Answer:

This means the the sign of q for the reaction was _NEGATIVE _____ and the reaction was _EXOTHERMIC_____.

Explanation:

In calorimetry, when heat is absorbed by the solution, the q-value of the solution will have a positive value. This means that the reaction will produce heat for the solution to absorb and thus the q-value for the reaction will be negative. This is an exothermic reaction.

Whereas, when heat is absorbed from the solution, the q-value for the solution will have a negative value. This means that the reaction will absorb heat from the solution and so the reaction is endothermic, and q value for the reaction is positive.

So, from the question, since the q-value of water is positive, it means that heat is absorbed by the solution and the reaction will produce a negative value of q and it's an exothermic reaction because the reaction produces heat for the solution.

Entropy means that _________.A. the quantity of usable energy declines with each transformationB. energy can be neither created
son4ous [18]

Answer:

answer A

Explanation:

A) the quantity of usable energy declines with each transformation → True . Since the entropy increases , the amount of energy that can not be converted to useful energy increases and since the total amount of energy is conserved, the quantity of useful energy decreases.

B) energy can be neither created nor destroyed → False in the context of entropy , since the energy is conserved regardless of the changes in entropy (First law → conservation of energy vs second law → increase of entropy)

C)  life should be impossible → False . Since the second law states that the entropy of the <u>universe </u>increases with time . Then the system (life) can experience a decrease in entropy  at the expense of a larger increase in entropy of the surroundings ( so the net increase is positive)

D) it is not possible to observe an increase in molecular organisation → False . Same as C. A system  can experience a decrease in entropy at the expense of a larger increase in entropy of the surroundings ( so the net increase is positive)
