1.       (a) State if the sign in (+) or (-) for the following description.

                      Q is (      ) if the test tube is getting hot.

                        W is (      ) if the system is expanding.

                        W is (      ) if the work is done by the surrounding on the system.

                        H is (      ) if the reaction is endothermic.

                        S is (      ) if solid sublimes.

                        G is (      ) if the reaction is spontaneous.

 

(e)   Define entropy. Give an example of a reaction that would increase entropy.

 

 

Solutions

Expert Solution

Q is positive that means heat energy is released during the reaction.

Test tube is getting hot because of the evolution of heat energy.

This is an example of exothermic reaction.

W is positive when the work is done by the system.

W is negative when the work is done on the system by the surroundings.

H is positive when the reaction is endothermic.

During an endothermic reaction, heat energy is absorbed by the system.

S(entropy) is positive during sublimation of a solid.

This is because the degree of disorderness increases in case of gases.

G is negative in case of spontaneous reactions.

(e) Entropy is the thermodynamic physical quantity which represents the degree of disorderness of the system.

example: Burning of inscence stick is an example of positive entropy.

Where disorderness of the molecules increases.

Recall that a float is stored in the following format: ±sign 1.mantissa • 2^exponent?127 where sign is 1 bit, exponent is 8 bits, and mantissa is 23 bits. Write a C function that accepts an int parameter and returns a float represented by the bits in the int. The 32-bit integer is organized as 1-bit sign, 8-bit exponent, 23-bit mantissa. For example, 0x3F800000 represents 1.0 because the sign bit is 0, the exponent is 127, and the mantissa is all...
