Answer:
The entropy change for a real, irreversible process is equal to <u>zero.</u>
The correct option is<u> 'c'.</u>
Explanation:
<u>Lets look around all the given options -:</u>
(a) the entropy change for a theoretical reversible process with the same initial and final states , since the entropy change is equal and opposite in reversible process , thus this option in not correct.
(b) equal to the entropy change for the same process performed reversibly ONLY if the process can be reversed at all. Since , the change is same as well as opposite too . Therefore , this statement is also not true .
(c) zero. This option is true because We generate more entropy in an irreversible process. Because no heat moves into or out of the surroundings during the procedure, the entropy change of the surroundings is zero.
(d) impossible to tell. This option is invalid , thus incorrect .
<u>Hence , the correct option is 'c' that is zero.</u>
The empirical formula is K₂O.
The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio</em> of atoms in a compound.
The <em>ratio of atom</em>s is the same as the <em>ratio of moles</em>.
So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of K to O.
Step 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element
</em>
Moles of K = 32.1 g K × (1 mol K/(39.10 g K =) = 0.8210 mol K
Moles of O = 6.57 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 0.4106 mol 0
Step 2. Calculate the <em>molar ratio of each elemen</em>t
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer
K:O = 0.8210:0.4106 = 1.999:1 ≈ 2:1
Step 3: Write the <em>empirical formula
</em>
EF = K₂O
