Answer:

It accepted a proton from HCl

Explanation:

When properly written, the equation box the reaction is given as; HCl(aq) + H2O(l) ----> H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq).

According to Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and bases, an acid donates protons while a base accepts protons.

Water molecule acts as a base in the reaction because it accepted a proton from HCl in the reaction above.

The reaction for photosynthesis producing glucose sugar and oxygen gas is:

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a. 1.12 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the photosynthesis

6 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(l) ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₆(s) + 6 O₂(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 2.20 g of CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.

2.20 g × 1 mol/44.01 g = 0.0500 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of O₂ produced

The molar ratio of CO₂ to O₂ is 6:6. The moles of O₂ produced are 6/6 × 0.0500 mol = 0.0500 mol

Step 4: Calculate the volume occupied by 0.0500 moles of O₂ at STP

At STP, 1 mole of O₂ occupies 22.4 L.

0.0500 mol × 22.4 L/1 mol = 1.12 L

Which process is expected to have an increase in entropy?

olganol [36]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Degree of randomness of the molecules of a substance is known as entropy. More is the kinetic energy between the molecules of a substance more will be the degree of randomness.

Therefore, when a substance is present in a gaseous state then it has the maximum entropy. In liquid state, molecules are closer to each other so, there is less randomness between them.

On the other hand, in solid state molecules are much more closer to each other as they arr held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Therefore, they have very less entropy.

When liquid water is formed from gaseous hydrogen and oxygen molecules then gas is changing into liquid. So, there is decrease in entropy.

When $N_{2}O_{4}$ decomposes then the reaction will be as follows.

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Since, 1 mole is producing 2 moles. This means that degree of randomness is increasing as both the molecules are present in gaseous form.

In formation of a precipitate, aqueous solution is changing into solid state. Hence, degree of randomness is decreasing.

Rusting of iron also leads to the formation of solid as it forms $Fe_{2}O_{3}.xH_{2}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that decomposition of $N_{2}O_{4}$ gas to $NO_{2}$ gas is the process that is expected to have an increase in entropy.
