delta is used in differential calculus as well as other places to indicate a very small amount. Taking water as an example, the oxygen carries a very samll charge and the hydrogens a small positive charge even though the molecule is covalently bonded. The small charge on the hydrogen (as opposed to a full positive charge) is called delta popsitive) and thus the charge on the oxygen is delta negative or more strictly 2 delta negative.
Photosynthesis is a positive delta G as it produces more free energy than it uses. The overall result of the Gibbs equations shows that delta G is positive
Elecronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract the electron density of a covalent bond to itself. Different atoms of elements have different electronegativities. As a result, in a covalent bond, the shared electrons are closer to the atom with the higher electronegativity or 'better pulling power' As a result, the atom with the higher electronegativity is 'slightly more negative' (delta negative dipole) and the other atom is 'slightly more positive' (delta positive dipole). As a result, a delta negative atom of one molecule will be attracted to the delta positive atom of another moleclue, and vice versa. As a result of this, the molecules are attracted to each other, forming dipole-dipole intermolecular forces. Hope this helps :)
The groups are: A negative A positive B negative B positive AB negative AB positive O Negative O positive
∆G = ∆H - T∆S and for it to be spontaneous, ∆G should be negative. If both ∆H and ∆S are positive, in order to get a negative ∆H, the temperature needs to be elevated in order to make the ∆S term greater than the ∆H term. So, I guess the answer would be "the higher the temperature, the more likely will be the spontaneity of the reaction."
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)
G is always positive when enthalpy increases and entropy decreases.
For a spontaneous reaction, the change in entropy (delta S) is typically positive.
Photosynthesis is a positive delta G as it produces more free energy than it uses. The overall result of the Gibbs equations shows that delta G is positive
Means a increase or decrease in disorder in the reaction depending on the sign ( "-" or"+")
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
Yes. Negative/negative = positive Postive/Positive = positive Negative/Positive - negative
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
A negative divided by a positive is negative. A negative divided by a negative is positive. A positive divided by a positive is positive. A positive divided by a negative is negative.
Negatives and Positives Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Negative = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative Positive + Negative = Negative
a negative x a negative= a positive, a positive x a positive= a positive, a negative x a positive= a negative, and a positive x a negative= a negative. Same thing with division. a negative divided by a negative= a positive, a positive divided by a positive= a positive, a negative divided by a positive= a negative, and a positive divided by a negative is a negative. U see?
