Given the following values for the change in enthalpy (deltaH) and entropy (deltaS), which of the following processes can occur

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

(a) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = Delta H – T * DS

Substituting the given values, we get –

Delta G = -84 -298 *(125/1000) = -121.25 KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

(b) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = -125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G =-84 -298 *(-125/1000) = -46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

(c) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = 84 -298 *(125/1000) = +46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

(d) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = 84 -298 *(-125/1000) = + 121.25 KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

Provide background information about different types of chemical reactions.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

.

Explanation:

-Synthesis reactions are reactions that appear when two distinct atoms or molecules engage to structure a specific molecule or compound. Most of the time, when a synthesis response occurs, electricity is launched and the response is exothermic. However, an endothermic consequence is additionally possible.

-A decomposition response starts offevolved from a single substance and produces extra than one substance; that is, it decomposes. One substance as a reactant and greater than one substance as the merchandise is the key attribute of a decomposition reaction. For example, in the decomposition of sodium hydrogen carbonate (also recognized as sodium bicarbonate)

-A single-replacement response (sometimes referred to as a single-displacement reaction) is a chemical response in which one aspect is substituted for every other factor in a compound, producing a new aspect and a new compound as merchandise

-A double-replacement response (sometimes referred to as a double-displacement reaction) takes place when components of two ionic compounds are exchanged, making two new compounds. A attribute of a double-replacement equation is that there are two compounds as reactants and two distinctive compounds as product

-A combustion response happens when a reactant combines with oxygen, many instances from the atmosphere, to produce oxides of all different factors as products; any nitrogen in the reactant is transformed to elemental nitrogen, N2. Many reactants, referred to as fuels, incorporate normally carbon and hydrogen atoms, reacting with oxygen to produce CO2 and H2O

Choose the selection which correctly characterizes all three of the following substances in terms of whether they are polar or n

ohaa [14]

Answer:

SiH4 is nonpolar and BBr3 is nonpolar and SiF4 is nonpolar.

Explanation:

SiH4 is a non-polar compound. Though the Si–H bonds are polar, as a result of different electronegativities of Si and H. However, as there are 4 electron repulsions around the central Si atom, the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically around the central atom having a tetrahedral shape hence they cancel out making the compound nonpolar.

SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine atoms are arranged symetrically around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out just like in SiH4.

The 3 bromine atoms all lie in the same plane thus the geometry of the compound will be trigonal planar. The BBr3 will be non polar because the three B-Br bonds will cancel out each others' dipole moment given that they are in the same plane.

What is the main difference between an isotope and an ion

eimsori [14]

An isotope is the vary of neutrons in an element, causing its atomic mass to change. While an ion is a charged atom that bonds to be stable.
