What could make G become negative at a given enthaply and entropy?
Changing the temperature. my only explanation is I got it right so I hope this helps.
What is the enthalpy of cadmium carbonate and cadmium oxide?
Standard enthalpy of formation (kJ/mol) I could not find cadmium carbonate Cadmium oxide: -258.4 From the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics
What determine whether a reaction took place?
Use the following equation: delta G = delta H - T*deltaS. A reaction is spontaneous if delta G is negative. A reaction will always be spontaneous (under any temperature) only if the change in enthalpy (delta H) is negative and the change in entropy (delta S) is positive. If this is not the case, the reaction will only be spontaneous (negative delta G) for a range of temperatures (or could be always non-spontaneous)
Can entropy be zero?
I am not sure whether you refer to delta S (change in entropy) or entropy itself. So I'll answer for both.For S (entropy), which is defined by the function S=kln(omega), where k is Boltzmann's constant and omega is the number of microstates corresponding to a given state, the answer is no. Why? Omega (the number of microstates possible for a certain state) can never be smaller than one. Since Boltzmann's constant is a positive number and ln(omega) will always be greater or equal to zero, entropy will never be negative.However, when calculating delta S (change in entropy in a thermodynamic process), yes entropy can be negative. Remember entropy is essentially the state of disorder of a system since (on a macroscopic level) the natural progression of the world is from order to disorder. (For example, there are more ways to have a messy room than to have an impeccable, neat room). For the change in entropy to be negative just think of it in terms of the room analogy: initially, it was messy, but then it got neater. The state of disorder of things was lessened. Applying this to a chemistry example:CO 2 (g)--> CO 2 (s)An element/compound in a gaseous state always has a greater state of entropy (gaseous molecules are more free to move). However, an element/compound in a solid state has a smaller state of entropy because molecules in a solid are less free to move. Smaller state of entropy - greater state of entropy=negative entropy
How could one atom become positive and and another become negative?
Ions (atoms that have lost or gained electrons) can make an atom become positive (a cation) or negative (a anion). When an atom loses an electron it becomes positive since there are more protons (positively charged particles) than there are electrons (negatively charged particles) at that point. When an atom gains an electron it becomes negative because there are more electrons than are protons at that point.
What could make delta G become negative at a given enthalpy and entropy?
For delta G to become negative at a given enthalpy and entropy, the process must be spontaneous. This can happen when the increase in entropy is large enough to overcome the positive enthalpy, leading to a negative overall Gibbs free energy. This typically occurs at higher temperatures where entropy effects dominate.
What could make G become negative at a given enthalpy and entropy?
Changing the temperature
What could make Delta become negative at a given enthalpy and entropy?
The equation for ∆G is ∆G = ∆H - T∆S H is enthalpy and S is entropySo, ∆G is negative if T∆S is greater than ∆H
What could make G become negative at a given enthaply and entropy?
Changing the temperature. my only explanation is I got it right so I hope this helps.
What is the antonym of entropy?
Order or organization could be considered antonyms of entropy. Entropy refers to a state of disorder or randomness, so its opposite would imply a state of structure or coherence.
Can you decrease the entropy if yes then how and if not then why?
You cannot reduce entropy because entropy increases (Second Law of Thermodynamics), if you could, we could have perpetual motion. When work is achieved energy is lost to heat. The only way to decrease the entropy of a system is to increase the entropy of another system.
Under what condition can entropy decrease in a system?
First of all, entropy is the defined as the extent to which something is disordered. In chemistry, for entropy in a SYSTEM to decrease, the products of a reaction must be less disordered than the reactants. The extent of "disordered-ness" can be seen by the physical states of the substances. A gas is more disordered than a liquid, which is more disordered than a solid. So, an example of a reaction that leads to a decrease in entropy is: HCl(gas) +NH3(gas) -----> NH4Cl(solid) So you see, there are more gaseous molecules in the reactant side of the equation than in the product side, which means the products are less disordered than the reactants. ----------------------------------------------- However, one must note that if the entropy of a system(reaction) decreases, the entropy of the surroundings should increase. This is because change in TOTAL entropy(A) = change in entropy of SYSTEM(B) + change in entropy of SURROUNDINGS(C). It is a rule that A must increase in every case ( have a positive value). If the B is negative(a decrease in entropy), C must be positive(an increase in entropy) to keep the value of A positive.
When you add a positive and a negative what does it become?
the answer could be negative or positive depending on whether the negative number you're adding is bigger than the positive number
What else could exothermic and endothermic reactions be used?
They could be used for making science test or other things, per example: Many chemical reactions release energy in the form of heat, light, or sound. These are exothermic reactions. Exothermic reactions may occur spontaneously and result in higher randomness or entropy (ΔS > 0) of the system. They are denoted by a negative heat flow (heat is lost to the surroundings) and decrease in enthalpy (ΔH < 0). In the lab, exothermic reactions produce heat or may even be explosive.
According to the Gibbs free energy equation G H - T S when could a high temperature make a reaction that was nonspontaneous at low temperature spontaneous?
A high temperature could make a reaction spontaneous that was nonspontaneous at low temperature when the increase in entropy due to the reaction outweighs the increase in enthalpy. At higher temperatures, the TΔS term in the Gibbs free energy equation becomes more dominant, leading to a positive ΔG becoming negative, thus making the reaction spontaneous.
What is the relationship between entropy and energy?
In thermodynamics, entropy is a measure of the non-convertible energy (ie. energy not available to do work) inside a closed system. The concept of free energy involves tapping into an inexhaustible source of energy available to do work. Thus, in a system generating free energy, entropy would never increase, and the usable energy could be siphoned off forever. This illustrates, succinctly, why a free energy system can never exist.
What is stress response?
It could be negative if it goes on for along time. A person could also become depressed. But stress response could also be positive.
