Answer:

Explanation:

In ideal solutions, the interactions between solute - solvent are approximately the same as those of solute - solute and solvent - solvent, that is the interactions are to be practically indistintiguishable after disolution.

The moment we have a release of energy (the solution feels warm) we are to conclude that there are strong interactions between the water and methanol molecules so we would expect the solution to be non ideal.

The reason for the interactions is the presence of hydrogen bonds between methanol and water.

A gas mixture with 4 mol of Ar, x moles of Ne, and y moles

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a) $\Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]$

b) $x=4$

c) $\Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol$

Explanation:

Gas mixture:

$n_{Ar}= 4 mol$

$n_{Ne}= x mol$

$n_{Xe}= y mol$

$n_{tot}= n_{Ar} + n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=3*n_{Ar}$

$n_{Ne} + n_{Xe}=2*n_{Ar}$

$x + y=8 mol$

$y=8 mol- x$

Mol fractions:

$x_{Ar}=\frac{4 mol}{12 mol}=1/3$

$x_{Ne}=\frac{x mol}{12 mol}=x/12$

$x_{Xe}=\frac{8 - x mol}{12 mol}=(8-x)/12$

Expression of $\Delta G_{mixing}$

$\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*\sum_{i]*x_i*ln (x_i)$

$\Delta G_{mixing}=R*T*[1/3*ln (1/3) +x/12*ln (x/12) +(8-x)/12*ln ((8-x)/12)]$

$\Delta G_{mixing}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +x*ln (x/12) +(8-x)*ln ((8-x)/12)]$

Expression of $\Delta G_{max}$

$\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=0$

$\frac{d \Delta G_{mixing}}{dx}=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)+12-ln ((8-x)/12)-12]$

$0=\frac{R*T}{12}*[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)$

$0=[ln (x/12)-ln ((8-x)/12)$

$ln (x/12)=ln ((8-x)/12)$

$x=(8-x)$

$x=4$

$\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (4/12) +(8-4)*ln ((8-4)/12)]$

$\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[4*ln (1/3) +4*ln (1/3) +(4)*ln (1/3)]$

$\Delta G_{max}=\frac{8.314*298}{12}*[12*ln (1/3)]$

$\Delta G_{max}=-2721.9 J/mol$

PAP Physical Studies<br><br> How can you remember the periodic table?

siniylev [52]

Break down the table into smaller sections. Memories period by period or if you like by group (like halogens or noble gases).
Just say the elements in order everyday 1-10 then when you get those 11-20 and continued.

. The dissolving process is exothermic when the energy

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

The dissolving process depends on the interaction between solute and solvent (solvation) and the breaking up of the intermolecular bond between solutes. The former is exothermic in nature, while the later is endothermic. Energy is released when solute-solvent particles interact. When this energy exceeds the energy required to break intermolecular bonds between the solute particles, dissolution is exothermic.
