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.

A salt wedge forms in an estuary because
kherson [118]

Answer:

a rapidly flowing river discharges into the ocean where tidal currents are weak.

Explanation:

The force of the river pushing fresh water out to sea rather than tidal currents transporting seawater upstream determines the water circulation in these estuaries.

What mass of zinc (molar mass 65.4 g moll) does it take to produce 0.50 mole of H2(g)?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

32.7 g of Zn

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Zn + 2HCl —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Zn required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂.

Therefore, 0.5 mole of Zn will also react to produce to 0.5 mole of H₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of Zn is required.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.5 mole of Zn. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Zn = 0.5 mole

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol

Mass of Zn =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Zn = 0.5 × 65.4

Mass of Zn = 32.7 g

Thus, 32.7 g of Zn is required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂.

What are 2 interactions between the earth spheres and the carbon cycle?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

The spheres interact with each other, and a change in one area can cause a change in another. Humans (biosphere) use farm machinery manufactured from geosphere materials to plow the fields, and the atmosphere brings precipitation (hydrosphere) to water the plants. The biosphere contains all the planet's living things.
