The release of free energy drives the spontaneous reaction.
Spontaneity can be <span>determined
using the change in </span>Gibbs free energy
(the thermodynamic potencial):
delta G=delta H – T*delta
S
where delta H is the enthalpy and delta S is the entropy.
The direction (the sign) of delta G depends of the changes
of enthalpy and entropy. If delta G is negative then the process is
spontaneous.
In our case, both delta H and delta S are negative values, the
process as said is spontaneous which means that it may proceed in the forward
direction.
The water creates less friction between your foot and the ground
Answer:
The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.
Answer:
D
friction acts in the opposite direction of motion but does not affect the motion of the object
The gravity on Neptune is 11.15 m/s²
the gravity on earth is 9.81 m/s²
divide the Neptune and earth gravity we get 1.13
which means object on neptune is 1.13 heavier than earth
yield, weigh of the object on neptune is 1.13×15=17.04kg
