Answer:
To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.
For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.
Explanation:
Let´s consider the following reaction:
CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)
When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.
In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.
The equation is 2 NH3 (g) ⇀↽ N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g)
Difference in the number of moles delta n = ((3 + 1) - 2) = 4 - 2 = 2
We have an equation Kp= Kc (R x T) ^ (delta n); R is constant and T = 300 K
Kp / Kc = (R x T) ^2 Based on the temperature value (300 K), we can conclude that Kp is Larger.
Answer:
With an understanding of the ideal gas laws, it is now possible to apply these principles to chemical stoichiometry problems. For example, zinc metal and hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride dissolved in water) react to form zinc (II) chloride and hydrogen gas according to the equation shown below:
2 HCl (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)
Explanation:


Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is
).
Explanation :
In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.


where,
= specific heat of unknown metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 
= mass of unknown metal = 150 g
= mass of water = 200 g
= final temperature of water = 
= initial temperature of unknown metal = 
= initial temperature of water = 
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get


Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).
Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is
).
Answer:
15.04 mL
Explanation:
Using Ideal gas equation for same mole of gas as
Given ,
V₁ = 21 L
V₂ = ?
P₁ = 9 atm
P₂ = 15 atm
T₁ = 253 K
T₂ = 302 K
Using above equation as:
Solving for V₂ , we get:
<u>V₂ = 15.04 mL</u>
