The equilibrium expression shows the ratio between
products and reactants. This expression is equal to the concentration of the
products raised to its coefficient divided by the concentration of the
reactants raised to its coefficient. The correct equilibrium expression for the
given reaction is:<span>
<span>H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) = H3O+(aq) + HCO3-1(aq)
Kc = [HCO3-1] [H3O+] / [H2O] [H2CO3]</span></span>
Combination
Hope this helps :)
Explanation:
Reversible reactions that happen in a closed system eventually reach equilibrium. At equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products do not change. But the forward and reverse reactions have not stopped - they are still going on, and at the same rate as each other.
There is thermal energy, but temperature is also a measure of the average kinetic energy, so either of those should be acceptable answers for the question.
Conduction: In the conduction, the heat is transferred from the hotter body to the colder body until the temperature on both bodies are equal.
In thermal equilibrium, there is no heat transfer as the heat is transferred till the temperature on the bodies are not same.
In the given problem, an iron bar at 200°C is placed in thermal contact with an identical iron bar at 120°C in an isolated system. After 30 minutes, the thermal equilibrium is attained. Then, the temperature on both iron bars are equal.Both iron bars are at 160°C in an isolated system.
But in an open system, the temperatures of the iron bars after 30 minutes would be less than 160°C. There will be heat lost to the surrounding. The room temperature is 25°C. There will be exchange of the heat occur between the iron bars and the surrounding. But It would take more than 30 minutes for both iron bars to reach 160°C because heat would be transferred less efficiently.
