Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The degree of randomness or disorder is known as entropy. This means that more randomly or rapidly the molecules of a substance are moving in a container or in the Universe more will be its entropy.
For example, gases move more rapidly that solids or liquids and hence gases have high entropy.
Therefore, we can conclude that entropy measures disorder.
Answer:
21.2 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Molar concentration of the solution (C): 0.400 mol/L
- Volume of solution (V): 500 mL (0.500 L)
Step 2: Calculate the moles of Na₂CO₃ (solute) in the solution
We will use the definition of molarity.
C = moles of solute / liters of solution
moles of solute = C × liters of solution
moles of solute = 0.400 mol/L × 0.500 L = 0.200 mol
Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.200 moles of Na₂CO₃
The molar mass of Na₂CO₃ is 105.99 g/mol.
0.200 mol × 105.99 g/mol = 21.2 g
To find out how many molecules you have, you need to multiply the number of moles with Avogadros constant: 2.50 * 6.022 * 10²³ = 1.5055 * 10^24.
Because their atoms have the same number of electrons in the highest occupied energy level
