The number of years that must be invested at a rate of 7 % to earn$ 303.52 in interest is

8 years

calculation

by use of the formula A = P (1+ rt)
where : A is the final amount = 542 + 303.52 =$ 845.52

P is the principal money to be invested = $ 542

r= rate= 7/100=0.07

t= time required

=$ 845.52=$ 542( 1+ 0.07 t)

open the bracket
= $845.53= $542 + $37.94 t

like terms together

=$ 845.53 -$542 = $37.94 t

=$303.52 =$37.94 t

divide both side by $37.94

= $303.52/ $ 37.94 = $37.94t/$37.94

t= 8 years

For which of the following reactions is S° > 0. Choose all that apply. N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) 2C2H6(g) + 7O2(g) 4CO2(g) + 6H2

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: $2C_2H_6(g)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)$

$NH_4I(s)\rightarrow NH_3(g)+HI(g)$

$2H_2O(g)+2SO_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)$

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system.

A system has positive value of entropy if the disorder increases and a system has negative value of entropy if the disorder decreases.

1. $N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)$

As 4 moles of gaseous reactants are changing to 2 moles of gaseous products, the randomness is decreasing and the entropy is negative

2. $2C_2H_6(g)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)$

As 9 moles of gaseous reactants are changing to 10 moles of gaseous products, the randomness is increasing and the entropy is positive.

3. $NH_4I(s)\rightarrow NH_3(g)+HI(g)$

As 1 mole of solid reactants is changing to 2 moles of gaseous products, the randomness is increasing and the entropy is positive.

4. $2H_2O(g)+2SO_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)$

As 4 moles of gaseous reactants is changing to 5 moles of gaseous products, the randomness is increasing and the entropy is positive

5. $2NO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2H_2O(l)$

As 4 moles of gaseous reactants is changing to 1 moles of gaseous products, the randomness is decreasing and the entropy is negative.

Is kp or kc larger (both at 300 k) for the reaction 2 nh3(g) ⇀↽ n2(g) + 3 h2(g) ? 1. they are both the same. 2. kc is larger. 3.

fgiga [73]

The equation is 2 NH3 (g) â‡€â†˝ N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g)
Difference in the number of moles delta n = ((3 + 1) - 2) = 4 - 2 = 2
We have an equation Kp= Kc (R x T) ^ (delta n); R is constant and T = 300 K
Kp / Kc = (R x T) ^2 Based on the temperature value (300 K), we can conclude that Kp is Larger.
