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>

According to the octet rule, which of elements will have a tendency to loss 2 electrons?
Aneli [31]
The correct option is STRONTIUM.
Strontium is a group 2 element, that means it has two electrons in its outermost shell. This element will prefer to lose these two electrons in its outermost shell in order to attain the octet form, therefore, it will form electrovalent bond with non metals which it can donate two electrons to.
