First, we will convert the mass of the gallon to grams:
a gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 * 1000 = 3790 grams of water
number of moles can be calculated using the following rule:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore,
number of moles = 3790 / 18.02 = 210.32 moles
Answer:
Neon (Ne) has the most stable outer electron configuration because the outer electron is completely filled and it has octet structure
Explanation:
The configuration of these elements is as follows;
Cl₁₇ = 2, 8,7 (the outer electron is 7)
Ca₂₀ = 2,8,8,2 (the outer electron is 2)
Ne₁₀ = 2,8 (the outer electron is 8)
Na₁₁ = 2,8,1 (the outer electron is 1)
Based on the outer electron value above, Neon (Ne) has the most stable outer electron configuration because the outer electron is completely filled and it has octet structure.
Answer:
Metabolism
Explanation:
The sum of the chemical reactions that take place within each cell of a living organism and that provide energy for vital processes and for synthesizing new organic material.
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Degree of randomness of the molecules of a substance is known as entropy. More is the kinetic energy between the molecules of a substance more will be the degree of randomness.
Therefore, when a substance is present in a gaseous state then it has the maximum entropy. In liquid state, molecules are closer to each other so, there is less randomness between them.
On the other hand, in solid state molecules are much more closer to each other as they arr held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Therefore, they have very less entropy.
- When liquid water is formed from gaseous hydrogen and oxygen molecules then gas is changing into liquid. So, there is decrease in entropy.
- When decomposes then the reaction will be as follows.
Since, 1 mole is producing 2 moles. This means that degree of randomness is increasing as both the molecules are present in gaseous form.
- In formation of a precipitate, aqueous solution is changing into solid state. Hence, degree of randomness is decreasing.
- Rusting of iron also leads to the formation of solid as it forms .
Thus, we can conclude that decomposition of gas to gas is the process that is expected to have an increase in entropy.
