Answer:

ΔG = -101.591 KJ

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy -

It is a thermodynamic quantity , which is given by the change in enthalpy minus the product of the change in entropy and absolute temperature.

i.e.,

ΔG is given as the change in gibbs free energy ( KJ )

ΔS is given as the change in entropy ( KJ /K )

ΔH is given as the change in ethalphy ( KJ )

T = temperature ( Kelvin ( K ))

ΔG  =  ΔH - TΔS

The sign of ΔG determines the reaction spontaneity , as

ΔG = negative , the reaction is spontaneous and

If ΔG = positive , the reaction is non spontaneous .

Given -

For the reaction ,

C₂H₄ (g) + H₂(g) ---> C₂H₆(g)

ΔH = - 137.5 KJ

ΔS = - 120.5 J /K

Since ,

1 KJ = 1000 J

1 J = 1 / 1000KJ

ΔS = - 120.5 / 1000 KJ /K

ΔS = -0.1205 KJ /K

T = 25°C

(adding 273 To °C to convert it to K)

T = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Putting the values on the above equation ,

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

ΔG = -137.5 KJ - 298 * (-0.1205 KJ / K)

ΔG = -137.5 KJ + 35.909 KJ

ΔG = -101.591 KJ

Since,

the value of ΔG is negative ,

hence, the reaction is spontaneous.

For the above reaction ,

If the temperature is increased ,

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

From the above equation ,

the value of TΔS will increase ,

As a result the value of ΔG will be more positive , by increasing the temperature.

Answer:-ΔG=-101.5KJ

Explanation:We have to calculate ΔG for the reaction  so using the formula given in the equation we can calculate the \Delta G for the reaction.

We need to convert the unit ofΔS in terms of KJ/Kelvin as its value is given in terms of J/Kelvin

Also we need to convert the temperature in Kelvin as it is given in degree celsius.

\Delta H=-137.5\\ \Delta S=-120J/K\\ \Delta S=-0.120KJ/K\\ T=25^{.C}\\ T=273+25=298 K\\ \Delta G=?\\ \Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\Delta G=-137.5KJ-(278\times -0.120)\\ \Delta G=-137.5+35.76\\\Delta G=-101.74\\\Delta G=Negative

After calculating forΔG we found that the value ofΔG is negative and its value is -101.74KJ

 For a  reaction to be spontaneous the value of \Delta G \ must be negative .

As the ΔG for the given reaction is is negative so the reaction will be spontaneous in nature.

In this reaction since the entropy of reaction is positive and hence when we increase the temperature term then the overall term TΔS would become more positive  and hence the value of ΔG would be less negative .

Hence the value of ΔG  would become more positive with the increase in temperature.

So we found the value of ΔG to be -101.74KJ

Question 14 of 17
artcher [175]

Since Lutetium-177 is a beta and gamma emitter, the daughter nuclide produced from the decay of this radioisotope is 177Hf.

Beta emission of a radioisotope yields a  daughter nuclide whose amass number is the same as that of its parent nucleus but its atomic number is greater is greater than that of the parent nucleus by 1 unit.

Also, gamma emission does not lead to any change in the mass number of atomic number of the daughter nucleus produced.

Hence, the stable daughter nuclide, 177Hf is produced.

What is a term called gradient in Earth Science?
goblinko [34]
The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.

In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.

Methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3), and oxygen (O2) can react to form hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and water according to this equation:
egoroff_w [7]

The grams  of  oxygen that are required  to produce 1  mole  of H₂O  is 16 g ( answer  B)

<u><em> calculation</em></u>

2 CH₄  + 2NH₃ +3 O₂ → 2HCN  + 6H₂O

step 1: use the mole ratio to find moles of O₂

from equation above the  mole ratio  of O₂: H₂O  is 3:6 therefore the moles of O₂  = 1 mole x3/6 =0.5 moles

step  2: find   mass of O₂

mass= moles x molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass  of O₂ = 16 x2= 32 g/mol

mass O₂ = 0.5 moles x 32 g/mol = 16 g (answer B)

Xelga [282]

Answer: [Kr] 5s1 4d10 silver

[Xe] 6s2 4f14 5d7 Iridium

[Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p4 selenium

[Kr] 5s1 4d4 niobium

[Xe] 6s1 4f14 5d10 gold

[Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p4 tellurium

Explanation:

Selenium and tellurium will have the same properties because they both belong to group 16 in the periodic table.

Silver and gold will have the same properties because they both belong the group 11 in the periodic table.

Elements having the same outermost shell configuration show similar properties since chemical reactions occur by loss or gain of electrons. This loss or gain is determined by the number of electrons occupying the outermost shell. Elements in the same group have the same outermost shell electron configuration and similar properties.
