Adding HCl

Question 6

If solutions of Ba(NO\_3)\_2 and Na\_2SO\_4 are mixed, will a precipitate form? Why?

Yes, because BaSO\_4 is insoluble.

Question 7

Which of the following is a spontaneous process?

Accepted Answer

Iron rusting in moist air

Question 8

Which statement best explains the connection between disorder (randomness) and spontaneity?

Accepted Answer

Spontaneous processes tend to increase the disorder of the universe.

Question 9

Which phase change results in the greatest increase in entropy?

Accepted Answer

Sublimation of dry ice (CO\_2(s) to CO\_2(g))

Question 10

Consider the reaction: $$2H_2O_2 \rightarrow 2H_2O + O_2$. What is the qualitative change in entropy ($$\Delta S$$)?

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta S$$ increases because a gas is produced.

Question 11

State the Second Law of Thermodynamics and its importance.

Accepted Answer

The entropy of the universe always increases in a spontaneous process.

Question 12

What is a 'microstate' in thermodynamics?

Accepted Answer

A single possible arrangement of the positions and energies of the particles in a system.

Question 13

How does $$\Delta S_{sys}$$ and $$\Delta S_{surr}$$ depend on temperature?

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta S_{surr} is $$inversely proportional to temperature.

Question 14
