Explanation:

A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture whose particle size is intermediate between those of a solution and a suspension. The dispersed particles are spread evenly throughout the dispersion medium, which can be a solid, liquid, or gas.

Which pH value represents a solution with the lowest OHM ion concentration?

Arlecino [84]

pH value 1 represents a solution with the lowest OH⁻ion concentration.

Explanation:

pH is given by the expression as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

If the pH is lower than 7, pH < 7 then it is acidic

If the pH = 7, then it is neutral

If the pH > 7, then it is basic

If pH is 1 then the solution is showing mostly acidic character,which is least basic in its character.

So if the pH is 1, which is most acidic and least basic solution that is lowest OH⁻ ion concentration.

For each reaction, find the value of ΔSo. Report the value with the appropriate sign. (a) 3 NO2(g) + H2O(l) → 2 HNO3(l) + NO(g)

aev [14]

Answer:

ΔS° = -268.13 J/K

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

3 NO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → 2 HNO₃(l) + NO(g)

We can calculate the standard entropy change of a reaction (ΔS°) using the following expression:

ΔS° = ∑np.Sp° - ∑nr.Sr°

where,

ni are the moles of reactants and products

Si are the standard molar entropies of reactants and products

ΔS° = [2 mol × S°(HNO₃(l)) + 1 mol × S°(NO(g))] - [3 mol × S°(NO₂(g)) + 1 mol × S°(H₂O(l))]

ΔS° = [2 mol × 155.6 J/K.mol + 1 mol × 210.76 J/K.mol] - [3 mol × 240.06 J/K.mol + 1 mol × 69.91 J/k.mol]

ΔS° = -268.13 J/K

Using the equation, C5H12 + 8O2 Imported Asset 5CO2 + 6H2O, if an excess of pentane (C5H12) were supplied, but only 4 moles of o

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: 3 moles of water would be produced in present case.

Reason:
Reaction involved in present case is:
 C5H12 + 8O2 → 5CO2 + 6H2O

In above reaction, 1 mole of C5H12 reacts with 8 moles of oxygen to give 6 moles of water.

Thus, 4 moles of oxygen will react with 0.5 mole of C5H12, to generate 3 moles of H2O.

From these two reactions at 298 K, V2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2V(s) + 3CO2(g); ΔH° = 369.8 kJ; ΔS° = 8.3 J/K V2O5(s) + 2CO(g) → V2O3(s)

gregori [183]

Answer:

ΔG° = -133,1 kJ

Explanation:

For the reactions:

(1) V₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2V(s) + 3CO₂(g); ΔH° = 369,8 kJ; ΔS° = 8,3 J/K

(2) V₂O₅(s) + 2CO(g) → V₂O₃(s) + 2CO₂(g); ΔH° = –234,2 kJ; ΔS° = 0,2 J/K

By Hess's law it is possible to obtain the ΔH° and ΔS° of:

2V(s) + 5CO₂(g) → V₂O₅(s) + 5CO(g)

Substracting -(1)-(2), that means:

ΔH° = -369,8 kJ - (-234,2 kJ) = -135,6 kJ

ΔS° = - 8,3 J/K - 0,2 J/K = -8,5 J/K

Using: ΔG° = ΔH° - TΔS° at 298K

ΔG° = -135,6 kJ - 298K×-8,5x10⁻³kJ/K

ΔG° = -133,1 kJ

I hope it helps!
