Answer:

a solid is more ordered than a liquid

Explanation:

The entropy is defined as degree of randomness. More the disordered system, more the entropy of the system as compared to a system with same compound and more ordered arrangement.

In case of gas, liquid and solids, the molecules move randomly here and there in gas, while they are more ordered in liquid as compared to gas, and in gas the particles are almost fix. They do not show any translation motion.

Thus solids are more ordered than a liquid and thus have lower entropy.

Which of the reactions are exothermic?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Reaction A, B, E and F are exothermic reactions.

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of reactants is more than the energy of the products. In these reactions, energy is released by the system.

The total enthalpy of the reaction (\Delta H) comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of products is more than the energy of the reactants. In these reactions, energy is absorbed by the system.

The total enthalpy of the reaction (\Delta H) comes out to be positive.

So, from the given option reaction which are exothermic are with negative value (\Delta H) that enthalpy of reaction and those are:

1) 2Mg(s) + O_2( g )\rightarrow 2MgO (s),ΔH = -1203 kJ/mol

2)NH_3 (g) + HCl (g)\rightarrow NH_4Cl (s),ΔH =-176 kJ/mol

3) C(graphite) + O_2 (g)\rightarrow CO_2 (g),ΔH = -393.5 kJ/mol

4) CH_4 (g) + 2O2 (g)\rightarrow CO_2 (g) + 2H_2O (l),ΔH =-891 kJ/mol

Ann [662]

Answer: 1) endothernic

2) Yes absorbed

Explanation:

Decomposition is a chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products. All decomposition reactions are endothermic reactions as energy is absorbed to break the bonds.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be positive.

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be negative.
