Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Energy possessed by an object due to it position is known as potential energy. Whereas energy possessed by an object due to its motion is known as kinetic energy.

For example, water behind a dam has potential energy.

Therefore, we can conclude that when describing the energy of position then the best term is potential.

At 500 K, the reaction is at equilibrium with the following concentrations. [PCI5]= 0.0095 M [PCI3] = 0.020 [CI2] = 0.020 M What

Ad libitum [116K]

Although it is omitted, the reaction equation for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride is:
PCl₅ → PCl₃ + Cl₂

The equilibrium constant's equation then becomes:
Kc = [PCl₃]*[Cl₂] / [PCl₅]
Kc = (0.02 * 0.02) / 0.0095
Kc = 0.042

The equilibrium constant is 0.042.

What is the current in 160V current if the resistance is 20

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Current, I = 8 A

Explanation:

We have,

Voltage, V = 160 V

Resistance, R = 20 ohms

It is required to find the current. The relation between current, voltage and resistance is called Ohm's law. It is given as :

$V=IR$

I = current

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{160}{20}\\\\I=8\ A$

So, the value of current is 8 A.

If 45.6 grams of water decompose at 301 Kelvin and 1.24 atmospheres, how many liters of oxygen gas can be produced? Show all of

Artyom0805 [142]

This reaction is called the electrolysis of water. The balanced reaction is:

2H2O = 2H2 + O2

<span>
We are given the amount of water for the electrolysis reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculation.

45.6 grams H2O (1 mol H2O / 18.02 g H2O) (1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O) = 1.27 mol O2

V = nRT/P = </span><span>1.27 mol O2 (0.08206 atm L / mol K) (301 K) / 1.24 atm
V = 25.20 L O2</span>
