Bob puts several pieces of dry ice inside an empty water bottle and covers the spout with a balloon. After 5 minutes the balloon is inflated. Elaborate on what process is occurring.
A) The expanding gas is exerting pressure and doing work on the walls of the balloon causing it to inflate.
B) Quick moving molecules of the developing balloon use the gas to create work and put energy into the system.
C) The slow moving particles of the gas are transferring entropy to the expanding balloon causing it to weaken.
D) Energy is converted to enthalpy as the compression dry ice particles occurs and the gas collides with other gas particles.

A0.10 m aqueous solution of sodium sulfate is a better conductor of electricity than a 0.10 m aqueous solution of sodium chloride. which of the following best explains this observation? (a) sodium sulfate is more soluble in water than sodium chloride. (b) sodium sulfate has a higher molar mass than sodium chloride. (c) to prepare a given volume of 0.10 m solution, the mass of sodium sulfate needed is more than twice the mass of sodium chloride needed. (d) more moles of ions are present in a given volume of 0.10 m sodium sulfate than in the same volume of 0.10 m sodium chloride. (e) the degree of dissociation of sodium sulfate in solution is significantly greater than that of sodium chloride.
