Commercial cold packs often contain solid NH4NO3 and a pouch of water. The temperature of the pack drops as the NH4NO3 dissolves

in water. Therefore, for the dissolving of NH4NO3 in water, a. ΔHsoln is positive and ΔSsoln may be negative or positive. b. ΔHsoln is positive and ΔSsoln is positive. c. ΔHsoln is negative and ΔSsoln is positive. d. ΔHsoln is negative and ΔSsoln may be negative or positive.

Answer: b. \Delta H_{soln} is positive and \Delta S_{soln} is positive.

Explanation:-

As the temperature of the pack drops, the energy has been absorbed from the pack for dissolution of NH_4NO_3 in water. Thus as the energy has been absorbed in the reaction, the reaction is endothermic and the change in enthalpy i.e. \Delta H_{soln} is positive.

The entropy is the measure of degree of randomness. The entropy increases when the randomness increases and the entropy decreases when the randomness decreases. When a substance dissolves in water, it dissociate into ions and hence the randomness increases thus the change in entropy i.e. \Delta S_{soln}  is positive.

What volume does 0.482 mol of gas occupy at a pressure of 719 mmHg at 56 ∘C?
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The volume is 13, 69 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the temperature in Celsius into Kelvin and the pressure in mmHg into atm.

0°C= 273K---> 56°C= 56 + 273= 329K

760 mmHg----1 atm

719 mmHg----x= (719 mmHgx 1 atm)/760 mmHg= 0,95 atm

PV=nRT ---> V= (nRT)/P

V=( 0,482 molx 0,082 l atm/K mol x 329K)/0,95 atm

<em>V=13,68778526 L</em>

Answer:

A strip of magnesium metal is ignited using a lighter wand. The result is

an intensely glowing white light. As the burning of the metal subsides, a

white powder-like substance now appears replacing the smooth ribbon of

metal.

For a reaction Y → X with a very high equilibrium constant, K, which of the following is true? You can refer to the following tw
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:The amount of product will be higher than the amount of substrate at equilibrium

Explanation:

Recall that the equilibrium constant K depends on the amounts of reactants and products present in the system at equilibrium.

Considering the equation; K = [X]/[Y], as the concentration of X increases above that of Y, the equilibrium constant K becomes very high, hence the answer above.
