Consider a buffer solution containing CH3COOH and CH3COO-, with an equilibrium represented by: CH3COOH(aq) + H2O (l) ←----→ H3O+

(aq) + CH3COO- (aq) Describe what occurs if a strong acid such as HNO3 is added to the system, including an explanation of the direction of the equilibrium shift. Describe what occurs if a strong base such as KOH is added, including an explanation of the direction of the equilibrium shift.

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

(a) The buffer equilibrium

The equation for the buffer equilibrium is

\rm CH_{3}COOH(aq) + H$_{2}$O(l) $\, \rightleftharpoons \,$ CH$_{3}$COO$^{-}$(aq) + H$_{3}$O$^{+}$(aq)

(b) Addition of acid

If you add a strong acid like HNO₃, you are increasing the concentration of hydronium ion.

Per Le Châtelier's Principle, the system will respond in such a way as to decrease the concentration of hydronium ion.

The position of equilibrium will shift to the left.

(c) Addition of base.

If you add a strong base like KOH, The hydroxide ions will react with the hydronium ions to form water.

The concentration of hydronium ions will decrease.

Per Le Châtelier's Principle, the system will respond in such a way as to increase the concentration of hydronium ions.

The position of equilibrium will shift to the right.

What causes metal to emit light?​
Flauer [41]
Heating an atom excites its electrons and they jump to higher energy levels. When the electrons return to lower energy levels, they emit energy in the form of light. ... Every element has a different number of electrons and a different set of energy levels. Thus, each element emits its own set of colours.

The gas-phase reaction follows an elementary rate law and is to be carried out first in a PFR and then in a separate experiment
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The activation energy is =8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}

Explanation:

The gas phase reaction is as follows.

A \rightarrow B+C

The rate law of the reaction is as follows.

-r_{A}=kC_{A}

The reaction is carried out first in the plug flow reactor with feed as pure reactant.

From the given,

Volume "V" = 10dm^{3}

Temperature "T" = 300 K

Volumetric flow rate of the reaction v_{o}=5dm^{3}s

Conversion of the reaction "X" = 0.8

The rate constant of the reaction can be calculate by the following formua.

V= \frac{v_{0}}{k}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]

Rearrange the formula is as follows.

k= \frac{v_{0}}{V}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]............(1)

The feed has Pure A, mole fraction of A in feed y_{A_{o}} is 1.

\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta

\delta = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacte.

=1(2-1)=1

Substitute the all given values in equation (1)

k=\frac{5m^{3}/s}{10dm^{3}}[(1+1)ln \frac{1}{1-0.8}-1 \times 0.8] = 1.2s^{-1}

Therefore, the rate constant in case of the plug flow reacor at 300K is1.2s^{-1}

The rate constant in case of the CSTR can be calculated by using the formula.

\frac{V}{v_{0}}= \frac{X(1+\epsilon X)}{k(1-X)}.............(2)

The feed has 50% A and 50%  inerts.

Hence, the mole fraction of A in feed y_{A_{o}} is 0.5

\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta

\delta = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacted.

=0.5(2-1)=0.5

Substitute the all values in formula (2)

\frac{10dm^{3}}{5dm^{3}}=\frac{0.8(1+0.5(0.8))}{k(1-0.8)}=2.8s^{-1}

Therefore, the rate constant in case of CSTR comes out to be 2.8s^{-1}

The activation energy of the reaction can be calculated by using formula

k(T_{2})=k(T_{1})exp[\frac{E}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}})]

In the above reaction rate constant at the two different temperatures.

Rearrange the above formula is as follows.

E= R \times(\frac{T_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}-T_{2}})ln\frac{k(T_{2})}{k(T_{1})}

Substitute the all values.

=1.987cal/molK(\frac{300K \times320K}{320K \times300K})ln \frac{2.8}{1.2}=8.081 \times10^{3}cal\,mol^{-1}

=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}

Therefore, the activation energy is =8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}
