Answer:

  • <u>If the amount of heat released by the solution, when it cools, is greater than the decrease in the free energy, the entropy will decrease, and if the amount of heat released by the solution is less than the decrease in the free energy, the entropy decreases.</u>

Explanation:

In an spontaneus reaction the free energy decreases: ΔG < 0.

Since, the solution cools its enthalpy decreases: ΔH < 0.

By definition ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Then, you can solve for TΔS:

  • TΔS = ΔH - ΔG

Since ΔG is negative, - ΔG is positive.

Then, TΔS will be a negative value (ΔH) plus a positive value (-ΔG).

If the magnitue of the negative value is greater than the positive value, TΔS will be negative, and the entropy decreases.

If, on the other hand, the magnitude of the negative value is less than the positive value, TΔS will be positive, and the entropy increases.

That means, that if the amount of heat released by the solution, when it cools, is greater than the decrease in the free energy, the entropy will decrease, and if the amount of heat released by the solution is less than the decrease in the free energy, the entropy decreases.

What ion is at a higher concentration in the extracellular fluid than in the intracellular fluid?
Phoenix [80]
There are two types of fluid in the body extracellular fluid and intracellular fluid (ECF and ICF), together they are account for total body water.
The Sodium (Na+) ion is at higher concentration in the extracellular fluid than in the intracellular fluid. The function of extracellular fluid is that it provide cells to watery environment so that they can easily live and perform their function.

Briefly describe four ways that a beam can be strengthened?​
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

1. Changing Beam Material

2. Corrugation

3. Changing Beam form

4. Steel Reinforcing Bars

Explanation:

Changing Beam Material

Some materials are stronger when used in beams than others. Beams made of steel for instance are stronger than beams made of wood. Therefore changing material can improve the strength of the beam. It is quite important to take into account the weights of the material though as different structures have different requirements.

Corrugation.

You can fold the beam into triangular shapes to increase strength. If you look at roofs you will notice that they are folded and this increased their strength. The same logic can be applied to beams.

Changing Beam Form

Another way to make Beams stronger is to change their form or rather their shape. Straight beams are not as strong as I-beams for instance. I-beams look like the capital letter I with the lines at both ends. I-beams are usually used in construction which shows that they are quite strong.

Steel Reinforcing Bars

When placed in concrete beams, Steel Reinforcing Bars which are also called Rebar can help strengthen a beam by helping it withstand the forces of tension. A concrete beam with Rebar inside it is known as Reinforced Concrete.
