What is your standing regarding compostable plastics? Is it really environmental-friendly?​

Chemistry

Archy [21]3 years ago
6 0

If a biodegradable plastic or bioplastic ends up in a landfill site it will never decompose. In landfill sites waste is essentially mummified, in a complete absence of light and oxygen. Food that has ended up in landfill will not biodegrade, so there is no hope for biodegradable plastics or even bioplastics.So it is bad.

In class we derived the Gibbs energy of mixing for a binary mixture of perfect gases. We also discussed that the same result is
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Attached below

Explanation:

Free energy of mixing = ΔGmix = Gf - Gi

attached below is the required derivation of the

<u>a) Molar Gibbs energy of mixing</u>

ΔGmix = Gf - Gi

hence : ΔGmix = ∩RT ( X1 In X1 + X2 In X2 + X3 In X3 + ------- )

<u>b) molar excess Gibbs energy of mixing</u>

Ni = chemical potential of gas

fi = Fugacity

N°i = Chemical potential of gas when Fugacity = 1

ΔG = RT In ( a2 / a1 )

A 1.00 L flask is filled with 1.15 g of argon at 25 ∘C. A sample of ethane vapor is added to the same flask until the total pres
tatiyna

Answer:

The partial pressure of argon in the flask = 71.326 K pa

Explanation:

Volume off the flask = 0.001 m^{3}

Mass of the gas = 1.15 gm = 0.00115 kg

Temperature = 25 ° c = 298 K

Gas constant for Argon R = 208.13 \frac{J}{kg k}

From ideal gas equation P V = m RT

⇒ P = \frac{m R T}{V}

Put all the values in above formula we get

⇒ P = \frac{0.00115}{0.001} × 208.13 × 298

⇒ P = 71.326 K pa

Therefore, the partial pressure of argon in the flask = 71.326 K pa
