Answer:

0.846 moles.

Explanation:

  • This is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

  • It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

  • 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
  • ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
  • The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.

Phosgene, a poisonous gas, when heated will decompose into carbon monoxide and chlorine in a reversible reaction: COCl2 (g) &lt;
Advocard [28]

Answer:

8.08 × 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

The initial concentration of phosgene is:

M = 2.00 mol / 1.00 L = 2.00 M

We can find the final concentrations using an ICE chart.

     COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

I       2.00            0            0

C        -x             +x           +x

E    2.00 -x          x             x

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂, x, is 0.0398 mol / 1.00 L = 0.0398 M.

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[COCl₂] = 2.00 -x = 1.96 M

[CO] = [Cl₂] = 0.0398 M

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [CO].[Cl₂]/[COCl₂]

Keq = (0.0398)²/1.96

Keq = 8.08 × 10⁻⁴
