Answer:

A. Diamond

Explanation:

Entropy is an important physical quantity used in statistical mechanics and thermodynamics to measure the degree of disorder of a system. We say that the greater the entropy variation of a system, the greater its clutter, the less energy will be available for use.  Entropy is related to the spontaneity of some physical or chemical process. Whenever such a process happens spontaneously, the entropy of the system will increase, ie the system will be less organized or more random.

If we compare three systems with entropy: the first with something in the liquid state, the second with something in the solid state, and the third with something in the form of vapor, we will conclude that the entropy of the third system will be greater than the others, due to the greater agitation of the molecules. Already the second system, with something in the solid state will be the system with less entropy because in this case the spacing between the molecules of this "something" is smaller and consequently the agitation of them. For this reason, as diamond is something in solid state, we can say that with the exposed options, diamond is the alternative with less entropy.

You have 125.0 mL of a solution of H3PO4, bu you don't know its concentration. if you titrate the solution with a 4.56-M solutio
irakobra [83]

Answer:

4.90 M

Explanation:

In case of titration , the following formula can be used -

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

where ,

M₁ = concentration of acid ,

V₁ = volume of acid ,

M₂ = concentration of base,

V₂ = volume of base .

from , the question ,

M₁ = ? M

V₁ = 125.0 mL

M₂ = 4.56 M

V₂ = 134.1 mL

Using the above formula , the molarity of acid , can be calculated as ,

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂  

Substituting the respective values ,  

M₁ *  125.0 mL = 4.56 M *  134.1 mL

M₁ = 4.90 M

The average atomic mass recorded on the periodic table for cobalt is 58.933 u. This indicates that the most abundant isotope of
OleMash [197]
The average atomic mass of the element is the sum of the products of the percentage abundance of isotope and its mass number. Therefore, for atomic mass equal to 58.933, the most abundant isotope is cobalt-59. Thus, the answer is letter C.

The specific heat capacity of titanium is 0.523j/g c what is the heat capacity of 2.3g of titanium
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

1.2029 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat capacity of titanium = 0.523 J/g.°C

Specific heat capacity of 2.3 gram of titanium = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

1 g of titanium have 0.523 J/g.°C specific heat capacity

2.3  × 0.523 J/g.°C

1.2029 J/g.°C

Substance X has a fixed volume, and the attraction between its particles is strong. Substance Y has widely spread out particles
enot [183]
Among the choices given, the correct answer is the first option. Substance X most likely is a crystal, and substance Y most likely is a liquid. Substance X having a fixed volume describes a crystal because crystals occupy a certain volume. Substance Y is a liquid because liquids can still be compressed further in order to attain a more packed <span>structure.</span>
