When heat energy is supplied to a material it can raise the temperature of mass of the material.
Specific heat is the amount of energy required by 1 g of material to raise the temperature by 1 °C.
equation is
H = mcΔt
H - heat energy
m - mass of material
c - specific heat of the material
Δt - change in temperature
substituting the values in the equation
120 J = 10 g x c x 5 °C
c = 2.4 Jg⁻¹°C⁻¹
Knowing the number of valence electrons in one of the alien elements helps in identifying it because the number of valence electrons can help categorize the alien element. Similar elements have the same valence electrons and knowing the category of the element can help further analyze the element.
It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question, but anyway, here is the answer. At STP graphite and diamond are two solid forms of carbon, the statement that explains why these two forms of carbon differ in hardness is this: <span>Graphite and diamond have different molecular structures. Hope this helps.</span>
<span>(A)hydrochloric acid + silver nitrate
HCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) -----> AgCl(s) +HNO3(aq)
</span><span>(B)hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide
</span><span>HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) -----> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
</span><span>(C)calcium chloride + silver nitrate
CaCl2(aq) + AgNO3(aq) ----> </span>AgCl(s) +Ca(NO3)2(aq)
<span>(D)sodium chloride + silver nitrate
</span>NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) ----> AgCl(s) +NaNO32(aq)
AgCl is a white precipitate.
In (B) no precipitate was formed, so answer is B.
Answer:
A) ∆Suniv >0, ∆G<0, T∆Suniv >0.
Explanation:
The connection between entropy and the spontaneity of a reaction is expressed by the <u>second law of thermodynamics</u><u>: The entropy of the universe increases in a spontaneous process and remains unchanged in an equilibrium process</u>.
Mathematically, we can express the second law of thermodynamics as follows:
For a spontaneous process: ΔSuniv = ΔSsys + ΔSsurr > 0
Therefore, the second law of thermodynamics tells us that a spontaneous reaction increases the entropy of the universe; that is, ΔSuniv > 0.
If we want spontaneity expressed only in terms of the properties of the system (ΔHsys and ΔSsys), we use the following equation:
-TΔSuniv = ΔHsys - TΔSsys < 0
That means that T∆Suniv >0.
This equation says that for a process carried out at constant pressure and temperature T, if the changes in enthalpy and entropy of the system are such that <u>ΔHsys - TΔSsys is less than zero, the process must be spontaneous.</u>
Finally, if the change in free energy is less than zero (ΔG<0), the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
