Answer :

(a) The entropy change will also decreases.

(b) The entropy change will also increases.

(c) The entropy change will also decreases.

(d) The entropy change will also increases.

Explanation :

Entropy : It is defined as the measurement of randomness or disorderedness in a system.

The order of entropy will be,

As we are moving from solid state to liquid state to gaseous state, the entropy will be increases due to the increase in the disorderedness.

As we are moving from gaseous state to liquid state to solid state, the entropy will be decreases due to the decrease in the disorderedness.

(a) N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)

In this reaction, the randomness of reactant molecules are more and as we move towards the formation of product the randomness become less that means the degree of disorderedness decreases. So, the entropy change will also decreases.

(b) CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

In this reaction, the randomness of reactant molecules are less and as we move towards the formation of product the randomness become more that means the degree of disorderedness increase. So, the entropy change will also increases.

(c) 3C_2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_6H_6(g)

In this reaction, 3 mole of gaseous C_2H_2 react to give 1 mole of gaseous C_6H_6 that means randomness become less that means the degree of disorderedness decreases. So, the entropy change will also decreases.

(d) Al_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al(s)+3H_2O(g)

In this reaction, the number of moles of gases are same on both side of the reaction but 1 mole of solid Al_2O_3 react to give 2 moles of solid aluminium that means randomness become more that means the degree of disorderedness increases. So, the entropy change will also increases.

Balance the following half reaction in basic conditions. Then, indicate the coefficients for H2O and OH– for the balanced half r
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The ballance half reactions are:

Mg²⁺  + 2e⁻ → Mg

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Coefficients for H2O and OH– are 3 for H₂O (in products side) and 6 for OH⁻ (in reactants side)

Explanation:

Si (s) + Mg(OH)₂ (s) → Mg (s) + SiO₃²⁻ (aq)

Let's see the oxidations number.

As any element in ground state, we know that oxidation state is 0, so Si in reactants and Mg in products, have 0.

Mg in reactants, acts with +2, so the oxidation number has decreased.

This is the reduction, so it has gained electrons.

Si in reactants acts with 0 so in products we find it with +4. The oxidation number increased it, so this is oxidation. The element has lost electrons.

Let's take a look to half reactions:

Mg²⁺  + 2e⁻ → Mg

Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻

In basic medium, we have to add water, as the same amount of oxygen we have, IN THE SAME SIDE. We have 3 oxygens in products, so we add 3 H₂O and in the opposite site we can add OH⁻, to balance the hydrogen. The half reaciton will be:

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

If we want to ballance the main reaction we have to multiply (x2) the half reaction of oxidation. So the electrons can be ballanced.

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

Now, that they are ballanced we can sum the half reactions:

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

6OH⁻ + Si  → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

2Mg²⁺  + 4e⁻  + 6OH⁻ + Si  → 2Mg  +  SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Which phrases describe clastic sedimentary rocks? Check all that apply.
Romashka [77]

Explanation:

A clastic sedimentary rock is a rock that is formed from pre-existing rock materials and minerals. This materials have been transported to their new positions by the agents of denudation.

  1. Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of rock fragments predominantly.
  2. The matrix is usually remnants of other rocks.
  3. A cementing material can form between clasts and holds them in place. Cements are usually iron oxides, calcite e.t.c.
  4. These rock types are usually formed from mechanincal weathering of rocks
  5. Mechanical weathering breaks down rocks into chunks.
  6. Examples are breccia, conglomerates, e.t.c.

There are 34 questions on a test. John answers 22 correctly. What is Johns percent error?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

35 . 29%

Explanation:

no. of questions in test =34

no. of questions answered correctly =22

therefore, no. of questions answered incorrectly =34 - 22

=12

error percentage = 12/34 * 100

=35 .29 %

The Hall process for the production of aluminum involves the reaction of aluminum oxide with elemental carbon to give aluminum m
topjm [15]

Answer:

  • <u><em>1.7 × 10³ kg of ore.</em></u>

Explanation:

Call X the amount of aluminum ore mined to produce 1.0 × 10³ kg the aluminum metal.

Then, taking into account the yield of the reaction (82 % = 0.82) and the percent of aluminun in the ore (71% = 0.71), you can write the following equation:

  •  X         ×          71%                ×       82%     =     1.0 × 10³ kg

         ↑                      ↑                              ↑                     ↑

(mass of ore)    (% of Al in the ore)        (yield)        ( Al metal to obtain)

You must just simplify, solve and compute:

  • 0.71 × 0.82 × X = 1,000
  • X = 1,000 / (0.71 × 0.82) = 1,000 / 0.5822 = 1,717.6 Kg

Round to two significant figures; 1,700 kg = 1.7 × 10³ kg of ore ← answer.
