Answer:
When the water is mixed with water at lower temperature the effective temperature of the system (i.e the water at lower temperature) will increase, thereby increasing it's entropy
Explanation:
The answer that "the entropy will is increases" is correct as:
The water at 90° C i.e at higher temperature is mixed with the water at 10° C i.e the water at the lower temperature.
The water at lower temperature will have molecules with lower energy while the water with higher temperature will have molecules undergoing high thermal collisions. Thereby, when the water is mixed with water at lower temperature the effective temperature of the system (i.e the water at lower temperature) will increase, thereby increasing it's entropy.
Therefore, the answer is correct with respect to the water at lower temperature.
Meanwhile, for the water at higher temperature , the temperature of the system will decrease. Thus, the entropy of the water at higher level will decrease.
We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH
The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])
We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87
So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.
most events like the rising and setting of the Sun were used a natural measurement of time until recently.
Solar time, which is based on the motion of the Sun, is not the only way of measuring time, however. One might keep track of the regular appearance of the full Moon. That event occurs once about every 29.5 solar days. The time between appearances of new moons, then, could be used to define a month.
One also can use the position of the stars for measuring time. The system is the same as that used for the Sun, since the Sun itself is a star. All other stars also rise and set on a regular basis.
Although any one of these systems is a satisfactory method for measuring some unit of time, such as a day or a month, the systems may conflict with each other. It is not possible, for example, to fit 365 solar days into 12 or 13 lunar months exactly. This problem creates the need for leap years

Answer:
Formation. When the solar system settled into its current layout about 4.5 billion years ago, Earth formed when gravity pulled swirling gas and dust in to become the third planet from the Sun. Like its fellow terrestrial planets, Earth has a central core, a rocky mantle and a solid crust.
