I disagree. Carbon is not a group 18 element. This is incorrect because elements closer to the top of the group are less reactive than those at the bottom of the group. Group 18 elements are noble gases and carbon, a group 14 element, is a non metal.
<span>Van der waals interactions are the electrical interactions between two or more atoms and even molecules but the inter-molecular attractions between the molecules are not exactly strong, in fact they are the weakest. And these Van der waals interactions are happened when electrons are not symmetrical distributed in a molecule.</span>
Answer : The mass of iron needed is 29.5 grams.
Explanation : Given,
Mass of
= 12 g
Molar mass of
= 32 g/mol
First we have to calculate the moles of
.


Now we have to calculate the moles of 
The balanced chemical equation is:

From the reaction, we conclude that
As, 3 moles of
react with 4 moles of 
So, 0.375 mole of
react with
mole of 
Now we have to calculate the mass of 

Molar mass of
= 59 g/mole

Therefore, the mass of iron needed is 29.5 grams.
Answer:
The phase transition from a solid to a gas.
Explanation:
Entropy is related to the moles of gases available. The more gaseous moles, the higher the entropy.
<em>Identify the process in which the entropy increases.</em>
- <em>the phase transition from a solid to a gas</em>. YES. There are more gaseous moles available so entropy increases.
- <em>a decrease in the number of moles of a gas during a chemical reaction</em>. NO. This causes a decrease in entropy.
- <em>the phase transition from a liquid to a solid</em>. NO. There is almost no change in the entropy in this process.
- <em>the phase transition from a gas to a liquid</em>. NO. There is a decrease in entropy in this process.
- <em>the phase transition from a gas to a solid</em>. NO. There is a decrease in entropy in this process.
Sorry, haven't came across that as of yet.
