An exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy),[1] indicating a spontaneous reaction. For processes that take place under constant pressure and temperature conditions, the Gibbs free energy is used whereas the Helmholtz energy is used for processes that take place under constant volume and temperature conditions.
Symbolically, the release of free energy, G, in an exergonic reaction (at constant pressure and temperature) is denoted as
{\displaystyle \Delta G=G_{\rm {products}}-G_{\rm {reactants}}<0.\,}
Although exergonic reactions are said to occur spontaneously, this does not imply that the reaction will take place at an observable rate. For instance, the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide is very slow in the absence of a suitable catalyst. It has been suggested that eager would be a more intuitive term in this context.[2]
More generally, the terms exergonic and endergonic relate to the free energy change in any process, not just chemical reactions. An example of an exergonic reaction is cellular respiration. This relates to the degrees of freedom as a consequence of entropy, the temperature, and the difference in heat released or absorbed.
By contrast, the terms exothermic and endothermic relate to the overall exchange of heat during a process
For a gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart diffusion tube, the composition is mathematically given as
%He=12.5%
%CH4=87.5%
<h3>What is the
composition of the waste gas if 100 kg moles of gas are processed per minute?</h3>
Generally, the equation for the Material balance is mathematically given as
F=R+W
Therefore
100=0.20*1000+W
W=80kmol/min
In conclusion, waste gas compose
2.0/100*100=50/100*20+%*80
Hence
%He=12.5%
%CH4=87.5%

The answer is A, do you want me to explain it? It’s pretty simple, you just need to follow all the signs in brackets and match them in those in the answer
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Find the z-scores:</u>
a) z-score for 22.6 inches length
- z = [ 22.6 - 20 ] / 2.6 = 1.00
b) z-score for 17.4 inches length
- z = [ 17.4 - 20 ] / 2.6 = - 1.00
<u>2) Probability</u>
Then, you have to find the probability that the length of an infant is between - 1.00 and 1.00 standards deviations (σ) from the mean (μ).
That is a well known value of 68%, which is part of the 68-95-99.7 empirical rule.
The most exact result is obtained from tables and is 68.26%:
- 1 - P (z ≥ 1.00) - P (z ≤ - 1.00) = 1 - 0.1587 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 = 68.26%
Answer:
Mole fraction of solute is 0.0462
Explanation:
To solve this we use the colligative property of lowering vapor pressure.
First of all, we search for vapor pressure of pure water at 25°C = 23.8 Torr
Now, we convert the Torr to mmHg. Ratio is 1:1, so 23.8 Torr is 23.8 mmHg.
Formula for lowering vapor pressure is:
ΔP = P° . Xm
Where ΔP = P' (Vapor pressure of solution) - P° (Vapor pressure of pure solvent)
Xm = mole fraction
24.9 mmHg - 23.8 mmHg = 23mmHg . Xm
Xm = (24.9 mmHg - 23.8 mmHg) / 23mmHg
Xm = 0.0462
