Which word best discribes entropy

1 answer:

4 0

Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work. Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, the amount of entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.

What is the mass of 4.5 x 10^22 molecules of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)? Show your work in the space below.

valentinak56 [21]

Given :

Number of molecules of hydrogen peroxide, N = 4.5 × 10²².

To Find :

The mass of given molecules of hydrogen peroxide.

Solution :

We know, 1 mole of every compound contains Nₐ = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.

So, number of moles of hydrogen peroxide is :

$n = \dfrac{N}{N_a}\\\\n = \dfrac{4.5\times 10^{22}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\\n = 0.0747 \ moles$

Now, mass of hydrogen peroxide is given as :

m = n × M.M

m = 0.0747 × 34 grams

m = 2.54 grams

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why do two oxygen atoms form a double covalent bond?

elena-s [515]

A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
