Answer:

Melting of snow

Evaporation of water from desk

Explanation:

Processes that increase the entropy of the universe are those processes that have an increased disorderliness. We should note that there are three principal states of matter which are the liquid, gas and solid. The gaseous state is the most disorderly while the solid is the least disorderly.

Now. We can see that the cooling of a hot cup of coffee is a process that needs or leads to a loss in temperature which obviously decreases disorderliness of the universe.

The melting of snow however is a process that leads to an increase in the disorderliness of the universe. It entails moving from the solid state to the liquid state. It tends to move to a more disordered state indicating an increase in the entropy of the universe.

The evaporation of water from the desk is quite similar to that above. Hence since we are moving from the liquid to the gaseous state via evaporation, we can state that the entropy of the universe has increased since we have moved from a state with a lesser degree of disorderliness to a state that is more disordered I.e from liquid to gaseous state.

A Helium gas in a tube with a volume of 9.583 L under pressure of 4.972 atm at 31.8 c
andre [41]

1.905 moles of Helium gas are in the tube. Hence, option A is correct.

<h3>What is an ideal gas equation?</h3>

The ideal gas law (PV = nRT) relates the macroscopic properties of ideal gases. An ideal gas is a gas in which the particles (a) do not attract or repel one another and (b) take up no space (have no volume).

Calculate the moles of the gas using the gas law,

PV=nRT, where n is the moles and R is the gas constant. Then divide the given mass by the number of moles to get molar mass.

Given data:

P= 4.972 atm

V= 9.583 L

n=?

R= 0.082057338 \;L \;atm \;K^{-1}mol^{-1}

T=31.8 +273= 304.8 K

Putting value in the given equation:

\frac{PV}{RT}=n

n= \frac{4.972 \;atm\; X \;9.583 \;L}{0.082057338 \;L \;atm \;K^{-1}mol^{-1} X 304.8}

Moles = 1.905 moles

1.905 moles of Helium gas are in the tube. Hence, option A is correct.
