Polyester is a synthetic material used for many different purposes. It is produced from petroleum and natural gas. Producing pol

yester from these natural resources requires many steps and uses other chemicals that are potentially harmful. Polyester production also requires a lot of energy. Although polyester is not biodegradable, it is easily recyclable.
Which statement about synthetic materials is best supported by the example of polyester?
A.
Using synthetic materials has a negative impact on the environment, but using natural materials does not.
B.
Synthetic materials created from petroleum and natural gas are difficult to produce and to recycle.
C.
Materials that are created from natural resources affect the environment more than those that are not.
D.
Producing certain synthetic materials could have a greater environmental impact than disposing of them.

Goshia [24]

Answer: the boiling point is = 137.325°C

Explanation:

From the formula: ∆Tb= Kb*m

From the question, Kb= 0.95, m= 27.5, T1= 111.2°C

Substitute into ∆Tb= Kb*m

∆Tb= 0.95*27.5= 26.125

∆Tb= T2-T1

Hence

T2- 111.2=26.125

T2= 26.125+ 111.2= 137.325°C

Predict the sign of ΔSsys for each of the following processes. Which are positive? (a) Gasoline vapors mix with air in a car eng
OLEGan [10]

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.
