B. solvent
solute is the substance being dissolved
Answer:
The correct answer is: X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide
Explanation:
Combustion of compound of containing nitrogen and metal will give nitrogen dioxide and metal oxide as product. During combustion reaction a compound reacts with oxygen in order to yield oxides of elements present in the compound.
The general equation is given as:

Hence, the correct answer is :X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide.
The original concentration of the acid solution is 6.175
10^-4 mol / L.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Concentration is the ratio of solute in a solution to either solvent or total solution. It is expressed in terms of mass per unit volume
HBr + NaOH -----> NaBr + H2O
There is a 1:1 equivalence with acid and base.
Moles of NaOH = 72.90
10^-3
0.25
= 0.0182 mol.
[ HBr ] = moles of base / volume of a solution
= 0.0182 / 29.47
= 6.175
10^-4 mol / L.
Answer:
a) 
b) entropy of the sistem equal to a), entropy of the universe grater than a).
Explanation:
a) The change of entropy for a reversible process:


The energy balance:
![\delta U=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdelta%20U%3D%5Btex%5D%5Cdelta%20Q-%20%5Cdelta%20W)
If the process is isothermical the U doesn't change:
![0=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0%3D%5Btex%5D%5Cdelta%20Q-%20%5Cdelta%20W)


The work:

If it is an ideal gas:


Solving:

Replacing:


Given that it's a compression: V2<V1 and ln(V2/V1)<0. So:

b) The entropy change of the sistem will be equal to the calculated in a), but the change of entropy of the universe will be 0 in a) (reversible process) and in b) has to be positive given that it is an irreversible process.
