Answer and Explanation:

BINARY COMPOUND: A binary compound is that compound which is made up of exactly two elements there are a lot binary compound present for example :H_2O, NaCl,NH_3,H_2S etc

TERNARY COMPOUND : A ternary compound is that compound which is made up of exactly three elements there are a lot binary compound present for example : Na_2SO_4,H_2SO_4,CH_3C00H  etc

State whether the sign of the entropy change expected for each of the following processes will be positive or negative, and expl
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a) ΔS is negative

b) ΔS is positive

c) ΔS is positive

d) ΔS is negative

Explanation:

Entropy (S) is a thermodynamic parameter which measures the randomness or the disorder in a system. Greater the disorder more positive will be the value of entropy.

The extent of disorder increases as substances transition from the solid to the gaseous state. i.e.

S(solid) < S(liquid) < S(gas)

The entropy change for a given reaction is:

\Delta S = S(products)-S(reactants)----(1)

a) PCl3(l) + Cl2(g) \rightarrow PCl5(s)

Here  the reactants are in the liquid and gas phase which have higher entropy than the product which is in the solid phase i.e. lower entropy.

Since S(product) < S(reactant), based on equation 1, ΔS will be negative.

b) 2HgO(s) \rightarrow 2Hg(l) + O2(g)

Here the products are in the liquid and gas phase which have higher entropy than the reactant which is in the solid phase i.e. lower entropy.

Since S(product) > S(reactant), based on equation 1, ΔS will be positive.

c) H2(g) \rightarrow 2H(g)

Here the products and reactants are in the gas phase. However the number of moles of products is greater than the reactants

Since S(product) > S(reactant), based on equation 1, ΔS will be positive.

d) U(s) + 3F2(g) \rightarrow UF6(s)

Here  one of the reactants is in the gas phase which corresponds to a more positive entropy compared to the  product which is in the solid phase i.e. lower entropy.

Since S(product) < S(reactant), based on equation 1, ΔS will be negative.

Which of the following required Bohr's model of the atom to need modification ? A. Energies of electrons are quantized. B. Quant
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Electrons do not follow circular orbits around the nucleus

Explanation:

Bohr's model of the atom is a combination of elements of quantum theory and classical physics in approaching the problem of the hydrogen atom. According to Neils Bohr, stationary states exist in which the energy of the electron is constant. These stationary states were referred to as circular orbits which encompasses the nucleus of the atom. Each orbit is characterized by a principal quantum number (n). Energy is absorbed or emitted when an electron transits between stationary states in the atom.

Sommerfeld improved on Bohr's proposal by postulating that instead of considering the electron in circular orbits, electrons actually orbited around the nucleus in elliptical orbits, this became a significant improvement on Bohr's model of the atom until the wave mechanical model of Erwin Schrödinger was proposed.
