Yes you balanced it correctly : CH₃CH₂CH₃ ₍g₎ + 5O₂ ₍g₎ -------> 3CO₂ ₍g₎ + 4H₂O ₍g₎
A hack to checking if its correct when they give you the structural formula of one of the species (CH₃CH₂CH₃) is to convert it to the molecular formula and if you get the same answer then it's correct.
So CH₃CH₂CH₃ is the struct-formula for the molec-formula C₃H₈
C₃H₈ + 5O₂ --------> 3 CO₂ + 4H₂O (which means your correct =D)
Answer:
Hg∧2+ has a negative standard entropy because the ions are highly solvated in aqueous phase; smaller the ionic size, the more highly it is surrounded by solvated ions. Therefore it will be in highly ordered state hence the entropy decreases.
Hg2 ^2+ has a positive standard entropy because the ionic size of Hg^2+ is smaller than Hg2 ^2+, so therefore the Hg^2+ is highly solvated and that means that it is in highly ordered state. Hg2 ^2+ is not highly solvated so it will have a positive entropy
Explanation:
The values of standard entropy of aqueous ions has a negative standard entropy because the ions are highly solvated in aqueous phase; smaller the ionic size, the more highly it is surrounded by solvated ions. Therefore it will be in highly ordered state hence the entropy decreases.
Hg2 ^2+ has a positive standard entropy because the ionic size of Hg^2+ is smaller than Hg2 ^2+, so therefore the Hg^2+ is highly solvated and that means that it is in highly ordered state. Hg2 ^2+ is not highly solvated so it will have a positive entropy
