You know that each carbon atom can take as much as 4 bonds with other elements. A hydrogen can only take one bond, while an oxygen can take 2. Thus, the chemical formula of H₂CO may be written as H₂C=O which is acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde is an aldehyde. It has a higher vapor pressure because aldehydes have much stronger bonds than hydrogen bonds in alcohols. Hence, it would need a lot energy, thus higher vapor pressure, to break the bonds of an aldehyde than it would for an alcohol.

The reaction 2PH3(g)+As2(g)⇌2AsH3(g)+P2(g) has Kp=2.9×10−5 at 873 K. At the same temperature, what is Kp for each of the followi
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Part A

Kp = 3.4 x 10⁴

Part B

Kp = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁴

Part C

Kp = 1.2 x 10⁹

Explanation:

2PH₃(g) + As₂(g)  ⇌ 2 AsH₃(g) + P₂(g)  Kp = 2.9 x 10⁻⁵

Kp = [AsH₃]²[P₂]/[PH₃]²[As]  = 2.9 x 10⁻⁵

Part A

it is the inverse of the equilibrium given

Kp(A) = 1/ Kp = 1 / 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ = 3.4 x 10⁴

Part B

Is the equilibrium where the coefficients have been multiplied by 3,

Kp(B) = ( Kp )³ = ( 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ )³ = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁴

Part C

This is the  reverse equilibrium multipled by 2.

Kp(C) = ( 1/Kp)² = ( 1/ 2.9 x 10⁻⁵ )² = 1.2 x 10⁹

What is chemical weathering?
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

What is chemical weathering?  Your answer would be B. Abrasion

What are the three ways chemical weathering occurs?  1. Physical weathering

2. Chemical weathering , 3. Biological weathering

What is oxidation and what does it produce?  Cobalt-Oxide produces the colour blue. Hence the name "Cobalt Blue".

What is carbonation and what does it create?   The answers are A: It will not make enough food, and C: It will not convert enough CO2 into Glucose.

What is hydration and what does it do?   However, lipids are good for storage. Lipids are made up of triglyceride molecules, which are phosphate molecules with 3 long alkyl chains bound to it. Carbohydrate is a biological molecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O).Both Carbohydrates and lipids (fats) are important sources of energy.

In what type of environment is chemical weathering most likely to occur?   Chemical weathering happens the most in Tropical climates.
