Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

According to 2nd law of thermodynamics, every spontaneous process is associated with increase in entropy (\Delta S>0).

As sodium acetate crystallizes out spontaneously therefore it is associated with \Delta S>0.

During crystallization, bond formation takes place which results evolution of heat. In other words, crystallization phenomenon is exothermic (\Delta H).

So, the given crystallization process renders the following thermodynamic quantities- \Delta S>0 J/K and \Delta H J

Option (c) is correct.

scoundrel [369]

When we wish to convert a gas to liquid we have to either

a) decrease temperature

b) increase pressure

In case of fire extinguisher the CO2 is found to be in liquid state, this is as the CO2 is pressurized at high pressure which keeps CO2 in liquid state

the ideal pressure and temperature conditions when CO2 gas can be converted to CO2 gas

Pressure = 5 - 73 atm

Temperature = -57  to 31 degree Celsius

El cuerpo humano tiene unos 6 billones de células (6,0x1012) y la población de la Tierra es de unos 8 000 millones de personas.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

En toda la población del mundo hay <u>0.0797 moles de células</u>

Explanation:

1.0 mol of cells = 6.022 * 10∧23 cells

X mol of cells  = 6.0 * 10∧12 cells

- X is cleared to find out how many moles of cells are in a human body:

  • X = 6.0 * 10∧12 cells / 6.022 * 10∧23 cells
  • X = 9,963 * 10∧-12 moles of cells per person

In the world there are 8 * 10∧9 people, how many moles in total will there be?

8 * 10∧9 people * 9,963 * 10∧-12 moles of cells per person  =

<u>0.0797 moles of molecules in the entire population of the earth.</u>
