Predict whether ΔS° is greater than, less than, or approximately zero for each of the following reactions, and explain your choi
inna [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Entropy -

In a system, the randomness is measured by the term entropy .

Randomness basically refers as a form of energy that can not be used for any work.

The change in entropy is given by amount heat per change in temperature.

  • When solid is converted to gas entropy increases,

As the molecules in solid state are tightly packed and has more force of attraction between the molecules, but as it is converted to gas, the force of attraction between the molecule decreases and hence entropy increases.

So,

The particles of the substance , if are tightly held by strong force of attraction will decrease the entropy ,

And

If the particles are loosely held , the entropy will increase .  

  • If in a reaction , more number of gaseous atoms are present in the product side , entropy will increase , i.e. Δ°S > 0
  • When liquid is converted to solid entropy decreases,  

As the molecules in liquid state are loosely packed and has less force of attraction between the molecules, but as it is converted to solid, the force of attraction between the molecule increases and hence entropy decreases.

  • If in a reaction , less number of gaseous atoms are present in the product side , entropy will decrease , i.e. Δ°S < 0

From the question ,

( a )  NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

Gaseous atoms -

Reactant - 1 + 5 = 6

Product - 4 + 6 = 10 ,

Hence ,

More number of gaseous atoms are present in the product side , So ,

entropy will increase , i.e. Δ°S > 0

( b ) CH₄(g) + 2 O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(g)

Gaseous atoms -

Reactant - 1 + 2 = 3

Product - 1 + 2 = 3 ,

Since ,

Both the side the value of gaseous atoms are , hence , Δ°S = 0 .

( c ) CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

Gaseous atoms -

Reactant = 0

Product - 0 + 1 = 1 ,

Since ,

Hence ,

More number of gaseous atoms are present in the product side , So ,

entropy will increase , i.e. Δ°S > 0

Write down five things that you personally could do in your day-to-day life to help with the problem of climate change. Write do
beks73 [17]
Before that, we need to know what causes climate change. One of the main reasons are the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere, it traps heat but allow more heat to enter the earth, therefore climate increases over the years.

1. Set air conditioner to a higher temperature (eg. 25°C) or turn on fans instead.
Operating AC can use a lot of energy, and these energy is produced by burning if fossil fuels which releases carbon dioxide.

2. Take public transports instead of cars. The more private cars there are, the more pollutants it release, these pollutants includes carbon dioxide.

3. Turn off all the lights / electrical appliances when we leave a place. Again, electrical appliances require energy which is produced by burning of fossil fuels that gives out carbon dioxide.

4. Recycle and reuse paper that is only used on one side. Papers are extracted from trees and one main function of trees is to absorb carbon dioxide from the air. If many trees are cut, the amount of carbon dioxide in air would increase.

5. Do the laundry only if you have clothes full for the machine. If the washing machine is not full and you're starting it up, it really uses a lot of energy and water, which all again it triggers the release of carbon dioxide.

Pls help me with my homework
mafiozo [28]

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws which explains that at constant pressure, the temperature and volume of a gas are directly proportional to each other. According to kinetic theory, as temperature rises the kinetic energy of gas also increases proportionally
