Answer:
D
Explanation:
A reaction that is exothermic and causes a decrease in the entropy of the system cannot be a spontaneous reaction. This is not totally true because naturally For a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe (system plus surroundings) must increase. This is the 2nd law of thermodynamics. The system entropy can decrease as long as the entropy of the surroundings increases enough to make the sum of the system and surroundings positive.
And we know that a spontaneous reaction is a reaction that occurs in a given set of conditions without intervention. Spontaneous reactions are accompanied by an increase in overall entropy or disorder. If the Gibbs Free Energy is negative, then the reaction is spontaneous, and if it is positive, then it is nonspontaneous.
Erosion breaks rocks down further and then moves them. Forces like wind and water move the rock pieces. They mix with matter like sand to become sediment. Weathering and erosion help shape Earth's surface.
Heya it seems you’ve made a mistake in one of your plausible answers.. as for me l got 0.64M so l am thinking the option a will be in a decimal form
Answer:
A) 4P + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅
Explanation:
A) 4P + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅
This equation is balanced. There are four phosphorus and ten oxygen atoms are on both side of equation.
B) 5P + 4O₂ → 2P₄O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are five phosphorus and eight oxygen atoms on left, eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.
C) 2P + O₂ → P₂O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are two phosphorus, two oxygen atoms on left and two phosphorus five oxygen on right side of equation.
D) 4P + 2O₂ → 2P₄O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are four phosphorus, four oxygen atoms on left and eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.
