Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A spontaneous reaction is defined as the process which tends to occur on its own. And, a non-spontaneous reaction is defined as a process for the completion of which we have to provide certain conditions.
For example, ice melting at
is spontaneous primarily due to the increase in molecular disorder (dispersal of matter). Also, melting of ice is taking place on its own without any external force.
It is not necessary that all exothermic reactions will be exothermic in nature.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement all exothermic reactions are spontaneous, is false.
Answer:
dium (a liquid or a gas). This pattern of motion typically consists of random fluctuations in a particle's position inside a fluid sub-domain, followed by a relocation to another sub-domain. Each relocation is followed by more fluctuations within the new closed volume. This pattern describes a fluid at thermal equilibrium, defined by a given temperature. Within such a fluid, there exists no preferential direction of flow (as in transport phenomena). More specifically, the fluid's overall linear and angular momenta remain null over time. The kinetic energies of the molecular Brownian motions, together with those of molecular rotations and vibrations, sum up to the caloric component of a fluid's internal energy (the Equipartition theorem).
Explanation:
The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.
While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.
In this equation,
CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.
By balancing the equation, we will get:
3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O
Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.
Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.
So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .
