My view point is that i disagree and that the rules are completely different
C table snap Lt it is a compound
b. o2
oxygen is diatomic because 1 molecule is made of 2 atoms of oxygen
Answer:
The pressures will remain at the same value.
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance that alter the rate of a chemical reaction. It either speeds up the or slows down the rate of a chemical reaction.
While a catalyst affects the rate, it is noteworthy that it has no effect on the equilibrium position of the chemical reaction. A catalyst works by creating an alternative pathway for the reaction to proceed. Most times, it decreases the activation energy needed to kickstart the chemical reaction.
Hence, we know that it has no effect on the equilibrium position. Factors affecting equilibrium position includes, temperature and concentration of reactants and products( pressure in terms of gases).
The reactants and the products here are gaseous, and as such pressure affects the equilibrium position. Now, we have established that the equilibrium position is unaffected. And as such the pressure affecting it does not change.
Thus, we have established that the pressure of the products and reactants are unaffected and as such they remain at their value unaffected.
We first need to find the number of moles of gas in the container
PV = nRT
where;
P - pressure - 2.87 atm x 101 325 Pa/atm = 290 802.75 Pa
V - volume - 5.29 x 10⁻³ m³
n - number of moles
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 230 K
substituting these values in the equation
290 802.75 Pa x 5.29 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 230 K
n = 0.804 mol
the molar mass = mass present / number of moles
molar mass of gas = 56.75 g / 0.804 mol
therefore molar mass is 70.6 g/mol
