The following system is at equilibrium:
Delvig [45]

Answer:

1) No shift

2) No shift

3) Leftward shift

4)Rightward sifht

Explanation:

1) 2) Adding N or Removing N in the equilibrium will produce No shift, because of its solid state, the N is not contemplated in the equilibrium equation:

K=\frac{[L]^2}{[M]^3}

3) Increasing the volume produces a decrase in the preassure due to the expansion of the gases. This will cause a leftward shift, because the system will try to increase the moles of gas and in consecuence of this, also increase the preassure.

4) Decreasing the volume has the opposite effect of the item 3): the preassure will increase and the system will consume moles of gas to decrease it, producing a rightward shift.

What is the empirical formula of a compound composed of 3.25% hydrogen ( H ), 19.36% carbon ( C ), and 77.39% oxygen ( O ) by ma
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The answer to your question is C₂HO₃

Explanation:

Data

Hydrogen = 3.25%

Carbon = 19.36%

Oxygen = 77.39%

Process

1.- Write the percent as grams

Hydrogen = 3.25 g

Carbon = 19.36 g

Oxygen = 77.39 g

2.- Convert the grams to moles

                     1 g of H ----------------- 1 mol

                   3,25 g of H -------------  x

                     x = (3.25 x 1) / 1

                     x = 3.25 moles

                    12 g of C ---------------- 1 mol

                     19.36 g of C ----------  x

                     x = (19.36 x 1) / 12

                     x = 1.61 moles

                     16g of O --------------- 1 mol

                     77.39 g of O ---------  x

                      x = (77.39 x 1)/16

                      x = 4.83

3.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Carbon = 3.25/1.61 = 2

Hydrogen = 1.61/1.61 = 1

Oxygen = 4.83/1.61 = 3

4.- Write the empirical formula

                        C₂HO₃

Choose the element described by the following electron configuration.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Argon

Explanation:

Electron configuration given               1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

To find the element whose electron configuration is given, we can do it by two methods.

Number 1. Sum all the exponents the result will give you the atomic number of the element.

                      2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 = 18

The element with an atomic number of 18 is Argon.

Number 2. Look at the last terms of the electronic configuration

                      3s² 3p⁶

Number three indicates that this element is in the third period in the periodic table.

Sum the exponents    2 + 6 = 8

Number 8 indicates that this element is the number 8 of that period without considering the transition elements.

The element with these characteristics is Argon.
