Explanation:
Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of system. Basically it refers to how random a system is.
Gong through the options.
A. The phase change is from solid to liquid. Liquid has a greater degree of disorderliness compared to solid hence entropy is increasing.
B. The phase change is from solid to gas. Gas particles has a greater degree of disorderliness compared to solid hence entropy is increasing.
C. The phase change is from aqueous to liquid. Aqueous solutions has a greater degree of disorderliness compared to liquid hence entropy is decreasing.
D. The reactant side has; solid + gas. In the product side, there is only gas. The product side has a greater degree of disorderliness hence the entropy is increasing.
E. The entropy of the product is greater than the entropy of the reactants hence entropy is increasing.
F. The phase change is from aqueous to solid. Aqueous solutions has a greater degree of disorderliness compared to solid hence entropy is decreasing.
Answer:
Explanation:
Two things that can be deduced by this finding would be that the location was most likely a very muddy area with lots of clay minerals, as well as having lots of crustal movements. This is because slate is created when crustal movement buries clay minerals and other materials in the crust of the Earth. This is later melted and squeezed together from the sheer heat that is applied being so far underground. Therefore, creating what we now know as Slate.
Answer:
pH reducing agent for acidic soils
Explanation:
Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.
Answer:
C. If a solar cell breaks, it releases chemicals and can harm humans.
