Is the entropy change favorable or not, when a nonpolar molecule is transferred from water to a nonpolar solvent?

Chemistry

jonny [76]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Entropy change is favorable when a nonpolar molecule is transferred from water to a nonpolar solvent.

Explanation:

A nonpolar molecule is not miscible in water (polar solvent). Therefore, when mixed together, each specie will cluster together and solvation will not happen.

However, when you tranfer the nonpolar molecule to a nonpolar solvent, the solvent molecules will interact with the nonpolar molecule. This will increase entropy as the level of disorder will increase with solvation.

What happens to the reaction c2h6 + 137 kj c2h4+h2 when the temperature of the reaction is increased?
Softa [21]
Answer is: at higher temperatures reaction will go to the right (forward), more products (C₂H₄ and H₂) will be produce, because this is endothermic reaction (ΔH<span> is positive, </span>energy is consumed) and according Le Chatelier's principle <span>heat is included as a reactant. </span> .

The ka of hf is 6.8 x 10-4. what is the ph of a 0.35 m solution of hf?
damaskus [11]
When the reaction equation is:

HF ↔ H+   +   F-

and when the Ka expression
= concentration of products/concentration of reactions

so, Ka = [H+][F-]/[HF]

when we assume:

[H+] = [F-] = X

and [HF] = 0.35 - X

So, by substitution:

6.8 x 10^-4 = X^2 / (0.35 - X) by solving for X

∴ X = 0.015 M

∴[H+] = X = 0.015

when PH = -㏒[H+]

∴PH = -㏒0.015

        = 1.8

In the unbalanced equation given below, what is the element that is gaining electrons?
viktelen [127]

Hey there!:

HCl + MnO2 → MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2

* in HCl the oxidation state of Cl is -1 .

* on the product side the oxidation state is 0 .

* therefore Cl gains electrons .

* in  MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4

* in MnCl2 the oxidation state of Mn is +2

Therefore Mn loses electrons

Answer A

Hope That helps!

if the Celsius temperature of a gas at constant pressure is increased from 10 Celsius to 20 Celsius the volume is
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

               The volume is increased.

Explanation:

                     According to <em>Charles' Law</em>, " <em>at constant pressure the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional to each other</em>". Mathematically this law is presented as;

                                                    V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂   -----(1)

In statement the data given is,

T₁  =  10 °C  =  283.15 K                    ∴  K  =  273.15 + °C

T₂  =  20 °C  =  293.15 K

So, it is clear that the temperature is being increased hence, we will find an increase in volume. Let us assume that the starting volume is 100 L, so,

V₁  =  100 L

V₂  =  Unknown

Now, we will arrange equation 1 for V₂ as,

                                                    V₂  =  V₁ × T₂ / T₁

Putting values,

                                     V₂  = 100 L × 293.15 K / 283.15 K

                                     V₂  = 103.52 L

Hence, it is proved that by increasing temperature from 10 °C to 20 °C resulted in the increase of Volume from 100 L to 103.52 L.
