What is the difference between a state and a microstate of a system?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a) A microstate is a snapshot of positions and speeds at a particular instant.

b) A thermodynamic state is a single possible arrangement of the positions and kinetic energies of the molecules.

c) A thermodynamic state is a set of conditions, usually temperature and pressure, that defines the properties of a bulk material.

d) A microstate is a single possibility for all the positions and kinetic energies of all the molecules in a sample.

e) A thermodynamic state is a set of conditions, usually temperature, volume and number of moles, that defines the properties of a bulk material.

Explanation:

A state of a system in thermodynamics give the properties that a material is been made up, these properties could be pressure, temperature, volumes and others , they are been called thermodynamic property

Microstates helps us to know how molecules is been arranged in single instant. Kinetics energy as well as position of molecules in a particular substance can be known in single instant.

Several factors affect the rate of a chemical reaction. From the options given factors that affect the rate are:
temperature and concentration of catalysts.
As the temperature increases, also the rate of the reaction increases.

When you mixed 20 grams of magnesium and an excess of nitric acid, 1.7 grams of hydrogen was actually produced. What is the perc
Kitty [74]
Based on the balanced chemical reaction presented above, every mole of magnesium (Mg) yields one mole of diatomic hydrogen (H2). When converted to masses, every 24.3 grams of magnesium yields 2 grams of hydrogen. 

From the given, there are 20 grams of magnesium available for the reaction. With this amount, the expected yield of hydrogen is 1.646 grams. To calculate the percent yield, divide the actual yield to the hypothetical yield.

*The case is impossible because the actual yield is greater than the theoretical yield.

If we assume that there had been a typographical error and that the actual yield is 0.7 grams instead of 1.7 grams, the percent yield becomes 42.5%. Thus, the answer is letter E.
