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)

Hypothesis: If a fixed amount of gas is heated,

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

If fixed amount of gas is heated then the volume will increase because the heat will cause the molecules of gas to move freely and increase the kinetic energy.

Explanation:

If fixed amount of gas is heated then the volume will increase because the heat will cause the molecules of gas to move freely and increase the kinetic energy.

According to the Charle's law

The volume of given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure and number of moles of gas.

Mathematical expression;

V ∝ T

V = kT

V/T = k

if volume is changed from V1 to V2 and temperature change from T1 to T2 then,

V1/T1 = k V2/T2= k

V1/T1 = V2/T2

A gem has a mass of 4.50 g. When the gem is placed in a graduated cylinder 12.00 mL of water, the water level rises to 13.45 mL.

Mandarinka [93]

<span>Displaced volume :

</span>Final volume - <span>Initial volume

</span>13.45 mL - 12.00 mL => 1.45 mL

Mass = 4.50 g

Therefore:

density = mass / volume

D = 4.50 / 1.45

<span>D = 3.103 g/mL </span>

High tides and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.
