the heat of fusion of acetone is 5.7 kJ/mol. Calculate to two significant figures the entropy change when 6.3 mol of acetone mel
shtirl [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The entropy change of the process is 2.0\times 10^2J/K

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the entropy change for different phase at same temperature, we use the equation:

\Delta S=n\times \frac{\Delta H_{f}}{T}

where,  

\Delta S = Entropy change

n = moles of acetone = 6.3 moles

\Delta H_{f} = enthalpy of fusion = 5.7 kJ/mol = 5700 J/mol    (Conversion factor:  1 kJ = 1000 J)

T = temperature of the system = -94.7^oC=[273-94.7]=178.3K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta S=\frac{6.3mol\times 5700J/mol}{178.3K}\\\\\Delta S=201.4J/K=2.0\times 10^2J/K

Hence, the entropy change of the process is 2.0\times 10^2J/K

Explain why an atom can only emit specific wavelengths of light and not every possible wavelength
ella [17]

Answer:

<em>The electrons in an atom can only occupy certain allowed energy levels to a lower one</em>, the excess energy is emitted as a photon of light, with its wavelength dependent on the change in electron energy. This is why an atom can only emit specific wavelengths of light and not every possible wavelength.

How does atomic radius (size or atom diameter) affect bond distance (distance between atoms)?
yKpoI14uk [10]
When two atoms of the same element are covalently bonded, the radius of each atom will be half the distance between the two nuclei because they equally attract the electrons. The reason for this trend is that the bigger the radii, the further the distance between the two nuclei. Hope this helps:)
