Which two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

C. Increasing the temperature

D. Reducing the pressure

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂0 + energy

Required

Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

Solution

The formation of H₂O is an exothermic reaction (releases heat)

If the system temperature is raised, then the equilibrium reaction will reduce the temperature by shifting the reaction in the direction that requires heat (endotherms). Conversely, if the temperature is lowered, then the equilibrium shifts to a reaction that releases heat (exothermic)  

While on the change in pressure, then the addition of pressure, the reaction will shift towards a smaller reaction coefficient  

in the above reaction: the number of coefficients on the left is 3 (2 + 1) while the right is 2

As the temperature rises, the equilibrium will shift towards the endothermic reaction, so the reaction shifts to the left towards H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)

And reducing the pressure, then the reaction shifts to the left H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)⇒the number of coefficients is greater

At a certain temperature, 0.800 mol SO 3 is placed in a 1.50 L container. 2 SO 3 ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − 2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) At equil
Elanso [62]

Answer : The value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 0.004

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of SO_3\text{ and }O_2

\text{Concentration of }SO_3=\frac{\text{Moles of }SO_3}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.800mol}{1.50L}=1.2M

and,

\text{Concentration of }O_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }O_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.150mol}{1.50L}=0.1M

Now we have to calculate the value of equilibrium constant (K).

The given chemical reaction is:

                       2SO_3(g)\rightarrow 2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)

Initial conc.       1.2             0               0

At eqm.          (1.2-2x)        2x               x

As we are given:

Concentration of O_2 at equilibrium = x = 0.1 M

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_c=\frac{[SO_2]^2[O_2]}{[SO_3]^2}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(2x)^2\times (x)}{(1.2-2x)^2}

K_c=\frac{(2\times 0.1)^2\times (0.1)}{(1.2-2\times 0.1)^2}

K_c=0.004

Thus, the value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 0.004

A compound is formed when 171.2g of carbon reacts with 28.8 g of hydrogen what is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound
PolarNik [594]
Hi.

You can calculate mass percent by dividing the mass by the total mass of the compound & multiplying by 100.

28.8 ÷ (171.2 + 28.8) = 0.144

0.144 · 100 = 14.4

I believe the mass percent of the hydrogen in the compound is 14.4%
