Answer:
Sound waves are travelling vibrations of particles in media such as air, water or metal. So it stands to reason that they cannot travel through empty space, where there are no atoms or molecules to vibrate.
Explanation:
Acid is anything which will give H+ to other species.
Have a look at the equations given.
In A) HCl changes to Cl- by giving its H+ to H2O. So HCl is an acid.
In B) HCO3- changes to H2CO3^2- by accepting H+. It did Not give its H+ rather it takes from other species. So it is not an acid at all.
In C) H2O is just breaking to H+ and OH-. It is not giving H+ to other species. So it is also not an acid in this reaction.
In D) HCOOH is giving its H+ to H2O. So it is also an acid.
So out of all reactions with water. The only two species are acting as acid with water namely HCl and HCOOH.
Out of these two HCl is very strong acid but HCOOH is a weak acid.
So the answer is D
We are given the equation to use which is:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
We are also given that:
ΔG = 173.3 kJ
T = 303 degrees kelvin
ΔH = 180.7 kJ
Substitute with these givens in the above equation to get ΔS as follows:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
173.3 = 180.7 - 303ΔS
303ΔS = 180.7 - 173.3
303ΔS = 7.4
ΔS = 7.4 / 303 = 0.02442 kJ/K which is equivalent to 24.42 J/k
Based on the above calculations, the correct choice is:
D. 24.42 J/K
