔS: entropy variation

As the reaction is exothermic, ΔH<0

As the reaction order increases (the reagents are solid and gas and their product is solid), ΔS<0

Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous when ΔG is negative.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

That is, the entropy term must be smaller than the enthalpy term.

Hence, the reaction will be spontaneous only at low temperatures.

A material has a volume of 63.0 cm3 and a mass of 28 grams.  What is the density of the material in g/cm3 to the correct number
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).

Explanation:

  • Knowing that:

<em>d = m/V,</em>

where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).

m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).

V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).

<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>

KE and PE Math
slava [35]

Answer:

1. Answer: The bowling ball has more potential energy as it sits on top of the building. It does not have any kinetic energy because it is not moving.

2. Answer: The bowling ball has equal amounts of potential and kinetic energy half way through the fall. At the half way point, half of the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy.

3. Answer: Just before the ball hits the ground, it has more kinetic energy. As it hits the ground the potential energy becomes zero.

4. Answer:

PE=784 J

5. Answer:  

PE = 392 J

6. Answer:

KE= 392 J

Also, since the PE and KE are equal at the half way point and PE =392 J, KE = 392 J.

7. What is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?

Answer:  

KE=784 J

At first I answered in the comments, but I am able to answer now. I hope this can help

What are carbon atoms made of?
juin [17]

Atoms with six protons and six neutrons — carbon. Carbon is a pattern maker. It can link to itself, forming long, resilient chains called polymers. It can also bond with up to four other atoms because of its electron arrangement.

Identify the relative molar amounts of the species in 0.10 M NaBr(aq). Br-, OH-, H2O, H3O+, NaBr, Na+
laila [671]
NaBr < H3O+1 = OH-1 < Na^+1 = Br^-1 < H2O 

<span>Least is NaBr (100% dissolved so no NaBr remains, only Na^+1 and Br^-1 </span>
<span>H2O yields 10^-7 M H3O^+1 and 10^-7 M OH^-1 (Kw = 1x10^-14 = [H3O+][OH-] </span>
<span>Na^+1 and Br^-1 will bothe be 0.1 M </span>
<span>H2O is slightly less that 1000 g / L in a 0.1 M NaBr solution, so its concentration is about 55.5 M</span>
