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

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

X = 5

Explanation:

The molar ratio of water to copper(II) sulfate must be found.

The mass of water that must have been eliminated from the salt is found by the difference in weight before and after:

(500 g) - (320 g) = 180 g water eliminated

The moles of water (MW 18.02 g/mol) is then found:

(180 g) / (18.02g/mol) = 9.9889...mol

The mass of the dehydrated copper(II) sulfate (MW 159.609 g/mol) is converted to moles:

(320 g) / (159.609 g/mol) = 2.004899...mol

The molar proportion of water to the copper(II) sulfate is then calculated:

(9.9889...mol H₂O) / (2.0034899...mol CuSO₄) ≅ 5

What is chemical potential energy?
tigry1 [53]

Chemical potential energy: chemical potential of a species is energy that can be absorbed or released due to a change of the particle number of the given species, in a chemical reaction or phase transition

Gasoline used as kinetic energy: the various chemicals that make up gasoline contain a large amount of chemical potential energy that is released when the gasoline is burned in a controlled way in the engine of the car. The release of that energy does two things. Some of the potential energy is transformed into work, which is used to move the car

Dynamite used as kinetic energy: the dynamite being used was most likely made of nitroglycerin. Once the dynamite explodes from a percussion force (then breaking of weak bonds to releasing the raw atom) the energy is then converted to thermal, kinetic, and sound energy.
