Answer:

Positive: a and b

Negative: c

Explanation:

The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness of the system, and it intends to increase. The randomness can be determined by the energy of the molecules, their velocity and how distance they are between the other molecules.

When the entropy increases, ΔS is positive, when the entropy decreases, ΔS is negative. So, when gasoline mix with air in a car engine, the process intends to continue, the randomness increases and ΔS is positive. When hot air expands, the distance between the molecules increases, so ΔS is positive.

But, when humidity condenses, the molecules stay closer, so there's a decrease in the randomness, then ΔS is negative.

4.80 x 10^25 formula units pf calcium iodide (Cal2) will have what mass?
maw [93]

Answer:

mass CaI2 = 23.424 Kg

Explanation:

From the periodic table we obtain for CaI2:

⇒ molecular mass CaI2: 40.078  + ((2)(126.90)) = 293.878 g/mol

∴ mol CaI2 = (4.80 E25 units )×(mol/6.022 E23 units) = 79.708  mol CaI2

⇒ mass CaI2 = (79.708 mol CaI2)×(293.878 g/mol) = 23424.43 g

⇒ mass CaI2 = 23.424 Kg
