1. Show that heat flows spontaneously from high temperature to low temperature in any isolated system (hint: use entropy change

Inga [223]

Answer:

1 ) Δs ( entropy change for hot block ) = - Q / th ( -ve shows heat lost to cold block )

Δs ( entropy change for cold block ) = Q / tc

∴ Total Δs = ΔSc + ΔSh

= Q/tc - Q/th

2) ΔSdecomposition = Δh / Temp = ( 181.6 * 10^3 / 773 ) = 234.928 J/k

Explanation:

1) To show that heat flows spontaneously from high temperature to low temperature

example :

Pick two(2) solid metal blocks with varying temperatures ( i.e. one solid block is hot and the other solid block is cold )

Place both blocks for time (t ) in an insulated system to reduce heat loss or gain to or from the environment

Check the temperature of both blocks after time ( t ) it will be observed that both blocks will have same temperature after time t ( first law of thermodynamics )

Δs ( entropy change for hot block ) = - Q / th ( -ve shows heat lost to cold block )

Δs ( entropy change for cold block ) = Q / tc

∴ Total Δs = ΔSc + ΔSh

= Q/tc - Q/th

2) Entropy change for Decomposition of mercuric oxide

2HgO (s) → 2Hg(l) + O₂ (g)

Δs = positive

there is transition from solid to liquid and the melting point of mercury ( the point at which reaction will take place ) = 500⁰C

hence ΔSdecomposition = S⁻ Hg - S⁻ HgO =

Δh of reaction = 181.6 KJ

Temp = 500 + 273 = 773 k

hence ΔSdecomposition = Δh / Temp = ( 181.6 * 10^3 / 773 ) = 234.928 J/k

How atomic radius changes across a period and down a group in the periodic table?

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

An atom gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase; therefore the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. In general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to the right of a certain period.

According to the octet rule, which of elements will have a tendency to loss 2 electrons?

Aneli [31]

The correct option is STRONTIUM.
Strontium is a group 2 element, that means it has two electrons in its outermost shell. This element will prefer to lose these two electrons in its outermost shell in order to attain the octet form, therefore, it will form electrovalent bond with non metals which it can donate two electrons to.

A solution contains one or more of the following ions: Ag , Ca2 , and Co2 . Lithium bromide is added to the solution and no prec

koban [17]

Answer:

$Ca^{2+} and Co^{2+}$

Explanation:

Given:

A solution contains one or more of the following ions such as Ag, $Ca_2$ and $Co_2$

Here the Lithium bromide is added to the solution and no precipitate forms

Solution:

Since with LiBr no precipitation takes place therefore Ag+ is absent

Here on adding $Li_2SO_4$ to it precipitation takes place.

Precipitate is as follows,

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^2^-(aq)----->CASO_4(s)$

Thus,

$Ca^2^+$ is present

When $Li_3PO_4$ is added again precipitation takes place.

Therefore the reaction is as follows,

$Co^2^+(aq)+PO_4^3^-(aq)------>Co_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Therefore,

$Ca^{2+} and Co^{2+}$ are present in the solution

Calculate the frequency

Ber [7]

Given: wavelength of Nitrogen laser (∧) = 337.1 nm = 337.1 X 10^-9 m

We know that, Energy of photon (E) = hc/∧ = hv
where, v = frequency of photon and c = speed of light = 3 X 10^8 m/s

Thus, v = c/∧ = (3 X 10^8)/ (337.1 X 10^-9) = 8.899 X 10^14 s-1.

Answer: Frequency of nitrogen laser = 8.899 X 10^14 s-1.
