Answer:
CaS
Explanation:
calcium is Ca2+ and sulfur is S2- because the charges are equal you only need one of each atom, so the answer is CaS
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gamma radiation penetrates the cell wall of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and can inhibit their metabolic functions as well as destroy their DNA.
Debunking the other answers:
A is incorrect as Gamma radiation is used in the treatment of cancer via radiotherapy.
B is incorrect as Gamma rays are too small and would just penetrate any smoke particles.
C is incorrect because Gamma rays are used to disinfect food products to prevent food borne illness. Irradiation is safe to use on food and does not make it radioactive.
Thus, D is correct.
Answer:
ΔG° = -533.64 kJ
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction.
Hg₂Cl₂(s) ⇄ Hg₂²⁺(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
The standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) can be calculated using the following expression:
ΔG° = ∑np × ΔG°f(products) - ∑nr × ΔG°f(reactants)
where,
ni are the moles of reactants and products
ΔG°f(i) are the standard Gibbs free energies of formation of reactants and products
ΔG° = 1 mol × ΔG°f(Hg₂²⁺) + 2 mol × ΔG°f(Cl⁻) - 1 mol × ΔG°f(Hg₂Cl₂)
ΔG° = 1 mol × 148.85 kJ/mol + 2 mol × (-182.43 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-317.63 kJ/mol)
ΔG° = -533.64 kJ
