- The molecular scale pictures below show snapshots of a strong acid at three different instants after it is added to water. Place the three pictures in the correct order so that they show the progress of the spontaneous process that takes place as the acid dissolves in the water. Explain your answer in terms of entropyarrow_forwardThere are millions of organic compounds known, and new ones are being discovered or made at a rate of morethan 100,000 compounds per year. Organic compoundsburn readily in air at high temperatures to form carbondioxide and water. Several classes of organic compoundsare listed, with a simple example of each. Write a balanced chemical equation for the combustion in O2ofeach of these compounds, and then use the data inAppendix J to show that each reaction is product-favoredat room temperature. From these results, it is reasonable to hypothesize thatallorganic compounds are thermodynamically unstable inan oxygen atmosphere (that is, their room-temperaturereaction with O2(g) to form CO2(g) and H2O() isproduct-favored). If this hypothesis is true, how canorganic compounds exist on Earth?arrow_forwardFor each of the following processes, identify the systemand the surroundings.

- The decomposition of diamond to graphite [C(diamond) C(graphite)] is thermodynamically favored, but occurs slowly at room temperature. a. Use fG values from Appendix L to calculate rG and Keq for the reaction under standard conditions and 298.15 K. b. Use fH and S values from Appendix L to estimate rG and Keq for the reaction at 1000 K. Assume that enthalpy and entropy values are valid at these temperatures. Does heating shift the equilibrium toward the formation of diamond or graphite? c. Why is the formation of diamond favored at high pressures? d.
