Aluminium chloride is covalent hence soluble in organic solvent while magnesium chloride being ionic is insoluble in organic solvent
It’s the process of detecting a change of a objects position relative to its surroundings
Answer:
B) exothermic.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, we need to keep in mind that exothermic reactions release heat, so they increase the temperature as the final energy is less than the initial energy; in contrast, endothermic reactions absorb heat, so they decrease the temperature as the final energy is greater than the initial energy.
In such a way, when a dissolution process shows off a negative enthalpy of dissolution, we infer it is an exothermic process due to the aforementioned; therefore, the answer is:
B) exothermic

Answer:
The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: </u>Data given
H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g) ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol
Temperature = 25°C = 25+273 = 298 Kelvin
The initial pressures are:
pH2 = 3.10 atm
pI2 = 1.5 atm
pHI 1.75 atm
<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate ΔG
ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q
with ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol
with R = 8.3145 J/K*mol
with T = 298 Kelvin
Q = the reaction quotient → has the same expression as equilibrium constant → in this case Kp = [p(HI)]²/ [p(H2)] [p(I2)]
with pH2 = 3.10 atm
pI2 = 1.5 atm
pHI 1.75 atm
Q = (3.10²)/(1.5*1.75)
Q = 3.661
ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q
ΔG = 2600 J/mol + 8.3145 J/K*mol * 298 K * ln(3.661)
ΔG =5815.43 J/mol = 5.815 kJ/mol
To be spontaneous, ΔG should be <0.
ΔG >>0 so the reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.
