Answer:
Option C is correct
Explanation:
Entropy is defined as the randomness in a system. In nature, a system tends to have high entropy. The higher the entropy , the spontaneous the reactions would be. As a system loses energy, it becomes more ordered and less random. Hence, as the reaction proceeds in a system, the system has higher energy/entropy and less order.
Hence, option c is correct
Answer:
Likely to gain electrons
Explanation:
The atom shown is likely to gain additional electrons to complete its electronic configuration.
- Since this is a neutral specie, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- The atom has 16 electrons
- the number of valence electrons is 6
- If the atom gains two additional electrons, the octet configuration is attained
- Also, the atom can lose 6 electrons to become an octet
The atom will prefer to gain additional 2 electrons to give an octet configuration.
A double replacement is when the reactants switch with their opposite charge. For example, AB + CD = AD + BC.
In this case the given is K2SO4 + Pb(NO3)2 = ____ + ____
The answers is PbSO4 and KNO3 would expect the products of this reaction.
Answer: Solids
Explanation:
In the solid state, the individual particles of a substance are in fixed positions with respect to each other because there is not enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular interactions between the particles. As a result, solids have a definite shape and volume.
