We are given the equation to use which is:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
We are also given that:
ΔG = 173.3 kJ
T = 303 degrees kelvin
ΔH = 180.7 kJ
Substitute with these givens in the above equation to get ΔS as follows:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
173.3 = 180.7 - 303ΔS
303ΔS = 180.7 - 173.3
303ΔS = 7.4
ΔS = 7.4 / 303 = 0.02442 kJ/K which is equivalent to 24.42 J/k
Based on the above calculations, the correct choice is:
D. 24.42 J/K
Answer:
Total percent of magnesium in sample = 25.5%
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of magnesium = 24 gram
Mass of chlorine = 70 gram
Find:
Total percent of magnesium in sample = ?
Computation:
Total mass of sample = Mass of magnesium + Mass of chlorine
Total mass of sample = 24 gram + 70 gram
Total mass of sample = 94 gram
Total percent of magnesium in sample = [Mass of magnesium / Total mass of sample]100
Total percent of magnesium in sample = [24/94]100
Total percent of magnesium in sample = [0.255]100
Total percent of magnesium in sample = 25.5%
Answer:
Likely to gain electrons
Explanation:
The atom shown is likely to gain additional electrons to complete its electronic configuration.
- Since this is a neutral specie, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- The atom has 16 electrons
- the number of valence electrons is 6
- If the atom gains two additional electrons, the octet configuration is attained
- Also, the atom can lose 6 electrons to become an octet
The atom will prefer to gain additional 2 electrons to give an octet configuration.
