Estimate whether the entropy of the system increases or decreases during each process. (a) photodissociation of O2(g), (b) formation of ozone from oxygen molecules and oxygen atoms, (c) diffusion of CFCs into the stratosphere, (d) desalination of water by reverse osmosis.

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

x

10

23

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

f

6

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.
