okay, thanks for replying again. Just one more thing, at negative temperature is the entropy 0?
Because I can't do ln for a negative number.
I used this equation : Δr S Tf= Δr S Ti + Δr CP ln(Tf / Ti)
in a follow up question I was asked "obtain the reaction entropy, ∆rS, for such a temperature" (which I calculated to be -1725.15k)
So I tried using this:
Δr S0 Tf= Δr S0 Ti + Δr CP ln(Tf / Ti)
but I can't do ln for a negative number so is my temperature calculation wrong?
Homework Statement
Organic life is based on complex organic molecules formed from smaller ones during a long evolution. Using data in Appendix 2, investigate one such reaction:
2 C2H6 (g) → C4H10 (g) + H2 (g)
(a) Calculate ∆rH and ∆rS for such a reaction under standard conditions (Po = 1 bar...
hey guys one more thing.
For part B)
For He at 300 K, obtain speeds v1 and v2 for which F(v) = Fmax/2, and then calculate the fraction of particles with speeds v between v1 and v2.
Analyze and conclude if this fraction depends on T and m0, and if yes, how exactly by calculating it for He at...
yes that makes sense but I am not sure we are allowed to do that. But still ,I will use your method if I don't get it resolved by tomorrow. Anyways, do you think there is a way to to isolate for V (from my work above)? you don't have to tell me the answer, yes/no will suffice as I don't really...
alright so this is what I have so far
Original equation and doing some rearranging, I get:
got this far?? Is this correct so far? I can't seem to isolate V
Well not much, I tried isolating for V from that equation I provided above but I couldn't get it by it self. And, the V(most probable) I got = 1116.74m/s
