Two nitro no2 groups are chemically bonded to a patch of surface. they can't move to another location on the surface, but they can rotate (see sketch at right). it turns out that the amount of rotational kinetic energy each no2 group can have is required to be a multiple of ε, where =ε×1.010−24 j. in other words, each no2 group could have ε of rotational kinetic energy, or 2ε, or 3ε, and so forth — but it cannot have just any old amount of rotational kinetic energy. suppose the total rotational kinetic energy in this system is initially known to be 32ε. then, some heat is removed from the system, and the total rotational kinetic energy falls to 18ε. calculate the change in entropy. round your answer to 3 significant digits, and be sure it has the correct unit symbol.

What happens when an atom of sulfur combines with two atoms of chlorine to produce sci2? a. each chlorine atom shares a pair of electrons with the sulfur atom. b. an electron is transferred from each chlorine atom to the sulfur atom. c. an electron is transferred from the sulfur atom to each chlorine atom. d. each chlorine atom shares all its valence electrons with the sulfur atom.
