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

if a 2.0g sample of water at 5.0celcius absorbs 21.8Joules of energy, the temprature of the sample will be raised by
Cerrena [4.2K]
You'd use the temperature change equation. The specific heat of water is always 4.18J/(g °C).
Equation to use: q=mCΔT

21.8=(2.0)(4.18)(Tf-5)
21.8=(8.36)(Tf-5)
21.8/8.36=Tf-5
2.61=Tf-5
2.61+5=Tf
Tf=7.61 °C

Since you want to know how many °C it raises, you wouldn't pay attention to the last 2 steps, however if you need to know the final temp, you want to go to the last step.

Which radioactive waste can be stored for decay and then safely released into the environment?
Natalka [10]

The radioactive waste can be stored for decay and then safely released into the environment is N-16.

<h3>What are the types of decay?</h3>

Decays can be of three types: alpha, beta and gamma. Each of them corresponds to a different radioactive particle, which changes the nucleus of the emitting atom according to its characteristics.

Nitrogen 16 ( 16 N ) is the unstable isotope of nitrogen whose nucleus consists of 7 protons and 9 neutrons. Its period is 7.13 s.

When the reaction shown is correctly balanced, the coefficients are: kclo3 → kcl + o2?
notka56 [123]
From the balanced equation 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, the coefficients are the following:
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chloride KCl 
coefficient 3 in front of oxygen molecule O2

We got this balanced equation by identifying the number of atoms of each element that we have in the given equation KClO3 → KCl + O2.
Looking at the subscripts of each atom on the reactant side and on the product side, we have
     KClO3 → KCl + O2
       K=1          K=1
       Cl=1         Cl=1
       O=3          O=2

We can see that the oxygens are not balanced. We add a coefficient 2 to the 3 oxygen atoms on the left side and another coefficient 3 to the 2 oxygen 
atoms on the right side to balance the oxygens:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
The coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3 multiplied by the subscript 3 of the oxygen atoms on the left side indicates 6 oxygen atoms just as the coefficient 3 multiplied by the subscript 2 on the right side indicates 6 oxygen atoms.

The number of potassium K atoms and chloride Cl atoms have changed as well:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
       K=2            K=1
       Cl=2          Cl=1
       O=6           O=6

We now have two potassium K atoms and two chloride Cl atoms on the reactant side, so we add a coefficient 2 to the potassium chloride KCl on the product side: 
     2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, which is our final balanced equation.
        K=2           K=2
        Cl=2          Cl=2
        O=6           O=6
The potassium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms are now balanced.
