A company desires to produce nickel from refining nickel oxide and sulfide ores. the first step of the process will produce a ni
ckel carbonyl gas ni(co)4 by heating the ore. the second step is as follows: ni(co)4( g. ni(s) + 4co( g. how would you accelerate the production of ni? select all that apply. reduce the concentration of nico4 increase the concentration of nico4 withdraw co from the products as it is forming adding co to the reaction
Answer is: increase the concentration of NiCO₄ and <span>withdraw CO from the products as it is forming.
Balanced chemical reaction: NiCO</span>₄(g) ⇄ Ni(s) + 4CO(g). According to Le Chatelier's Principle the position of equilibrium
moves to counteract the change: 1) the position of equilibrium will move to the right, so
that the concentration of nickel carbonyl gas decreases again and produce more nickel. 2) the position of equilibrium will move to the right, if we decrease concentration of carbon monoxide, more nickel carbonyl gas will decompose and produce more nickel.
Argon is often used for storing chemicals because it is a noble gas and pretty much totally nonreactive. Nitrogen is also a possible answer, as it mostly doesn't reactive with phosphorus and is more readily available.
They provide a place for marine life to flourish, that would otherwise most-likely go extinct because of the constant decrease of natural reefs in our oceans.
