Answer:

The greenhouse effect is where radiation from the planet's atmosphere warms the surface of the earth. The greenhouse gas in the planets atmosphere radiates through all angles on the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface. When the Sun’s energy reaches the Earth’s atmosphere, some of it is reflected to outer space and the rest is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone. The absorbed energy warms the atmosphere and the surface of the Earth, allowing life on Earth to exist.

Heating carvone with aqueous sulfuric acid converts it into carvacrol. The mechanism involves the following steps:

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

In this question, we have to start with the protonation of the double bond. In carvone we have two double bonds, so, we have to decide first which one would be protonated.

The problem states that the terminal alkene is the one that would is protonated. Therefore, we have to do the protonation in the double bond at the bottom to produce the carbocation number 1. Then, a hydride shift takes place to produce the carbocation number 2. A continuation, an elimination reaction takes place to produce the conjugated diene. Then the diene is protonated at the carbonyl group and with an elimination reaction of an hydrogen in the alpha carbon we can obtain carvacol.

. Determine the standard free energy change, ɔ(G p for the formation of S2−(aq) given that the ɔ(G p for Ag+(aq) and Ag2S(s) are

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: The standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol

Explanation:

We are given:

$K_{sp}\text{ of }Ag_2S=8\times 10^{-51}$

Relation between standard Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant follows:

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = temperature = $25^oC=[273+25]K=298K$

K = equilibrium constant or solubility product = $8\times 10^{-51}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/K.mol)\times 298K\times \ln (8\times 10^{-51})\\\\\Delta G^o=285793.9J/mol=285.794kJ$

For the given chemical equation:

$Ag_2S(s)\rightleftharpoons 2Ag^+(aq.)+S^{2-}(aq.)$

The equation used to calculate Gibbs free change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(reactant)}]$

The equation for the Gibbs free energy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))}=-39.5kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))}=77.1kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o=285.794kJ$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$285.794=[(2\times 77.1)+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times (-39.5))]\\\\\Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))=92.094J/mol$

Hence, the standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol
