Ludwig Boltzmann developed a model that relates entropy to: Select the correct answer below:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Phantasy [73]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

the number of possible configurations of the locations and energies of the atoms or molecules that comprise a system

Explanation:

Ludwig Boltzmann suggested that the concept of entropy may be calculated from close examination of the positions and energies of molecules. He developed this idea into an equation, known as the Boltzmann equation, which relates entropy to the number of microstates (W):

S = k ln W

where k is the Boltzmann constant (1.38 x 10-23 J/K), and W is the number of microstates.

Microstates was simply defined as the number of different possible arrangements of molecular position and kinetic energy at a particular thermodynamic state. Hence, any process that gives an increase in the number of microstates therefore increases the entropy.

A waterbed mattress has the following dimensions: 210 cm X 160 cm X 25 cm. The density of water is 62.4lb/ft3. What is the weigh
artcher [175]

<u>Answer:</u> The weight of water bed in pounds is 1850.16 lb

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

V=lbh

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 210 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 160 cm

h = height of cuboid = 25 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=210\times 160\times 25=8.4\times 10^5cm^3=29.65ft^3      (Conversion factor:  1cm^3=3.53\times 10^{-5}ft^3 )

To calculate the mass of waterbed, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of waterbed = 62.4lb/ft^3

Volume of waterbed = 29.65ft^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

62.4lb/ft^3=\frac{\text{Mass of waterbed}}{29.65ft^3}\\\\\text{Mass of waterbed}=(62.4lb/ft^3\times 29.65ft^3)=1850.16lb

Hence, the weight of water bed in pounds is 1850.16 lb

The rate of a reaction is measured by how fast a reactant is used up or how fast a product is formed.
ivanzaharov [21]
This statement is true. The rate of the reaction is measured by how fast a reactant is used up, or how fast a product is formed. This all tie's into the usage of energy.

Static electricity is the buildup of electric charges. Which of the following is an example of a natural discharge of static ele
Zepler [3.9K]

The answer is: C

This is because of clouds in the sky, there may be a positive charged cloud and a negative charged cloud, when both clouds come together they form a neutral cloud so the protons and electrons in both clouds become equal in one bigger cloud and the excess amout of electrons is the lighting.
