Sedbober [7]

Answer:

ΔH > 0; ΔS >0; ΔG = 0

Not spontaneous when T < 100 °C;

Equilibrium when T = 100 °C

Spontaneous when T > 100 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is

H₂O(ℓ) ⇌ H₂O(g)

ΔH > 0 (positive), because we must add heat to boil water

ΔS > 0 (positive), because changing from a liquid to a gas increases the disorder

ΔG = 0, because the liquid-vapour equilibrium process is at equilibrium at 100 °C

ΔG = ΔH – TΔS

Both ΔH and ΔS are positive.

If T = 100 °C, ΔG =0. ΔH = TΔS, and the system is at equilibrium.

If T < 100 °C, the ΔH term will predominate, because T has decreased below the equilibrium value.

ΔG > 0. The process is not spontaneous below 100 °C.

If T > 100 °C, the TΔS term will predominate, because T has increased above the equilibrium value.

ΔG < 0. The process is spontaneous above 100 °C.

Find the volume in milliliters of 2.00 mol of an ideal gas at 36°C and a pressure of 1120 torr.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

V = 34430 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume in mL = ?

Number of moles of gas = 2.00 mol

Temperature = 36°C (36+273= 309K)

Pressure of gas = 1120 torr

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = 2.00 mol ×62.4 torr • L/mol · K × 309K / 1120 torr

V = 38563.2 torr • L / 1120 torr

V = 34.43 L

L to mL

34.43 L ×1000 mL / 1 L

34430 mL

When the following oxidation–reduction reaction in acidic solution is balanced, what is the lowest whole-number coefficient for

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

b. 16, reactant side

Explanation:

Let's consider the following redox reaction.

MnO₄⁻(aq) + I⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + I₂(s)

We can balance it using the ion-electron method.

Step 1: Identify both half-reactions

Reduction: MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq)

Oxidation: I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)

Step 2: Perform the mass balance, adding H⁺(aq) and H₂O(l) where appropriate

MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)

Step 3: Perform the charge balance, adding electrons where appropriate

MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s) + 2 e⁻

Step 4: Multiply both half-reactions by numbers so that the number of electrons gained and lost are equal

2 × (MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l))

5 × (2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s) + 2 e⁻)

Step 5: Add both half-reactions and cancel what is repeated on both sides

2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 16 H⁺(aq) + 10 e⁻ + 10 I⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 I₂(s) + 10 e⁻

The balanced reaction is:

2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 16 H⁺(aq) + 10 I⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 I₂(s)

Several tomato plants are grown indoors next to a sunny window. The plants receive water and fertilizer and remain on the window

mrs_skeptik [129]

You can see my previous answer to this very same question on brainly.com/question/11374210.

The answer is: option D. Response to environment.

Explanation:

As explained, plants (organisms in general) respond to the stimulus provided by the environment.

Such behavior is named tropism. Tropism may be positive or negative.

When the plant's stem bends toward the window, it is showing positive phototropism, which means that the plant growth response to light such that the stems bend toward light, permiting the leaves to receive more light.

I also mention that while the plant's stems posses positive phototropism they posses negative gravitropism and the roots posses positive gravitropism.

Gravitropism is the response of the plant growth to gravity.

Stems grow away from gravity meaning that this is negative gravitropism, but roots grow toward gravity which is positive gravitropism
