Which sphere forms Earth's outermost layer?

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetoff [14.1K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: I believe the answer is A.

Explanation: Well, the lithosphere is rocks and earth, the hydrosphere makes up all the water on Earth, the biosphere is us, (living things,) and the atmosphere is the air that surrounds us and our planet. So if you go in order, it's basically lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and then atmosphere.

When PCl5 solidifies it forms PCl4+ cations and PCl6– anions. According to valence bond theory,
rewona [7]

Hey there!

No of hybrid orbitals , H = ( V +S - C + A ) / 2

Where H = no . of hybrid orbitals

V = Valence of the central atom = 5

S = No . of single valency atoms = 4

C = No . of cations = 1

A = No . of anions = 0

For PCl4 +

Plug the values we get H = ( 5+4-1+0) / 2

H =  4 ---> sp3 hybridization

sp3 hybrid orbitals are used by phosphorous in the PCl4+ cations

Answer C

Hope that helps!

An ideal gas contained in a piston-cylinder assembly is compressed isothermally in an internally reversible process.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a) \Delta S

b) entropy of the sistem equal to a), entropy of the universe grater than a).

Explanation:

a) The change of entropy for a reversible process:

\delta S=\frac{\delta Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{Q}{T}

The energy balance:

\delta U=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W

If the process is isothermical the U doesn't change:

0=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W

\delta Q= \delta W

Q= W

The work:

W=\int_{V1}^{V2}P*dV

If it is an ideal gas:

P=\frac{n*R*T}{V}

W=\int_{V1}^{V2}\frac{n*R*T}{V}*dV

Solving:

W=n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)

Replacing:

\Delta S=\frac{n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)}{T}

\Delta S=n*R*ln(V2/V1)}

Given that it's a compression: V2<V1 and ln(V2/V1)<0. So:

\Delta S

b) The entropy change of the sistem will be equal to the calculated in a), but the change of entropy of the universe will be 0 in a) (reversible process) and in b) has to be positive given that it is an irreversible process.

Dalton assumed that all atoms of the same element were identical in all their properties. Explain why this assumption is not val
jeka57 [31]
This assumption is not valid because, there are some elements which exist in two or more forms;  they have the same atomic number but differ in their mass number, which meas that they possess different number of neutrons. These type of element are called isotopes. Isotope have the same atomic number  and similar physical and chemical properties but they have different number of neutrons and therefore possess different masses.
