Identify the change in state that does not have an increase in entropy. a. Water evaporating b. Dry ice subliming c. Water boiling d. Ice melting e. Water freezing

E. Water Freezing

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system.  

A. Water Evaporating: There is an increase in entropy, this is because the phase change is from liquid to gas. Gas particles are more disordered than liquid.

B. Dry Ice sublimating: Sublimating refers to a phase change from solid to gas. This is an increase in entropy, this is because the gas particles are more disordered than solid particles

C. Water Boiling: The phase change is from liquid to gaseous state. There is an increase in entropy. Gas particles are more disordered than liquid.

D. Ice melting: The phase change is from solid to liquid state. There is an increase in entropy. Liquid particles are more disordered than that of solid.

E. Water Freezing: The phase change is from liquid to solid state. There is a decrease in entropy. solid particles are less disordered than those of liquid.

the equation that correctly represent the reaction for formation of ammonia is

n2+ 3h2 → 2nh3 (answer d)

1 mole of nitrogen gas (n2) react with 3 moles of hydrogen gas (h2) to form 2 moles of ammonia ( nh3). this is in a process known as haber process were iron is used as a catalyst and reaction take place that a higher temperature and pressure. the process is exothermic hence energy is released.
