Without doing any calculations, match the following thermodynamic properties with their appropriate numerical sign for the following endothermic reaction. 2N2(g) + O2(g)2N2O(g) Clear All > 0 Hrxn < 0 Srxn = 0 Grxn > 0 low T, < 0 high T Suniverse < 0 low T, > 0 high T

∆H > 0

∆Srxn <0

∆G >0

∆Suniverse <0

Explanation:

We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.

Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.

The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.

Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.

water is used to store them because it would keep the radiation from getting out in the open and causing harm to the workers
