Given the balanced equation: I2(s) + energy → I2(g)
As a sample of I2(s) sublimes to I2(g), the entropy of the sample
1. increases because the particles are less randomly arranged
2. increases because the particles are more randomly arranged
3. decreases because the particles are less randomly arranged
4. decreases because the particles are more randomly arranged
Which of these changes produces the greatest increase in entropy?
1. CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)
2. 2 Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2 MgO(s)
3. H2O(g) → H2O(l)
4. CO2(g) → CO2(s)
A thermometer is in a beaker of water. Which statement best explains why the thermometer reading initially increases when LiBr(s) is dissolved in the water?
The entropy of the LiBr(aq) is greater than the entropy of the water.
The entropy of the LiBr(aq) is less than the entropy of the water.
The dissolving of the LiBr(s) in water is an endothermic process.
The dissolving of the LiBr(s) in water is an exothermic process.
Which one of the following is NOT a key concept of the collision theory:
particles must collide in order to react
particles must move slowly when they collide, otherwise they simply “bounce off” one another
particles must collide with the proper orientation
particles must collide with sufficient energy to reach the activated complex in order to react
Which one of the following factors does not affect the rate of a chemical reaction:
humidity
temperature
concentration
The rate of a chemical reaction normally
increases as temperature decreases
decreases when a catalyst is added
increases as reactant concentration increases
decreases as reactant concentration increases
This reaction is reversible because a gas is generated and the reaction produced an increase in temperature
This reaction is spontaneous because a gas is generated and the reaction produced an increase in temperature
This reaction will not occur in real life because because a gas is generated and the reaction produced an increase in temperature.
Which statement is true regarding this chemical equation:

One mole of methane is required to react with 4 moles of oxygen gas.
One mole of methane is required to react with 2 moles of oxygen gas.
