Answer:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases.

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases.

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can understand a higher entropy when more disorder is present and a lower entropy when less disorder is present, thus:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases since iodine has the greatest molar mass (254 g/mol) and fluorine the least molar mass (38 g/mol).

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases since hydrogen peroxide weights 34 g/mol as well as hydrogen sulfide but the peroxide has more bonds (more complex, higher entropy).

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases since diamond has a well-ordered structure and amorphous carbon has a very disordered one.

Best regards.

Crystals of a chemical in a lab slowly disappear from their container they do not become liquid. What change of state is this an

Olenka [21]

The change of state that has been given in the question is called sublimation. It is actually the process in which a solid gets directly converted to gas without changing into liquid. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.

Nitrous oxide (n2o), or laughing gas, is commonly used as an anesthetic in dentistry and surgery. how many moles are present in

Gelneren [198K]

Answer is: 0.375 moles are present in 8.4 liters of nitrous oxide at stp.

V(N₂O) = 8.4 L.

V(N₂O) = n(N₂O) · Vm.

Vm = 22,4 L/mol.<span>
n</span>(N₂O) = V(N₂O) ÷ Vm.

n(N₂O) = 8.4 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol.

n(N₂O) = 0.375 mol.<span>
Vm - molare volume on STP.</span>

A closed container holds 2.0 moles of CO2 gas at STP. How many moles of oxygen can be placed in a container of the same size at

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: 2 moles

Explanation:

STP is Standard Temperature and Pressure. That means the pressure is 1.00 atm and the temperature is 273K. Since the oxygen is placed in the same container, we can use Ideal Gas Law to figure out what container the CO₂ used.

Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT

P=1.00 atm

n=moles

R=0.08206 Latm/Kmol

T=273K

CO₂

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}$
