- The deciding factor on why HF is a weak acid and not a strong acid like the other hydrogen halides is entropy. What occurs when HF dissociates in water as compared to the other hydrogen halides?arrow_forwardUnder what conditions is the entropy of a substance equal to zero?arrow_forwardPlants take in CO2(g) and H2O(l) and make glucose, C6H12O6(s), and O2(g). Determine the standard entropy change for the overall reaction.arrow_forward
- The third law of thermodynamics says that a perfect crystal at 0 K has zero entropy. The standard entropy of a substance, S can be determined by evaluating the energy required to carry out conversion from 0 K to standard conditions. What information would be needed to calculate S for liquid water at 298 K and 1 bar?arrow_forwardThe element helium is thought to remain a liquid at absolute zero. Solid helium can be made only by exerting a pressure of about 26atm on a liquid sample. Is the entropy of liquid helium at absolute zero exactly zero? Why or why not?arrow_forwardThe deciding factor on why HF is a weak acid and not a strong acid like the other hydrogen halides is entropy. What occurs when HF dissociates in water as compared to the other hydrogen halides?arrow_forward
- Use data from Appendix D to calculate the standardentropy change at 25°C for the reaction CH3COOH(g)+NH3(g)CH3NH2(g)+CO2(g)+H2(g) Suppose that 1.00 mol each of solid acetamide, CH3CONH2(s), and water, H2O(l), react to give thesame products. Will the standard entropy change belarger or smaller than that calculated for the reactionin part (a)?arrow_forwardConsider the system shown in Figure 16.9. What is the change in entropy for the process where the energy is initially associated only with particle A, but in the final state the energy is distributed between two different particles?arrow_forwardThe third law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a perfect crystal at 0 K is zero. In Appendix 4, F(aq), OH(aq), and S2(aq) all have negative standard entropy values. How can S values be less than zero?arrow_forward
- In Figure 16.8 all possible distributions and microstates are shown for four different particles shared between two boxes. Determine the entropy change, S, if the particles are initially evenly distributed between the two boxes, but upon redistribution all end up in Box (b).arrow_forwardIn Figure 16.8 all of the possible distributions and microstates are shown for four different particles shared between two boxes. Determine the entropy change, S, for the system when it is converted from distribution (b) to distribution (d).arrow_forward
