What makes a glass different from a solid such as quartz? Under what conditions could quartz be converted into glass?

UNO [17]

Answer: arrangement of constituent particles makes glass diff. from quartz. Glass-short range order of particles.
Quartz-Long range of particles.

If quartz is heated and cooled rapidly it can be converted to glass.

Is the equation for reaction 1 balanced? Explain your reasoning. If the reaction is not balanced, then state how you would balan

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Reaction is already balanced

Explanation:

The equation in reaction 1 is given as;

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> CO2 + H2O + Na+ + CH3COO-

The reaction is already balanced. This is because the umber of atoms of elements in the reactant is equal to that of the products

Carbon

Reactant = 2 + 1 = 3

Product = 2 + 2 = 3

Hydrogen

Reactant = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5

Product = 2 + 3 = 5

Oxygen

Reactant = 2 + 3 = 5

Product = 2 +1 + 2 = 5

Sodium

Reactant = 1

Product = 1

If you put an egg on a sidewalk on a hot day in July and try to cook it you are using?

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

<em><u>Passive solar energy</u></em>

Explanation:

First of all, you must know that you if you put an egg on a sidewalk you are dealing with energy from the Sun, i.e. solar energy, while geothermal energy is energy that comes from the inner of the Earth and biomass energy comes from plant or animal material.

The term passive solar energy refers to the fact that the energy of the sun is used directly for the intended task, which in this case is to cook the egg.

The term active solar energy refers to the fact that the energy of the Sun is converted into a different form of energy and then used for your purpose. For instance, if the energy of the Sun were used to produce electricity and then this electricity used to cook the egg, you would be using an acitve solar energy.

The vapor pressure of benzene at 298 K is 94.4 mm of Hg. The standard molar Gibbs free energy of formation of liquid benzene at

horsena [70]

Answer:

ΔfG°(C₆H₆(g)) = 129.7kJ/mol

Explanation:

Bringing out the parameters mentioned in the question;

Vapor pressure = 94.4 mm of Hg

The vaporization reaction is given as;

C₆H₆(l) ⇄ C₆H₆(g)

Equilibrium in terms of activities is given by:

K = a(C₆H₆(g)) / a(C₆H₆(l))

Activity of pure substances is one:

a(C₆H₆(l)) = 1

Assuming ideal gas phase activity equals partial pressure divided by total pressure. At standard conditions

K = p(C₆H₆(g)) / p°

Where p° = 1atm = 760mmHg standard pressure

We now have;

K = 94mmHg / 760mmHg = 0.12421

Gibbs free energy is given as;

ΔG = - R·T·ln(K)

where R = gas constant = 8.314472J/molK

So ΔG° of vaporization of benzene is:

ΔvG° = - 8.314472 · 298.15 · ln(0.12421)

ΔvG° = 5171J/mol = 5.2kJ/mol

Gibbs free energy change of reaction = Gibbs free energy of formation of products - Gibbs free energy of formation of reactants:

ΔvG° = ΔfG°(C₆H₆(g)) - ΔfG°(C₆H₆(l))

Hence:

ΔfG°(C₆H₆(g)) = ΔvG°+ ΔfG°(C₆H₆(l))

ΔfG°(C₆H₆(g)) = 5.2kJ/mol + 124.5kJ/mol

ΔfG°(C₆H₆(g)) = 129.7kJ/mol
