The condition at which the entropy of a pure solid will be zero is<span> when a substance is at absolute zero. Absolute zero is </span><span>the lowest temperature that is theoretically possible, at which the motion of particles which constitutes heat would be minimal. It is zero on the Kelvin scale, equivalent to −273.15°C.</span>

Plants and algae that convert sunlight to food energy are called

borishaifa [10]

The correct answer is the first choice given. Plants and algaes are producers. They are called as such since they produce their own food by using the energy from the sun, CO2 and water to form glucose as their food.

What is the volume of a liquid that has a density 3.65g/ml and a mass of 5.61g

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

$volume = \frac{mass}{density} \\$

From the question we have

$volume = \frac{5.61}{3.65} \\ =1.536986...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Which statement is true for an open system?

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Before we get into the first law of thermodynamics we need to understand the relation between heat and work and the concept of internal energy. Just like mass, energy is always conserved i.e. it can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another. Internal energy is a thermodynamic property of the system that refers to the energy associated with the molecules of the system which includes kinetic energy and potential energy.

Whenever a system goes through any change due to interaction of heat, work and internal energy, it is followed by numerous energy transfer and conversions. However, during these transfers, there is no net change in the total energy.

Similarly, if we look at the first law of thermodynamics it affirms that heat is a form of energy. What it means is that the thermodynamic processes are governed by the principle of conservation of energy. The first law of thermodynamics is also sometimes referred to as the Law of Conservation of Energy

How many electrons in an atom can have each of the following quantum number or sublevel designations?

stepan [7]

Answer :

(a) Number of electrons in an atoms is, 6

(b) Number of electrons in an atoms is, 2

(c) Number of electrons in an atoms is, 14

Explanation :

There are 4 quantum numbers :

Principle Quantum Numbers : It describes the size of the orbital. It is represented by n. n = 1,2,3,4....

Azimuthal Quantum Number : It describes the shape of the orbital. It is represented as 'l'. The value of l ranges from 0 to (n-1). For l = 0,1,2,3... the orbitals are s, p, d, f...

Magnetic Quantum Number : It describes the orientation of the orbitals. It is represented as . The value of this quantum number ranges from . When l = 2, the value of

Spin Quantum number : It describes the direction of electron spin. This is represented as . The value of this is for upward spin and for downward spin.

Number of electrons in a sublevel = 2(2l+1)

(a) 4p

n = 4

Value of 'l' for 'p' orbital : l = 1

At l = 1, $m_l=+1,0,-1$

Number of electrons in an atoms = 2(2l+1) = 2(2×1+1) = 6

(b) n = 3, l = 1, ml = +1

As we know that, a sublevel of 'p' orbital can accommodate 6 electrons but 1 orbital can accommodate only 2 electrons. So,

Number of electrons in an atoms for (ml = +1) = 2

(b) n = 5, l = 3

Number of electrons in an atoms = 2(2l+1) = 2(2×3+1) = 14
