An equilibrium mixture of PCl5(g), PCl3(g), and Cl2(g) has partial pressures of 217.0 Torr, 13.2 Torr, and 13.2 Torr, respective

ly. A quantity of Cl2(g) is injected into the mixture, and the total pressure jumps to 263.0 Torr (at the moment of mixing). The system then re-equilibrates. The appropriate chemical equation is PCl3(g)+Cl2(g) <-->PCl5(g) Calculate the new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished in torr

Answer:

The new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished:

PCl_3,p_1'=6.798 Torr

Cl_2,p_2'=26.398 Torr

PCl_5,p_3'=223.402 Torr

Explanation:

PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)

At equilibrium before adding chlorine gas:

Partial pressure of the PCl_3=p_1=13.2 Torr

Partial pressure of the Cl_2=p_2=13.2 Torr

Partial pressure of the PCl_5=p_3=217.0 Torr

The expression of an equilibrium constant is given by :

K_p=\frac{p_1}{p_1\times p_2}

=\frac{217.0 Torr}{13.2 Torr\times 13.2 Torr}=1.245

At equilibrium after adding chlorine gas:

Partial pressure of the PCl_3=p_1'=13.2 Torr

Partial pressure of the Cl_2=p_2'=?

Partial pressure of the PCl_5=p_3'=217.0 Torr

Total pressure of the system = P = 263.0 Torr

P=p_1'+p_2'+p_3'

263.0Torr=13.2 Torr+p_2'+217.0 Torr

p_2'=32.8 Torr

PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)

At initail

(13.2) Torr     (32.8) Torr                        (13.2) Torr

At equilbriumm

(13.2-x) Torr     (32.8-x) Torr                        (217.0+x) Torr

K_p=\frac{p_3'}{p_1'\times p_2'}

1.245=\frac{(217.0+x)}{(13.2-x)(32.8-x)}

Solving for x;

x = 6.402 Torr

The new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished:

p_1'=(13.2-x) Torr=(13.2-6.402) Torr=6.798 Torr

p_2'=(32.8-x) Torr=(32.8-6.402) Torr=26.398 Torr

p_3'=(217.0+x) Torr=(217+6.402) Torr=223.402 Torr

Silver occurs in trace amounts in some ores of lead, and lead can displace silver from solution: Pb(s) + 2Ag+ (aq) LaTeX: \longr
VikaD [51]

Answer : The value of \Delta G^o and K is, -180 kJ/mol and 3.6\times 10^{31}

Explanation :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

Pb(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(g)

The half-cell reactions are:

Oxidation reaction (anode) : Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction reaction (cathode) : 2Ag^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag(g)

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

E^o_{cell} = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.93 V

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 0.93

\Delta G^o=-179490J/mol=-179.49kJ/mol\approx -180kJ/mol

Now we have to calculate the value of 'K'.

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K

where,

\Delta G_^o =  standard Gibbs free energy  = -180 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K

T = temperature = 298 K

K = equilibrium constant = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

-180kJ/mol=-(8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K)\times (298K)\times \ln K

K=3.6\times 10^{31}

Therefore, the value of \Delta G^o and K is, -180 kJ/mol and 3.6\times 10^{31}

according to the kinetic molecular theory the pressure exerted by a sample of gas at constats volume doubles when the absolute t
ozzi

Answer: gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force

Explanation:

According to the postulates of  kinetic molecular theory:

1. The pressure exerted by a gas in a container results from collisions between the gas molecules and the container walls.

2. The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the kelvin temperature of the gas.

When the temperature is increased, so the average kinetic energy and the rms speed also increase. This means that the gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force because they are all moving faster. This increase the pressure.
