5 0

Answer:

B => Mg° => Mg⁺² + 2e⁻

Explanation:

2Mg° + O₂ => 2MgO  rewrite => Mg° + 1/2O₂ => 2MgO

Oxidation Half Rxn => Mg° => Mg⁺² + 2e⁻

Reduction Half Rxn => 1/2O₂ + 2e⁻ => 2O⁻

__________________________________-

FYI Note =>  For half-reactions one always finds the electrons listed on the product side of the reaction for oxidation reactions and for reduction reactions on the reactant side.

During the isothermal heat addition process of a Carnot cycle, 900 kJ of heat is added to the working fluid from a source at 400
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

the entropy change of the fluid during the process process is is 1.337 kJ/K, the change for the source is -1.337 kJ/K and the total entropy change is 0

Explanation:

since the Carnot cycle is a reversible cycle, the entropy change is related with the heat exchanged through:

ΔS =∫dQ/T

since the temperature remains constant

ΔS =∫dQ/T=(1/T)*∫dQ = Q/T

Q= heat added to the system

T= absolute temperature = 400°C= 673 K

therefore

ΔS = Q/T = 900 kJ/ 673 K = 1.337 kJ/K

ΔS working fluid = 1.337 kJ/K

since the process is reversible, the entropy change of the universe (total entropy change)  is 0 (there is no entropy generation). thus

ΔS universe = ΔS working fluid + ΔS source = 0

ΔS source= -ΔS working fluid = -1.337 kJ/K
