Answer:

171 J/mol.K

Explanation:

The spontaneity of a reaction depends on the Gibbs free energy (ΔG). If ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous. The Gibbs free energy is related to the enthalpy (ΔH) and the entropy (ΔS) of the reaction through the following expression:

ΔG = ΔH - T.ΔS

where,

T is the absolute temperature

If ΔG < 0,

ΔH - T.ΔS < 0

ΔH < T.ΔS

ΔS > ΔH/T = (78.7 × 10³ J/mol)/461 K = 171 J/mol.K

ΔS must be at least 171 J/mol.K for the reaction to be spontaneous above 461 K.

What occurs to the atoms of reactants in a chemical reaction?
djyliett [7]

Question:

What occurs to the atoms of reactants in a chemical reaction?

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants. ... No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.

Compare the evaporation of a contained liquid with that of an uncontained liquid.
vekshin1

Answer: all other conditions equal, the rate evaporation of a contained liquid will be slower than the rate of evaporation of an uncontained liquid.


Justification:


1) The rate of evaporation increases as the surface area of the liquid (relative to the whole content) increases. This is, the greater the surface is the faster the evaporation.


2) That is so because the higher the surface of the liquid the more the number of particles in the liquid that are in contact with the surrounding air and so the more the particles will escape from the liquid to the air (which is what evaporation is).


3) A liquid contained will take the form of the container, so part of the liquid wil remain below the surface, while an uncontained liquid will spread all over the surface and so pratically all the liquid is in contact witht the air surrounding it.

What causes pressure inside a helium balloon?
kupik [55]

Explanation:

So the gas pressure of a helium balloon arises from the impact of the collisions of the helium atoms between themselves and with the inside surface of the balloon. Of course, the outside atmosphere similarly exerts a pressure on the outside of the balloon.
