Based on the standard free energies of formation, which of the following reactions represent a feasible way to synthesize the pr

yuradex [85]

Explanation:

According the equation of Gibb's free energy -

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

∆G = is the change in gibb's free energy

∆H = is the change in enthalpy

T = temperature

∆S = is the change in entropy .

And , the sign of the ΔG , determines whether the reaction is Spontaneous or non Spontaneous or at equilibrium ,

i.e. ,

• ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous

• ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous

• ΔG = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium

N₂(g) + H₂(g) → N₂H₄ (g) ; ΔG⁰f = 159.3 kJ/mol

ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous , the reaction is not feasible in the forward direction

2Na(s) + O₂(g) → Na₂O₂ (s) ; ΔG⁰ f = − 447.7kJ/mol

ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous , the reaction is feasible in the forward direction .

C(s) + 2S(s) → CS₂ (g) ; ΔG⁰f = 67.1 kJ/mol

ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous , the reaction is not feasible in the forward direction

Ca(s) + 12 O₂ (g) → CaO (s) ; ΔG⁰f = −604.0 kJ/mol

ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous , the reaction is feasible in the forward direction .

Kernels of corn are heated and become popcorn. Why is this a chemical change?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

When popcorn is popped, liquid inside the kernel is changed to steam. Pressure from the steam builds up inside the kernel. When the pressure reached a critical stage the kernel pops turning itself inside out. This is a physical change.
