Answer:

The system makes the transition from nonspontaneous to spontaneous at a temperature of 954.7 K.

Under 954.7 K the reaction is nonspontaneous; more than 954.7 K is the reaction spontaneous.

Explanation:

CH4(g) + 2H2O(g) ⇆ CO2(g) + 4H2(g)

CH4(g) H2O(g) CO2(g) H2(g) ΔH°f (kJ/mol): –74.87 –241.8 –393.5 0

ΔG°f (kJ/mol): –50.81 –228.6 –394.4 0

S°(J/K·mol): 186.1 188.8 213.7 130.7

ΔG<0 to be spontaneous

ΔG = ΔH- TΔS <0

ΔH = ∑nΔH(products) - ∑nΔH(reactant)

ΔH = (-393.5) - (–74.87 + 2*–241.8)

ΔH = 164.97 kJ = 164970 J

ΔS = ∑nΔS(products) - ∑nΔS(reactant)

ΔS = (213.7 + 4*130.7) - (186.1 + 2*188.8)

ΔS = 172.8 J

0 > 164970 J - T* 172.8 J

-164970 J > - T* 172.8 J

954.7< T

The system makes the transition from nonspontaneous to spontaneous at a temperature of 954.7 K.

Under 954.7 K the reaction is nonspontaneous; more than 954.7 K is the reaction spontaneous.

What is the molarity of a solution in which 7.1 g of sodium sulfate is dissolved in enough water to make 100. mL of solution?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.50 M

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of sodium sulfate (solute): 7.1 g
  • Volume of solution: 100 mL

Step 1: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 142.04 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 7.1 grams of sodium sulfate are:

7.1g \times \frac{1mol}{142.02g} = 0.050mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters

We will use the relation 1 L = 1000 mL.

100mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL} =0.100L

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

M = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{liters\ of\ solution} = \frac{0.050mol}{0.100L} =0.50 M

Which main intermolecular force must be overcome to sublime solid NH3?
lys-0071 [83]

Sublimation is the phase transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gaseous phase without passing through the liquid phase.

Here are the three forces that exist between two NH3 molecules:

1- Dispersion forces - these forces exist between ANY two molecules, regardless of anything else.

2- Dipole-dipole interactions - NH3 is a polar molecule with a permanent separation of charge. Each molecule behaves  like a tiny magnet and has + and - poles so 2 NH3 molecules attract each other. Dipole-dipole interactions are stronger than dispersion forces in small molecules.  

3- Hydrogen bonding - H is directly bonded to the extremely electro negative atoms N, O, or F, hence hydrogen atom is nearly stripped off electrons due to the large electro - negativity difference. Hydrogen being a small atom further reduces in size even allowing it to approach other molecules very closely. Here N,O,F gathers more partial negative charge.

Due to the close approach between the molecules and the strong partial charges, hydrogen bonding is generally more important than dipole-dipole interactions.

So the main intermolecular force must be hydrogen bonding.

Referencing the reasoning you used from #1, explain the difference between objects that feel hot and those that
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The temperature of the cold water is lower than the warm one. So, when we put the hand in the warm from the cold water, our hand will absorb heat, causing the hand to feel hot. Thus, we can conclude that the more heat it absorbs, the more hotter it is. Whereas the more heat it releases, the colder it is.
