A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f
viva [34]

Answer: -2.373  x 10^-24J/K(particles

Explanation: Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness of a system which is a function of the state of a system and depends on the number of the random microstates present.

The entropy change for a particle in a system  depends on the initial and final states of a system and is given by Boltzmann equation as  

S = k ln(W) .

where S =Entropy

K IS Boltzmann constant ==1.38 x 10 ^-23J/K

W is the number of microstates available to the system.

 The  change in entropy is given as

S2 -S1 = kln W2 - klnW1

dS = k ln (W2/W1)

where w1 and w2 are initial and final microstates

from the question, W2(final) = 0.842 x W1(initial), so:

= 1.38*10-23 ln (0.842)

=1.38*10-23  x -0.1719

= -2.373  x 10^-24J/K(particles)

Bomb calorimetry is a poor choice to determine the number of nutritional Calories in food; it consistently overestimates the Cal
maw [93]

Answer:

A) dietary fiber isn't used by the body.

Explanation:

The food we eat contains certain nutritional contents that provides energy, measured in calories (CAL) to the body. A procedure called BOMB CALORIMETRY can be used to determine the energy contents of these foods. The energy-supplying macromolecules contained in food substances we eat are carbohydrate, protein, fats etc.

Bomb calorimetry uses the method of burning the food substance in a device called bomb calorimeter, and measure the caloric content of the burnt food. Bomb calorimetry measures all the present calories in a food substance, which can include dietary fibers. Due to this reason, it is considered a poor choice in determining the number of nutritional calories in a food substance.

Dietary fibers are indigestible carbohydrates that cannot be broken down and used by the body. They pass along the alimentary canal until they are egested. Hence, they are no source of nutrients to the body. Since bomb calorimetry measures all calories including dietary fibers, it is said to overestimate the caloric content of food substances.

Solutions with a higher concentration of solutes than the concentration inside the cell are: Solutions with a higher concentrati
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution is one in which the concentration of the solute is greater than that of those inside the cell. This means that there is a solution with a higher concentration of solute compared to what is obtainable inside the cell environment.

Hence, we say that the solutions are hypertonic since they contain essentially solutes that are more concentrated than those inside the cell
