प्रश्न
Thermodynamics is not concerned about ______.
पर्याय
Energy changes involved in a chemical reaction.
The extent to which a chemical reaction proceeds.
The rate at which a reaction proceeds.
The feasibility of a chemical reaction
उत्तर
Thermodynamics is not concerned about the rate at which a reaction proceeds.
Explanation:
Thermodynamics is not concerned about how and at what rate these energy transformations are carried out but is based on initial and final states of a system undergoing the change. Laws of thermodynamics apply only when a system is in equilibrium or moves from one equilibrium state to another equilibrium state.
