Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Degree of randomness of the molecules of a substance is known as entropy. More is the kinetic energy between the molecules of a substance more will be the degree of randomness.
Therefore, when a substance is present in a gaseous state then it has the maximum entropy. In liquid state, molecules are closer to each other so, there is less randomness between them.
On the other hand, in solid state molecules are much more closer to each other as they arr held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Therefore, they have very less entropy.
- When liquid water is formed from gaseous hydrogen and oxygen molecules then gas is changing into liquid. So, there is decrease in entropy.
- When
decomposes then the reaction will be as follows.
Since, 1 mole is producing 2 moles. This means that degree of randomness is increasing as both the molecules are present in gaseous form.
- In formation of a precipitate, aqueous solution is changing into solid state. Hence, degree of randomness is decreasing.
- Rusting of iron also leads to the formation of solid as it forms
.
Thus, we can conclude that decomposition of
gas to
gas is the process that is expected to have an increase in entropy.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Because it is the only was that you can test using the scientific method.
Answer:
THE MOLARITY OF SODIUM CHLORIDE IN THE CONTAINER IS 0.3846 M.
Explanation:
Molarity of a solution is the number of moles of solute per dm3 of solution.
Mass concentration = Molar concentration * Molar mass
1. calculate the mass concentration;
Mass conc. = 45 g in 2 L
= 45 g in 2 dm3
In 1 dm3, the mass will be 45 / 2
= 22.5 g/dm3 of NaCl.
2. Calculate the molar mass;
(Na = 23, Cl = 35.5)
Molar mass = ( 23 + 35.5 ) g/mol
Molar mass = 58.5 g/mol
3. calculate the molarity
Molarity = mss concentration / molar mass
Molarity = 22.5 g/dm3 / 58.5 g/mol
Molarity = 0.3846 mol/dm3 of NaCl.
The molarity of sodium chloride in the container is 0.3846 mol/dm3
Answer:
increase the rate of a reaction without being consumed by the reaction
Explanation:
- Enzymes are biochemical catalysts that increase the rate of chemical reactions.
- They increase the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed by the reaction.
- Enzymes increase the rate of chemical reactions by decreasing the activation energy of the reactants.
- Catalysts such as enzymes do not affect the free energy change of a chemical reaction (delta G). Therefore, delta G for a catalyzed and non-catalyzed reaction is equal.
