Complete question:

ΔU for a van der Waals gas increases by 475 J in an expansion process, and the magnitude of w is 93.0 J. calculate the magnitude of q for the process.

Answer:

The magnitude of q for the process 568 J.

Explanation:

Given;

change in internal energy of the gas, ΔU = 475 J

work done by the gas, w = 93 J

heat added to the system, = q

During gas expansion process, heat is added to the gas.

Apply the first law of thermodynamic to determine the magnitude of heat added to the gas.

ΔU = q - w

q = ΔU + w

q = 475 J + 93 J

q = 568 J

Therefore, the magnitude of q for the process 568 J.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "C) The reaction is spontaneous at high temperatures."
Since dH is positive and dS ~ 0 then -TdS ~ 0, meaning dG will always be greater than 0 so t<span>he reaction is spontaneous at high temperatures.</span>

An ice cube melts to become water in a cup. how will the ice cube and the water be the same?

kenny6666 [7]

They will stay the same through the laws of conservation of mass even when they have changed state so they will have the reactant of Ice will be the same amount as the product of water

How many mols of a 3M NaOH solution are in 1L of the solution?

Alex

To calculate this, we need the Molarity formula. This formula tell us that Molarity, which is a concentration unit, is equal to the number of moles divided by the volume. In this question we already have the Molarity and the Volume, so let's build our equation:

C = n/V (You can see Molarity with the letter "C" because it means concentration)

3 = n/1

n = 1 * 3

n = 3 moles of NaOH

Carbon diselenide (CSe2) is a liquid at room temperature. The normal boiling point is 125°C, and the melting point is –45.5°C. C

Tema [17]

Answer:

Explanation: The strengths of the inter molecular forces varies as follows -

$CO_{2}< CS_{2} < CSe_{2}$

The normal boiling point of CSe2 is 125°C and that of CS2 is 116°C, which explains the trend that as we move down the group, the boiling point of e compound increases as the size increases.

This usually happens because larger and heavier atoms have a tendency to exhibit greater inter molecular strengths due to the increase in size . As the size increases, the valence shell electrons move far away from the nucleus, thus has a greater tendency to attract the temporary dipoles.

And larger the inter molecular forces, more tightly the electrons will be held to each other and thus more thermal energy would be required to break the bonds between them.
