To determine if the reaction will be spontaneous or not at this temperature, we need to calculate the Gibbs's energy using the following formula:
<u>If the Gibbs's energy is negative, the reaction will be spontaneous, but if it's positive it will not.</u>
Calculating the :
Now, other factor we need to determine is the sign of the S variation. When talking about gases, the more moles you have in your system the more enthropic it is.
In this reaction you go from 7 moles to 8 moles of gas, so you can say that you are going from one enthropy to another higher than the first one. This results in:
If the variation of S is positive, the Gibbs's energy will be negative always and the reaction will be spontaneous.
Methane is known to be a compound which has two elements, carbon and hydrogen. It has a central atom which is surrounded by four hydrogen atoms. It's chemical formula is CH4.
Methane's outer atoms are dipoles and are in the same direction. This makes the overall molecule non-polar. The compound itself has non-polar bonds and it is non-polar itself.
B.) If sodium carbonate is added to vinegar, the reaction will absorb heat.
Explanation:
A.) is incorrect because this is not testable. Rather, it is just an opinion that cannot be proven correct or incorrect.
B.) is correct because this statement is testable. Tests need to be run to determine the accuracy of the statement.
C.) is incorrect because this statement explains something that does not need to be tested. It is an example of a physical change when one tears a piece of paper.
D.) is incorrect because this is already a true statement. It is obvious that not all reactions absorb/release heat. While tests could be run to further prove this statement true, it is already considered accurate.
See, petroleum (i.e. oil) is transformed into gasoline.
"Sometimes, petroleum and crude oil are used to mean the same thing, but petroleum itself is a broad range of petroleum products including crude oil itself. We use the term 'petroleum products after crude oil is refined in a factory." - <span>www.eschooltoday.com/energy/non-renewable-energy/what-is-petroleum.html</span>
