Suppose a 500.mL flask is filled with 1.0mol of CO, 1.5mol of H2O and 0.70mol of CO2. The following reaction becomes possible: +

COgH2Og +CO2gH2g The equilibrium constant K for this reaction is 3.80 at the temperature of the flask. Calculate the equilibrium molarity of CO. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

[CO] = 0.62 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask = 500 mL

Number of moles CO = 1.0 moles

Number of moles H2O = 1.5 moles

Number of moles CO2 = 0.70 moles

The equilibrium constant K for this reaction is 3.80

Step 2: The balanced equation

CO(g) + H2O(g) ⇆ CO2(g) +H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate the initial concentrations

Concentration = moles / volume

[CO] = 1.0 moles / 0.500 L = 2.0 M

[H2O] = 1.5 moles / 0.500 L = 3.0 M

[CO2] = 0.70 moles / 0.500 L = 1.4 M

[H2] = 0M

Step 4: The concentration at the equilibrium

For 1 mol CO we have 1 mol H2O to produce 1 mol CO2 and 1 mol H2

[CO] = 2.0 -X M

[H2O] =  3.0 - X M

[CO2] =1.4 + X M

[H2] = X M

Step 5: Define Kc

Kc = [CO2][H2]/ [CO][H2O]

3.80 = (1.4 + X) * X / ((2.0 - X)*3.0 -X))

X = 1.38

[CO] = 2.0 -1.38 = 0.62 M

[H2O] =  3.0 - 1.38 = 1.62 M

[CO2] =1.4 + 1.38 M = 2.78

[H2] = 1.38 M

Kc = (2.78*1.38) / (0.62*1.62)

Kc = 3.8

[CO] = 0.62 M

a 1.25g sample of ore containing iron pyrite (FeS2) was pulverized and ignited in air, converting the FeS2 to Fe2O3 and SO2(g).
svp [43]

Answer:

28.9%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 FeS₂ + 11/2 O₂ ⇒ Fe₂O₃ + 4 SO₂

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of Fe₂O₃ is 159.6 g/mol
  • 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ is produced per 2 moles of FeS₂
  • 1 mole of Fe is in 1 mole of FeS₂
  • The molar mass of Fe is 55.84 g/mol

The amount of Fe in the sample that produced 0.516 g of Fe₂O₃ is:

0.516gFe_{2}O_{3}.\frac{1molFe_{2}O_{3}}{159.6gFe_{2}O_{3}} .\frac{2molFeS_{2}}{1molFe_{2}O_{3}} .\frac{1molFe}{1molFeS_{2}} .\frac{55.84gFe}{1molFe} =0.361gFe

The percent of Fe in 1.25 g of the ore is:

\frac{0.361g}{1.25g} .100\%=28.9\%

What is the mole fraction of water in pure water
irinina [24]
In pure water, all of the molecules in the liquid are water molecules so the mole fraction is 1 (100 % H2O, 55 mol/L). In sea water, the concentration of water molecules in the solution is less than that of pure water so the vapor pressure of sea water is also lower.

Why k has more shielding effect than Na?​
lara [203]

Explanation:

As the charge of all electrons are equal, the repulsive force exerted by each of them is also going to be equal. So, as K has more electrons repulsing its valence electron than Na, it has greater electron shielding.
