You can use the equation ΔS(surr)=q(surr)/T or ΔS(surr)=-q(rxn)/T.
the two equations are equal since we know that the energy the system (reactoin) puts out just goes into the surroundings.  
(In other words q(surr)=-q(rxn))

Using the equation, <span>ΔS(surr)=-(-283kJ/298K)=0.9497kJ/K or 949.7J/K

This answer makes sense since the reaction is exothermic which means it released energy into the system which usually causes the entropy to increase.

I hope that helps.</span>

If you take a part time job while you are still in school what might your opportunity scost be
yarga [219]

The opportunity costs of working part-time while attending high school could be studying time, grades, and your own free time. It depends on the person, how they do in school, but if it were for me, I would say the benefits outweigh the costs. I have enough time to study and still get good grades in school.
