The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.

Which proportionality applies to avogadro’s law?

The density of the solid phase of a substance is 0.90 g/cm3 and the density of the liquid phase is 1.0 g/cm3. a large increase in pressure will a. lower the freezing point b. raise the freezing point c. lower the boiling point d. raise the triple point e. lower the triple point
