Which of the following is expected to have zero entropy?

Chemistry

Answer:

IV

Explanation:

Entropy is a measure of the degree of disorderliness in a particular molecule. What we are saying is that randomization plays an important role in the quest for determining a molecule at a point of disorderliness.

Now let us look at the answer choices.

N2 is a gas and is expected to have a high amount of degree of disorderliness.

SiO2 although is at the absolute zero temperature which is supposed to necessitate a low entropy amount, the fact that it is not ordered I.e amorphous confers a degree of disorderliness in its molecule.

NaCl although perfectly ordered is not at the absolute zero and hence cannot exhibit the needed degree of disorderliness.

Na is our answer choice because it meets the two criteria needed for zero entropy. Firstly, it is of considerable orderliness and hence, entropy isn’t expected in its molecule. Also, it has no disturbance in the case of temperature as it is at absolute zero.

An ore sample is known to contain copper sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4•5H2O. If a 10.000 g sample of the ore loses 0.8445 g of wat
Simora [160]

Answer:

2,341g of CuSO₄.5H₂O

Explanation:

It is possible to assume all loses water comes from CuSO₄.5H₂O. Thus:

0,8445g H₂O (1mol H₂O / 18,015g) = 0,04688 moles of water.

As 1 mole of contains 5 moles of water, moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O are:

0,04688 moles H₂O × (1 mole CuSO₄.5H₂O / 5 moles H₂O) = 9,38x10⁻³ moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O

The molecular mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O is 249,69g/mol. Thus, mass of 9,38x10⁻³ moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O is:

9,38x10⁻³ moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O × (249,69g / mol) =

<em>2,341g of CuSO₄.5H₂O </em>is the maximum quantity of CuSO₄.5H₂O that could be in the sample.

I hope it helps!

Why does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and other trace gases in Earth's atmosphere absorb the longer wavelengths of outgoing infrared radiation from Earth's surface. These gases then emit the infrared radiation in all directions, both outward toward space and downward toward Earth
