What is the difference between a subscript and a coefficient in a chemical reaction?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Semenov [28]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The subscripts represents the number of atoms of each individual element in a compound. The coefficients indicates the number of moles each compound are present in the chemical reaction. Numerical coefficients are determined through balancing the chemical equation by comparing each subscripts in both the reactant and product side.

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for
tester [92]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for each of the reactions and decide if the entropy increases decreases or has little to no change:

A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s)

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g)

Answer: A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s) : decreases

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2(g) : decreases

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g): no change

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) : increases

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the system.

Entropy is said to increase when the randomness of the system increase, is said to decrease when the randomness of the system decrease and is said to have no change when the randomness remains same.

In reaction K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s), as gaseous reactant is changed to solid product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g), as 4 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 2 moles of gaseous product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g), as 3 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy has no change.

In reaction  N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) , as 1 mole of gaseous reactant is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy increases.

Which of the following corresponds to an alpha particle?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Atomic number=No. of protons=No. of electrons in ground state(unchanged atom)

Atomic number=13=No. of protons

Atomic mass=no. of protons+no. of neutrons=13+14=27

For isotope no. of proton=13(same atomic number but different mass number are isotopes)

no. of electrons=13

no. of neutrons=14+2=16

Explanation:

hope it's help you
