Answer:
An increase in entropy
Explanation:
In ice, the molecules are very well ordered because of the H-bonds. As ice melts, the intermolecular forces are broken (requires energy), but the order is interrupted (so entropy increases). Water is more random than ice, so ice spontaneously melts at room temperature.
Just think about this rationally. Melting ice (or anything) will require heat put in (this is called the latent heat of fusion), so you automatically know that the change in enthalpy is going to be positive. In order to make the reaction spontaneous, delta G, the Gibbs free energy has to be negative. So now look at the formula Delta(G) = Delta(H) - T*Delta*(S). If you know that g is negative, and H is positive, then it is only possible if -T*Delta(S) is negative. If that is positive, then Delta(S) has to be positive. So theres your answer :). An increase in entropy
Answer:
1 gram
Explanation:
Half life = 25 years
Starting mass = 16 grams
Time = 100 years
Number of half lives = Time / Duration of Half life = 100 / 25 = 4
After first Half life;
Remaining mass = 16 / 2 = 8 g
After Second Half life;
Remaining mass = 8 / 2 = 4 g
After Third Half life;
Remaining mass = 4 / 2 = 2 g
After Fourth Half life;
Remaining mass = 2 / 2 = 1 g
