Answer:

a.  pNO₂ = 1 atm    pN₂O₄ = 4 atm

b.  pNO₂ = 1 atm    pN₂O₄ = 4 atm

c. It does not matter.

Explanation:

From the information given in this question we know the equilibrium involved is

N₂O₄ (g) ⇄ 2 NO₂ (g)

with Kp  given by

Kp = p NO₂²/ p N₂O₄ = 0.25

We know that if we place 4.5 atm of N₂O₄ is placed in a flask, a quantity x is going to be consumed producing 2x atm of NO₂  and we can setup the following equation:

0.25 =  p NO₂²/ p N₂O₄ =  (2x)² / (4.5 - x)

0.25 x  (4.5 - x) = 4x²

4x² + 0.25 x - 1.125 = 0

after solving this quadratic equation, we get two roots

x₁ = 0.5

x₂ = -0.56

the second root is physically impossible, and the partial pressures for x₁ = 0.5  will be

pNO₂ = 2 x 0.5 atm = 1.0 atm

pN₂O₄ = (4.5 - 0.5) atm = 4.0 atm

Similarly for part b, we get the equilibrium equation

0.25 = (9- 2x)² / x

0.25x = 81 - 36x + 4x²

the roots of this equation are:

x₁ = 5.0625

x₂ = 4

the first root is physically impossible since it will give us a negative partial pressure of N₂O₄ :

p N₂O₄ = 9 - 2(5.0625) = -1.13

the second root give us the following partial pressures:

p N₂O₄ = (9 - 2x4) atm = 1 atm

p NO₂ = 4 atm

The partial pressures are the same, it does not matter from which direction an equilibrium position is reached since what is essential is that the partial pressures of the gasses N₂O₄ and  NO₂ obey the equilibrium equation.

Determine the mass fraction of iron in its compounds:

Explanation:

We have a molecule composed of 3" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: normal; one; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">33 iron atoms, and 4" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: p; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">44 atoms of another element. We are given the following information: it has 2.36 g" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">2.36 g2.36 g of iron for 3.26 g" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: -wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">3.26 g3.26 g of molecule.

I want to find the molar mass of the compound, I have tried so far:

m=3.26 g=0.00326 kg" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: normal; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; display: inline; text-indent: 0px; text-align: center; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">m=3.26 g=0.00326 kgm=3.26 g=0.00326 kg

Since it has 3" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; nt-variant: inherit; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: normal; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; display: inline; text-indent: 0px; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">FeFe and 4" role="presentation" style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: normal; ; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; position: relative;">44 atoms of an unknown substance, therefore:

Why is salt added to hot chicken soups during cooking besides giving the chicken soups a good taste?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The answer is option 3.

Explanation:

When salt is added to the water, the boiling point increases because it needs to take in more energy from heat to <u>b</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u>a</u><u>k</u><u> </u><u>d</u><u>o</u><u>w</u><u>n</u> the bonds and dissolve the salt in the water.

Which type of rock forms as a result of cooling and crystallization?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Igneous rock is the type of rock that forms as a result of cooling an crystallization

Explanation:

  • Rocks are either sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic based on the chemical composition and the mode of formation.
  • Igneous rocks are formed as a result of the cooling and crystallization of magma from volcanic eruptions.
  • Igneous rocks are either intrusive, which form deep in the crust or extrusive which form on the surface of the earth.
  • Sedimentary rocks are formed as a result of deposition, and cementation of sediments.
  • Metamorphic rocks, on the other hand, are formed from the sedimentary and igneous rocks during the rock cycle.
