For the given reactions determine if the entropy increases or decreases.

Chemistry

Alex73 [517]3 years ago
3 0

Entropy increases in reaction 1 due to increase in the number of particles while entropy decreases in reaction 2 due to decrease in the number of particles.

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness in a system. The higher the entropy, the more disorderly the system is and the lower the entropy, the less disorderly the system is. We must note that entropy increases with increase in the number of particles.

In the reaction,  2 KClO3 (s)⇌2 KCl (s)+3 O2 (g), entropy increases because one of the products is a gas and the number of particles increases from left to right. In the second reaction, CoCl2 (s)+6 H2O (g)⇌CoCl2⋅6H2O, entropy decreases because the number of particles decreases.

Which statement is NOT correct about the classification of amino acids?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Amino acids can be classified <u>depending on the side chain structure</u> in

  1. acidic
  2. basic
  3. neutral
  4. aliphatic
  5. aromatic
  6. sulfur containing amino acids.  

Aspargine is a <em>neutral amino acid</em> that has a key role in <u>glycoproteins biosynthesis.</u> Aspargine helps the body to resist fatigue and contributes to a smooth functioning of the liver.

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 10 nm. Express this diameter in micrometers, meters, and millimeters.
MariettaO [177]

1) 1 nm = 0.001 µm; one nanometer is equal to 0.001 (10⁻³) micrometer.

d(H) = 10 nm; diameter of hydrogen atom.

d(H) = 10 nm · 0.001 µm/nm.

d(H) = 0.01 µm = 10⁻² µm.

2) 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m ; one meter is equal to 0.0000000001 (10⁻⁹) meter.

d(H) = 10 nm.

d(H) = 10 nm · 10⁻⁹ m/nm.

d(H) = 0.00000001 m = 10⁻⁸ m.

3) 1 nm = 10⁻⁶ mm ; one nanometer is equal to 0.000001 (10⁻⁶) millimeter.

d(H) = 10 nm · 10⁻⁶ mm/nm.

d(H) = 0.00001 mm = 10⁻⁵ mm.

Assoli18 [71]
I think the correct answer would be <span>requires energy as heat. From the Le Chatelier's principle, when a reaction needs energy to react, increasing the temperature would favor the reaction. This is called an endothermic reaction. Hope this answers the question.</span>
