Question

1. In the system shown below, there are 80 x particles, all in region A (the left half of the box). No extra particles can enter the system. When the system is in

equilibrium, what will be true of the particles?

A Since there are no y particles, the system is already in equilibrium with ail 80 x particles in A

B. Due to the constant motion of particles, this system will never reach equilibrium

C. In equilibrium, there will be exactly 40 x particles in A and 40 x particles in B, and those numbers will remain constant

Din equilibrium, there will be approximately 40 x particles in A and 40 x particles in B, and those numbers will fluctuate but will remain near 40

Answer 1

The correct answer is - option D. in equilibrium, there will be approximately 40 x particles in A and 40 x particles in B, and those numbers will fluctuate but will remain near 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilibrium is the condition where all the condition is where all the factors or influence forces are balanced in a particular system. The perfect balanced condition is not easy to get or can not remain constant for long.

In this example, both A and B get 40 x particles to be in equilibrium however fluctuation persists but still approx 40 remains.

Thus, the correct answer is - option D
