Since the sign is positive, the entropy increased by 88.48 J/K.

Examine the phases of the species present to determine whether a physical or chemical process will cause an increase or decrease in entropy. Keep in mind "Silly Little Goats" to aid you in telling.

[1 Sf K+1 + 1 Sf Br-1 (aq)] ([1Sf(KBr (s))])

[1(102.5) + 1(82.42)] - [1(96.44)] = 88.48 J/K

If the entropy has grown, we say that Delta S is positive, and if it has dropped, we say that Delta S is negative. Due to its ionic nature, KBr is soluble in water and causes the 'K(+)' ions to hydrate.

1. Is O2 a compound? Explain.

zhuklara [117]

1. O2 is not a compound because it only contains one or more type of the same element atom.
2. O2 is a molecule because a molecule is one or more of the same element atom.
3. The law of conversion is that the mass of the system will stay the same when transfer takes place. Like if you had an equation O+H2—> H2O the mass will remain the same.

4. It will be equal to 10 because of law of conservation of matter.

5. One observation can be that the compound, reaction you’re observing, has change states.

A 29.7 g sample of iron ore is treated as follows. The iron in the sample is all converted by a series of chemical reactions to

Softa [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of iron in the ore is 10.9 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of iron (III) oxide = 15.6 g

We know that:

Molar mass of Iron (III) oxide = 159.69 g/mol

Molar mass of iron atom = 55.85 g/mol

As, all the iron in the ore is converted to iron (III) oxide. So, the mass of iron in iron (III) oxide will be equal to the mass of iron present in the ore.

To calculate the mass of iron in given mass of iron (III) oxide, we apply unitary method:

In 159.69 g of iron (III) oxide, mass of iron present is $(2\times 55.85)=111.7g$

So, in 15.6 g of iron (III) oxide, mass of iron present will be = $\frac{111.7g}{159.69g}\times 15.6g=10.9g$

Hence, the mass of iron in the ore is 10.9 g
