6 0

Explanation:

No. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different atomic masses (due to the different number of neutrons)

For example, carbon exists as carbon-12 and carbon-14, which both have 6 protons but have 6 and 8 neutrons respectively.

Consider the reaction 2CO(g) + O2(g)2CO2(g) Using standard thermodynamic data at 298K, calculate the entropy change for the surr

Marizza181 [45]

Answer: The value of $\Delta S^o$ for the surrounding when given amount of CO is reacted is 432.52 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy change is defined as the difference in entropy of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles.

The equation used to calculate entropy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta S^o_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta S^o_{(reactant)}]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2CO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)$

The equation for the entropy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta S^o_{(CO_2(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta S^o_{(O_2(g))})+(2\times \Delta S^o_{(CO(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta S^o_{(CO_2(g))}=213.74J/K.mol\\\Delta S^o_{(O_2)}=205.14J/K.mol\\\Delta S^o_{(CO)}=197.674J/K.mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta S^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (213.74))]-[(1\times (205.14))+(2\times (197.674))]\\\\\Delta S^o_{rxn}=-173.008J/K$

Entropy change of the surrounding = - (Entropy change of the system) = -(-173.008) J/K = 173.008 J/K

We are given:

Moles of CO gas reacted = 2.25 moles

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 2 moles of CO is reacted, the entropy change of the surrounding will be 173.008 J/K

So, when 2.25 moles of CO is reacted, the entropy change of the surrounding will be = $\frac{173.008}{1}\times 2.25=432.52J/K$

Hence, the value of $\Delta S^o$ for the surrounding when given amount of CO is reacted is 432.52 J/K

What is the difference between a proton, neutron, and electron?

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

proton :

a particale or atom containing a postive charge

nuutron

a particale or atom that contains a negative charge

electron :

a particale or atom with a negative chrage.

Explanation:

proton:

a stable subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude to that of an electron, but of opposite sign.

nuetron:

a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.

elcetron:

a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
