Answer:
I believe it is Potassium (K)
Explanation:
I did the math on a calculator and it was the closest atomic mass to potassium.
Answer:
No one is correct. The correct expression is:
Keq = [H₂]² . [O₂]² / [H₂O]²
Explanation:
To build the Keq expression in a chemical equilibrium you must consider the molar concentrations of reactants / products, and they must be elevated to the stoichiometric coefficient.
The balance reaction is:
<u>2</u> H₂O (g) ⇄ <u>2</u> H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
Keq = [H₂]² . [O₂] / [H₂O]²
In opposite side: <u>2</u> H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ <u>2</u> H₂O (g)
Keq = [H₂O]² / [H₂]² . [O₂]
Answer:
Kp = 0.049
Explanation:
The equilibrium in question is;
2 SO₂ (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ 2 SO₃ (g)
Kp = p SO₃² / ( p SO₂² x p O₂ )
The initial pressures are given, so lets set up the ICE table for the equilibrium:
atm SO₂ O₂ SO₃
I 3.3 0.79 0
C -2x -x 2x
E 3.3 - 2x 0.79 - x 2x
We are told 2x = partial pressure of SO₃ is 0.47 atm at equilibrium, so we can determine the partial pressures of SO₂ and O₂ as follows:
p SO₂ = 3.3 -0.47 atm = 2.83 atm
p O₂ = 0.79 - (0.47/2) atm = .56 atm
Now we can calculate Kp:
Kp = 0.47² /[ ( 2.83 )² x 0.56 ] = 0.049 ( rounded to 2 significant figures )
Note that we have extra data in this problem we did not need since once we setup the ICE table for the equilibrium we realize we have all the information needed to solve the question.
