The entropy of the process in which the individual ions first leave the crystal lattice is positive while the entropy of the process whereby the each ion becomes surrounded by a cluster of polar water molecules is negative.
<h3>What is entropy?</h3>
The term entropy has to do with the degree of disorder in a system. The higher the entropy of the system, the more the disorderliness of the system.
Now, the entropy of the process in which the individual ions first leave the crystal lattice is positive while the entropy of the process whereby the each ion becomes surrounded by a cluster of polar water molecules is negative.

Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium....etc have two valence electrons
first we have to find the empirical formula of the compound
empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound
for 100 g of the compound
N O
mass 46.7 g 53.3 g
number of 46.7 g/ 14 g/mol 53.3 g/ 16 g/mol
moles = 3.34 mol = 3.33 mol
divide by the least number of moles
3.34/3.33 = 1.00 3.33/ 3,33 = 1.00
therefore number of atoms are
N - 1
O - 1
empirical formula is - NO
mass of empirical unit - 14 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 30 g
molecular formula is actual composition of elements in the compound
molecular mass - 60.01 g/mol
number of empirical units = molecular mass / empirical unit mass
= 60.01 g/mol / 30 g = 2
there are 2 empirical units
2(NO)
molecular formula = N₂O₂
One of the many awe-inspiring things about algae, Professor Greene explains, is that they can grow between ten and 100 times faster than land plants. In view of this speedy growth rate – combined with the fact they can thrive virtually anywhere in the right conditions – growing marine microalgae could provide a variety of solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.
Take, global warming. Algae sequesters CO2, as we have learned, but owing to the fact they grow faster than land plants, can cover wider areas and can be utilised in bioreactors, they can actually absorb CO2 more effectively than land plants. AI company Hypergiant Industries, for instance, say their algae bioreactor was 400 times more efficient at taking in CO2 than trees.
And it’s not just their nutritional credentials which could solve humanity’s looming food crisis, but how they are produced. Marine microalgae grow in seawater, which means they do not rely on arable land or freshwater, both of which are in limited supply. Professor Greene believes the use of these organisms could therefore release almost three million km2 of cropland for reforestation, and also conserve one fifth of global freshwater
