Often, the products of a chemical reaction can be combined with each other to form reagents again. The reactions in which this occurs are called reversible reactions. In these cases, the transformation of reactants into products is partial, reaching a state of chemical equilibrium in which the speeds of the direct reactions inverse are equalized.

The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is the value of its reaction quotient in chemical equilibrium. <u>The equilibrium constant (Kc) is expressed as the ratio between the molar concentrations (mol/L) of reactants and products</u>. Its value in a chemical reaction depends on the <u>temperature</u>, so it must always be specified.

In this way, we must first write the reaction in question (<em>do not forget to balance the reaction</em>),

H₂ + Br₂ → 2HBr

For this reaction the equilibrium constant is

Kc = \frac{[HBr]^{2} }{[H_{2} ][Br_{2} ]} = 1.6ₓ10⁵ at 1300 K.

The decomposition reaction of gaseous hydrogen bromide to form hydrogen gas and bromine vapor is

2HBr → H₂ + Br₂

Then, the equilibrium constant for this reaction is,

Kc' = \frac{[H_{2} ][Br_{2} ] }{[HBr]^{2}}

As you can notice <u>this equilibrium constant is the inverse of Kc</u>, so

Kc' = 1 / Kc = 1 / (1.6ₓ10⁵) → Kc' = 6.25ₓ10⁻⁶

So, the equilibrium constant for the decomposition of gaseous hydrogen bromide to form hydrogen gas and bromine vapor is 6.25ₓ10⁻⁶ at 1300 K.

The rate constant for a certain reaction is k = 5.40×10−3 s−1 . If the initial reactant concentration was 0.100 M, what will the
IceJOKER [234]

Answer : The concentration after 17.0 minutes will be, 4.05\times 10^{-4}M

Explanation :

The expression for first order reaction is:

[C_t]=[C_o]e^{-kt}

where,

[C_t] = concentration at time 't'  (final) = ?

[C_o] = concentration at time '0' (initial) = 0.100 M

k = rate constant = 5.40\times 10^{-3}s^{-1}

t = time = 17.0 min = 1020 s (1 min = 60 s)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

[C_t]=(0.100)\times e^{-(5.40\times 10^{-3})\times (1020)}

[C_t]=4.05\times 10^{-4}M

Thus, the concentration after 17.0 minutes will be, 4.05\times 10^{-4}M

On the reaction below, label the BSA, BSB, CA, and CB. CH3COOH + H2O → CH3COO– + H3O+
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Acid(BSA) = CH₃COOH

Base (BSB) = H₂O

Conjugate base (CB) = CH₃COO⁻

Conjugate acid (CA) = H₃O⁺

Explanation:

Equation of reaction;

CH₃COOH + H₂O → CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

Hello,

From my understanding of the question, we are required to identify the

1) Acid

2) Base

3) conjugate acid

4) conjugate base in the reaction

Acid (BSA) = CH₃COOH

Base (BSB) = H₂O

CA = conjugate acid = H₃O⁺

CB = conjugate base = CH₃COO⁻

Why do you think steeples and roofs might appear green, but a copper square does not?
Masteriza [31]
Because the copper roofs, have been outside for a while and oxidization has occurred.
When metals become oxidized they rust, but when copper becomes oxidized, it turns greenish.
So copper roofs oxidize and turn green from being outside and a copper square doesn’t if it’s inside.
