$$	ext{NaCl}$$

Question 10

Which of the following statements about entropy ($$\Delta S) is $$correct?

Accepted Answer

A gas has higher entropy than a solid at the same temperature.

Question 11

A galvanic cell is constructed using a zinc electrode in a $$	ext{ZnSO}_4$$ solution and a copper electrode in a $$	ext{CuSO}_4$$ solution. Which of the following correctly identifies the anode and the direction of electron flow?

Accepted Answer

Zinc is the anode; electrons flow from zinc to copper.

Question 12

Which of the following best describes the effect of a catalyst on a chemical reaction?

Accepted Answer

It lowers the activation energy, increasing the reaction rate.

Question 13

A student adds 0.10 mol of $$	ext{HCl} to 1.0 L of a $$buffer solution containing 0.50 mol of acetic acid and 0.50 mol of sodium acetate. What will happen to the pH of the solution?

Accepted Answer

$$K_c = \frac{[	ext{NH}_3]^2}{[	ext{N}_2][	ext{H}_2]^3}$$

Question 15

Which of the following best explains why increasing the temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

Accepted Answer

It increases the number of effective collisions between reactant molecules.

Question 18

A patient is given an intravenous solution that is hypertonic relative to their blood plasma. What is the most likely effect on the patient's red blood cells?

Accepted Answer

The cells will shrink due to water leaving the cells.

Question 19

Which of the following best describes the relationship between the standard cell potential ($$E^\circ_{cell}) $$and the equilibrium constant ($$K) $$for a redox reaction?

Accepted Answer

$$E^\circ_{cell} is $$positive when $$K \u003e 1.$$
