Answer:
10/24
Simplified: 5/12
Explanation:
Well first, let's convert years into months
1 year = 12 months which means 2 years = 24 months
In fraction form we would write this as 10/24
If the question asks for it to be simplified, then simply
Both 10 and 24 evenly fit 2
Therefore, divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2
10 ÷ 2 / 24 ÷ 2
5/12
This can no longer be simplified
Answer:
An increase in entropy
Explanation:
In ice, the molecules are very well ordered because of the H-bonds. As ice melts, the intermolecular forces are broken (requires energy), but the order is interrupted (so entropy increases). Water is more random than ice, so ice spontaneously melts at room temperature.
Just think about this rationally. Melting ice (or anything) will require heat put in (this is called the latent heat of fusion), so you automatically know that the change in enthalpy is going to be positive. In order to make the reaction spontaneous, delta G, the Gibbs free energy has to be negative. So now look at the formula Delta(G) = Delta(H) - T*Delta*(S). If you know that g is negative, and H is positive, then it is only possible if -T*Delta(S) is negative. If that is positive, then Delta(S) has to be positive. So theres your answer :). An increase in entropy
Answer:
K⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) → KCl (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)
Explanation:
KF (aq) + HCl (aq) → KCl (aq) + HF (aq)
KF (aq) → K⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)
HCl (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)
KCl (aq) → K⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)
HF (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)
Sodium has 1 valence electron and chlorine has 7 valence electrons and the goal is to get t 8 valence electrons then they attract together, forming table salt.
