Answer:

The entropy decreases.

Explanation:

The change in entropy in a chemical reaction is lower when the moles of the gas product decrease. In the same way, the change in entropy is higher when the moles of the gas product increase.

For the reaction:

K(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ KO₂(s)

The number of moles of gas reactant is one (1 mole of K and 1 mole of O₂) and there are not moles of gas in product. The change in moles of gas is 1.

As the number of moles of product decrease <em>the entropy decreses.</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

To gain an idea as to how many atoms are in a gram or so of copper, use the larger balance
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must understand the relationship between mass of a substance and the number of atoms.

Atoms are the smallest indivisible particles of any matter. A substance can be made up of several number of atoms in their space.

The mass of any substance is a function of the amount of atoms its contains.

The mass of a substance is related in chemistry to the amount of atoms its contains using the parameter called the number of moles.

A mole is the amount of substance that contains the Avogadro's number of particles. This number is 6.02  x 10²³ particles. The particles here can be protons, neutrons, electrons, atoms e.t.c.

Now,

             Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

          Molar mass of copper  = 63.6g/mole

         Number of moles  = \frac{2}{63.6}  = 0.03mole

Since 1 mole of a substance contains  6.02  x 10²³atoms

        0.03 mole of copper will contain 0.03 x  6.02  x 10²³atoms

                                                    = 1.89 x 10²² atoms

He needs to add 1.89 x 10²² atoms to make 2g of the sample.

An organic compound in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two different carbon atoms is a ketone. The ketones are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group (C=O) is bonded to two carbon atom. A carbonyl group is a carbon-oxygen double bond. Ketones are of great importance in industry and in biology, <span>as solvents, polymer precursors, and pharmaceuticals.</span>
