4 0

Answer:

Green roofs help reduce the Urban Heat Island Effect, a condition in which urban environment absorb and trap heat. A green roof's plants remove air particulates produce oxygen and provide shade. Another important benefit of green roofs is their ability to reduce and slow stormwater runoff in urban environment.

Linolenic acid (C18H30O2 - M.W. = 278.42 g/mol) reacts with hydrogen gas according to the equation: C18H30O2 + 3H2 (g) → C18H36O
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed

Explanation:

The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂

By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.

By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3

Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:

10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g  = 0.0377 moles

We apply a rule of three:

1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react

Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P

V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L

Which of the following is true?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

  • When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
  • When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is

spontaneous in the opposite direction.

  • When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.

If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS  term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.
