Answer:

2.16x10⁻²

Explanation:

First, let's find out the molar concentrations of the reactants. The molar mass of CH4 is 16 g/mol, and of CO2 is 44 g/mol. The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass:

nCH4 = 24.0/16 = 1.5 moles

nCO2 = 88.0/44 = 2 moles

The concentration is the number of moles divded by the volume, thus:

[CH4] = 1.5/1 = 1.50 M

[CO2] = 2/1 = 2.00 M

For the equilibrium reaction, let's do an equilibrium chart:

CH4(g) + CO2(g) ⇄ 2CO(g) + 2H2(g)

1.50 2.00 0 0 Initial

-x -x +2x +2x Reacts (stoichiometry is 1:1:2:2)

1.50-x 2.00-x 2x 2x Equilibrium

As sateted in problem, [CH4] = 2.70*[CO]

1.50 - x = 2.70*2x

1.50 - x = 5.4x

6.4x = 1.50

x = 0.2344

Thus, at equilibrium:

[CH4] = 1.50 - 0.2344 = 1.2656 M

[CO2] = 2.00 - 0.2344 = 1.7656 M

[CO] = 2*0.2344 = 0.4688 M

[H2] = 2*0.2344 = 0.4688 M

The equilibrium constant is the multiplication of the concentrations of the products elevated by their coefficients, divided by the multiplication of the concentration of the reactants elevated by their coefficients.

K = ([CO]²*[H2]²)/([CH4]*[CO2])

K = (0.4688²*0.4688²)/(1.2656*1.7656)

K = 0.0483/2.2345

K = 2.16x10⁻²

What is the oh- in a solution with a poh of 5.71
Rudik [331]

Answer:- The hydroxide ion concentration of the solution is 1.95*10^-^6 .

Solution:- The formula used to calculate pOH from hydroxide ion is:

pOH=-log[OH^-]

When pOH is given and we are asked to calculate hydroxide ion concentration then we multiply both sides by negative sign and take antilog and what we get on doing this is:

[OH^-]=10^-^p^O^H

pOH is given as 5.71 and we are asked to calculate hydrogen ion concentration. Let's plug in the given value in the formula:

[OH^-]=10^-^5^.^7^1

[OH^-] = 0.00000195 or 1.95*10^-^6

So, the hydroxide ion concentration of the solution is 1.95*10^-^6 .
