What can be said of a closed system when an exothermic reaction proceeds in an aqueous solution?

1 answer:

8 0

An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction that dissipates heat as the reaction proceeds. This would mean that in a closed system, when a reaction proceeds and is endothermic, the temperature of the solution or the system would increase so as to maintain the equilibrium with the whole system.

Calculate the standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol, C2H5OH, at 285.0 K, given that the molar heat capacity at constant pr

MArishka [77]

Answer: The standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol is 0.275 J/K

Explanation:

$C_2H_5OH(l)\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5OH(g)$

Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:

$\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S$

For a phase change, the reaction remains in equilibrium, thus $\Delta G=0$

$\Delta H=T\Delta S$

Given: Temperature = 285.0 K

$\Delta H=78.3J/mol$

Putting the values in the equation:

$78.3J=285.0K\times \Delta S$

$\Delta S=0.275J/K$

Thus the standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol is 0.275 J/K

Which element below is the most reactive? Hydrogen chlorine neon oxygen

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Chlorine

Explanation:

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and a configuration of 2, 8, 7. In the outermost shell, it has 7 seven electrons which means that it needs just one more electron to attain an octet configuration in that shell. Therefore it's can react quickly with any nearby nucleophile.
