Why is dissolving important??

Chemistry
1 answer:
Irina18 [472]3 years ago
4 0

Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth. It means that wherever water goes, either through the air, the ground, or through our bodies, it takes along valuable chemicals, minerals, and nutrients.

6.285×10^3 mg = _____? _____ kg
TiliK225 [7]
One kilogram is equal to one thousand grams. Further, one gram is equal to 1000 mg. The conversion is as shown below,
                    (6.285 x 10³ mg) x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1 kg / 1000 g)
The numerical value of the operation above is 0.006285 kg.

Predict the sign of the entropy change,Delta S, for each of the following reactions:The signs are either going to be pos or nega
algol [13]

Answer: a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s):  negative

b)  CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g) : positive

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g): positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s) : negative

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g):  positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g) : positive.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)

As ions are moving to solid form , randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

b) CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

As 2 moles of reactants are converted to 4 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s)

As gas is changing to solid, randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

As 7 moles of reactants are converted to 8 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

when acceleration is held constant and objects of different mass are observed,are mass and force directly proportional or invers
svetoff [14.1K]
Yes. When two things are directly prortional, that means that as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. So, say you have a 2kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2. The force would be 4N. If you have a 3kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force would be 6N. If two things are inversely proportional, that means that as one thing increases the other decreases at the same rate. A good example of this is in a chemical reaction. If you increase the surface area of the reactants, the reaction time decreases. They are inversely proportional.
