Answer:

(C) It is favorable and is driven by ΔH° only.

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 Na₂O₂ + S + 2 H₂O → 4 NaOH + SO₂

To determine whether it will be favorable or not at 298 K, we need to calculate the standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°).

  • If ΔG° < 0, the reaction will be favorable.
  • If ΔG° > 0, the reaction will be unfavorable.

We can calculate ΔG° using the following expression.

ΔG° = ΔH° - T.ΔS°

As we can see from the expression above, the favorability will be driven if ΔH° < 0 and if ΔS° < 0. Since ΔH° = -610 kJ/mol and ΔS° = -73 J/K.mol, the favorability will be driven by ΔH°. Now, let's calculate the overall favorability.

ΔG° = ΔH° - T.ΔS°

ΔG° = -610 kJ/mol - 298 K.(-0.073 kJ/K.mol) = -588 kJ/mol

The reaction is favorable and is driven by ΔH° only.

Suppose 0.035 moles of HCl is dissolved in enough water to produce 750 mL of solution. What is the pH
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

pH = 1.33

Explanation:

Because HCl is a strong acid, each mole of HCl will completely dissociate into H⁺ and Cl⁻ species.

Now we calculate the molar concentration (molarity) of H⁺:

  • Molarity = moles / volume

(750 mL ⇒ 750 / 1000 = 0.750 L)

  • Molarity = 0.035 moles / 0.750 L
  • Molarity = 0.0467 M

Then we calculate the pH of the solution:

  • pH = -log [H⁺]
  • pH = -log (0.0467 M)
  • pH = 1.33

Heat and pressure deep in the earth change shale to slate. Why does this happen?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Because of the ground above and the molten iron core.

Explanation:

As you go deeper into the earth you have more and more of the earth above you that applies pressure on you. The heat near the very top of the plate is relatively low and it decreases by a little as you go down. But once you start to go down into the earth by hundreds of meters then the temperature starts to rise and it rises pretty quickly due to the heat being transferred from the molten iron outer core of the earth.
