Answer: D. An increase in entropy
Explanation:
Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an disordered arrangement to an ordered arrangement, the entropy is said to increase and vice versa.
For a reaction to be spontaneous, the enthalpy of the solution must decrease and the entropy must increase.
To overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid solute to dissolve in water, an increase in entropy would make the reaction spontaneous as the system would move to a more disordered state.
Answer:
33300J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of ice = 100g
Unknown:
Amount of energy = ?
Solution:
This is a phase change process from solid to liquid. In this case, the latent heat of melting of ice is 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg.
So;
H = mL
m is the mass
L is the latent heat of melting ice
Now, insert the parameters and solve;
H = mL
mass from gram to kilogram;
100g gives 0.1kg
H = 0.1 x 3.33 x 10⁵ = 33300J
Answer:
4 moles
Explanation:
From the equation 1 mole of C6H1206 produces 6 moles of CO2.
Therefore the answer is 24/6 = 4 moles of C6H1206.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Temperature is defined as a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.
When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases as the temperature increases; hence the particles of the substance moves faster with increasing temperature.
When heat is withdrawn from a liquid, the temperature decreases and the average kinetic energy of the molecules decreases. The molecules become less energetic hence the liquid changes into solid
