Answer:

The mixing of two chemicals may result in the production of a gas which is lost to the air. This will reduce the mass of the chemical mixture, because mass is being lost in a gaseous form.

Answer:

The answer is " $\bold{0.525\ \ atm^{-1}}$ "

Explanation:

Given equation:

$2SO_2(g) + O_2(g) \leftrightharpoons 2SO_3(g)$

Given value:

$\Delta rH =-198.2 \ \ \frac{KJ}{mol}$

$Kp=1100 \ K$

$\Delta x = 2-(2+1)\\\\$

$= 2-(2+1)\\\\= 2-(3)\\\\= -1$

$\left\begin{array}{cccc}I\ (atm)&1&0.5&0\\C\ (atm)&2x&-x&2x\\E\ (atm) &1-2x&0.5-x&2x\end{array}\right$

calculating the total pressure on equilibrium= $(1-2x)+(0.5-x)+2x \ atm\\\\$

$= 1-2x+0.5-x+2x\\\\= 1+0.5-x\\\\=1.5-x\\$

$\therefore \\\\\to 1.50-x= 1.35 \\\\\to 1.50-1.35= x\\\\\to 0.15= x\\\\ \to x= 0.15\\\\$

calculating the pressure in $So_2$ :

$= (1-2 \times 0.15)$

$= 1-0.30 \\\\ =0.70 \ atm$

calculating the pressure in $O_2$ :

$= (0.5- 0.15)\\\\= 0.35 \ atm \\$

calculating the pressure in $So_3$ :

$= (2 \times 0.15)\\\\= (.30) \ atm \\\\$

Calculating the Kp at 1100 K:

$= \frac{(Pressure(So_3))^2}{(Pressure(So_2))^2 \times Pressure(O_2)}\\\\= \frac{0.30^2}{0.70^2 \times 0.35}\\\\= \frac{0.30 \times 0.30 }{0.70\times 0.70 \times 0.35}\\\\= \frac{0.09 }{0.49\times 0.35} \\\\= \frac{0.09 }{0.1715} \\\\= 0.5247 \ \ or \ \ 0.525 \ \ atm^{-1} \\\\$

How do you determine how many electron energy levels an element has

vivado [14]

Answer:36

Explanation:

Atoms must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. In our example, an atom of krypton must contain 36 electrons since it contains 36 protons. Electrons are arranged around atoms in a special way.
