The given sentence is part of a longer question.
I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:
For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>). If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before
any reaction occurs?
(a) Q = K<span>; The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;
The reaction </span>will proceed to
the right.
(c) Q > K<span>; The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.
The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left,
since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:
Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.
Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.
The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.
At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp
If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,
If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.
Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.
Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.
The empirical formula is a formula of a compound showing the proportion of each element involved in the compounds but it does not represent the total number of atoms in the compound. It is the lowest number of ratio between the elements in the compound. In order, to determine the actual number of the atoms or the molecular formula of the compounds, we make use of the molar mass of the compound.
<span>To
determine the molecular formula, we multiply a value to the empirical formula.
Then, calculate the molar mass and see whether it is equal to the one
given (104.1 g/ mol). From the choices, the only valid options are b, d and e.
</span> molar mass
1 CH 13.02
8 C8H8 104.16
6 C6H6 78.12
Therefore the correct answer is option B.
Hey there!
The answer to this question would most likely be the 3rd choice, (option C)
Increasing the pressure on a gas decreases the volume

The number of moles of gas lost is 0.0213 mol. It can be solved with the help of Ideal gas law.
<h3>What is Ideal law ?</h3>
According to this law, "the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the number on moles of gas, directly proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e.
PV = nRT.
Where,
- p = pressure
- V = volume (1.75 L = 1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)
- T = absolute temperature
- n = number of moles
- R = gas constant, 8.314 J*(mol-K)
Therefore, the number of moles is
n = PV / RT
State 1 :
- T₁ = (25⁰ C = 25+273 = 298 K)
- p₁ = 225 kPa = 225 x 10³ N/m²
State 2 :
- T₂ = 10 C = 283 K
- p₂ = 185 kPa = 185 x 10³ N/m²
The loss in moles of gas from state 1 to state 2 is
Δn = V/R (P₁/T₁ - P₂/T₂ )
V/R = (1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)/(8.314 (N-m)/(mol-K) = 2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N
p₁/T₁ = (225 x 10³)/298 = 755.0336 N/(m²-K)
p₂/T₂ = (185 x 10³)/283 = 653.7102 N/(m²-K)
Therefore,
Δn = (2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N)*(755.0336 - 653.7102 N/(m²-K))
= 0.0213 mol
Hence, The number of moles of gas lost is 0.0213 mol.
