A cation is a positive ion. That means it lost an electron.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

In a parallel circuit, current divides through resistors and current might be different depending upon the resistor and all resistors have the same potential difference. Therefore, if a parallel resistor was removed then the total resistance of the circuit will increase.

How to classify hemicetal and acetal
kumpel [21]
You might have meant hemiacetal, not hemicetal.
Acetals contain two –OR groups, one –R group and a –H atom. In hemiacetals, one of the –OR groups in acetals is replaced by a –OH group<span>.

Problem PageQuestionSteam reforming of methane ( ) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas,
Serhud [2]

The question is incomplete. Her eis the complete question.

Steam reforming methane  (CH4) produces "synthesis gas", a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 125L tank with 20 mol of methane gas and 10 mol of water vapor at 38°C. He then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the amount of gas hydrogen to be 18 mol. Calculate the concentration equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. Round your answer to significant digits.

Answer: K_{c} = 2.10^{-2}

Explanation: The reaction for steam reforming methane is:

CH_{4} + H_{2}O ⇒ CO_{} + 3H_{2}

To calculate the concentration equilibrium constant, first calculate the molarity (\frac{mol}{L}) of each molecule of the reaction.

At 38°C: At the initial temperature, there no products yet

<u>Molarity of CH4</u>:

CH4 = \frac{20}{125} = 0.16M

<u>Molarity of H20</u>:

H2O = \frac{10}{125} = 0.08M

At final temperature:

<u>Molarity of H2</u>:

H2 = \frac{18}{125} = 0.144M

According to the chemical reaction, the combination of 1 mol of each reagents produces 1 mol of CO and 3 mols of H2, so, for the products, the ratio is 1:3.

<u>Molarity of CO</u>:

CO = \frac{0.144}{3} = 0.048M

For the reagents, the proportion is 1:1, but they had an initial concentration, so, when in equilibrium, the concentration will be:

<u>Molarity of CH4</u>:

CH4 = 0.16 - 0.048 = 0.112M

<u>Molarity of H2O</u>:

H20 = 0.08 - 0.048 = 0.032M

The equilibrium constant is given by:

K_{c} = \frac{[CO][H_{2}]^{3} }{[CH_{4}][H_{2}O ] }

K_{c} = \frac{0.048.0.144^{3} }{0.112.0.032}

K_{c} = 2.10^{-2}

The concentration equilibrium constant for the process is K_{c} = 2.10^{-2}.

What is the relationship between a gene and a trait?
oee [108]
A gene is harder to explain but it is scientifically what decides who you are (what you look like) and a trait is something from how you act to somoyour interested in. Ex. Girl who is a dog lover
The gene decides she is a girl
The trait is that she likes dogs

Adding energy to solid water will turn it into ?
love history [14]

Answer:

Energy added to solid water will turn it into liquid water; add energy into liquid water and it will be turned into water vapor.

Explanation:

Adding energy is basically adding heat; the more heat, the more excited the molecules of H2O gets. In solid water, the molecules aren't really moving because they don't have a lot of energy, so it is solid. In liquid water (which is water in room temperature), it has a medium amount of energy; the molecules aren't stuck together but it isn't completely dispersed, so it is in liquid form. However, in water vapor, the energy becomes very high and the molecules are excited. The hydrogen bonds holding the molecules together break and the water is released as a vapor.
