Answer:

Rank the following chemical species from lowest absolute entropy (So) (1) to highest absolute entropy (5) at 298 K?

a. Al (s)

b. H2O (l)

c. HCN (g)

d. CH3COOH (l)

e. C2H6 (g)

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of the degree of disorderness.

In solids, the entropy is very less compared to liquids and gases.

The entropy order is:

solids<liquids<gases

Among the given substances, water in liquid form has a strong intermolecular H-bond.

So, it has also less entropy.

Next acetic acid.

Between the gases, HCN, and ethane, ethane has more entropy due to very weak intermolecular interactions.

HCN has slight H-bonding in IT.

Hence, the entropy order is:

Al(s) < CH3COOH (l) <H2O(l) < HCN(g) < C2H6(g)

Mr. Smith is hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level of 300mg/ml of blood. Explain how homeostasis would regulate his glucose l

aleksley [76]

Answer:

When the animal has eaten food and the blood glucose level in the body increases. The pancreas cells in the body detects the increase in the blood glucose which leads to increase the insulin hormone.

This decreases the blood glucose level in the level. This is how the negative feedback works in the body if the level of glucose increases.

Negative feedback is the way by which the body maintains homeostasis and maintains equilibrium in the body.

Cyclohexane has a freezing point of 6.50 ∘C and a Kf of 20.0 ∘C/m. What is the freezing point of a solution made by dissolving 0

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The freezing point will be $2.9^{0}C$

Explanation:

The depression in freezing point is a colligative property.

It is related to molality as:

$Depressioninfreezing point=K_{f}Xmolality$

Where

Kf= $20\frac{^{0}C}{m}$

the molality is calculated as:

$molality=\frac{moles_{solute}}{mass_{solvent}}$

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{0.694}{154}=0.0045mol$

$massofcyclohexane=25g=0.025Kg$

$molarity=\frac{0.0045}{0.025}=0.18m$

Depression in freezing point = $20X0.18=3.6^{0}C$

The new freezing point = $6.5^{0}C-3.6^{0}C=2.9^{0}C$
