Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

Let's write the equilibrium reaction:

CO(g) + NH3(g) <------> HCONH2(g)   Kc = 0.9

We know the initial concentrations which are 1 and 2 M. In order to know the concentration of equilibrium, we need to do an ICE chart, and then, write the equilibrium expression for this reaction to calculate the concentration.

The ICE chart:

       CO(g) + NH3(g) <------> HCONH2(g)   Kc = 0.9

i)        1              2                         0

c)       -x           -x                          x

e)      1-x          2-x                        x

The equilibrium expression:

Kc = [HCONH2] / [CO][NH3]

Replacing the values we have:

0.9 = x / (1-x)(2-x)

0.9(1-x)(2-x) = x

0.9(x²-3x+2) = x

0.9x² - 2.7x + 1.8 = x

0.9x² - 3.7x + 1.8 = 0

From here, we solve for x using the general formula for a quadratic expression:

x = -b ±√b² - 4ac / 2a

Replacing the values here:

x = 3.7 ±√(3.7)² - 4 * 0.9 * 1.8 / 2*0.9

x = 3.7 ±√13.69 - 6.48 / 1.8

x = 3.7 ± 2.69 / 1.8

x1 = 3.7 - 2.69 / 1.8 = 0.56

x2 = 3.7 + 2.69 / 1.8 = 3.55

As 3.55 is > 1 and 2 from the initial concentrations, the correct value is x1 therefore:

[HCONH2] = 0.56 M

Nina [5.8K]

In reaction 1 of the Krebs cycle, acetyl‑CoA formed in the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction condenses with the four‑carbon compound to form <em>citrate </em>with the elimination of coenzyme A. Since the product has three carboxyl groups, this pathway is referred to as the cycle. In reaction 2 of the Krebs cycle, this product then undergoes to form<em> isocitrate. </em>The enzyme is called aconitase because the compound cis‑aconitate is the <em>intermediate product</em> of the reaction. Reaction 3 eliminates CO2 to form the five‑carbon dicarboxylic acid <em>α-cetoglutarate. </em>Oxidation also occurs, with electrons transferred from the substrate to <em>COO-</em> . Consequently, this reaction is an oxidative decarboxylation.

In the image, you can see the reaction 2 in Krebs cycle is a two steps reaction with an intermediate cis-aconitase and a product called isocitrate.

An ideal gas sealed in a rigid 4.86-L cylinder, initially at pressure Pi=10.90 atm, is cooled until the pressure in the cylinder
seraphim [82]

Answer:

\Delta H=-11897J

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, it is widely known that for isochoric processes, the change in the enthalpy is computed by:

\Delta H=\Delta U+V\Delta P

Whereas the change in the internal energy is computed by:

\Delta U=nCv\Delta T

So we compute the initial and final temperatures for one mole of the ideal gas:

T_1= \frac{P_1V}{nR}=\frac{10.90atm*4.86L}{0.082*n}=\frac{646.02K  }{n} \\\\T_2= \frac{P_2V}{nR}=\frac{1.24atm*4.86L}{0.082*n}=\frac{73.49K  }{n}

Next, the change in the internal energy, since the volume-constant specific heat could be assumed as ³/₂R:

\Delta U=1mol*\frac{3}{2} (8.314\frac{J}{mol*K} )*(73.49K-646.02K )=-7140J

Then, the volume-pressure product in Joules:

V\Delta P=4.86L*\frac{1m^3}{1000L} *(1.24atm-10.90atm)*\frac{101325Pa}{1atm} \\\\V\Delta P=-4756.96J

Finally, the change in the enthalpy for the process:

\Delta H=-7140J-4757J\\\\\Delta H=-11897J

Best regards.
