Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
The equation for the reaction can be represented as:
The I.C.E table can be represented as:
2SO₂ O₂ 2SO₃
Initial: 14 2.6 0
Change: -2x -x +2x
Equilibrium: 14 - 2x 2.6 - x 2x
However, Since the amount of sulfur trioxide gas to be 1.6 mol.
SO₃ = 2x,
then x = 1.6/2
x = 0.8 mol
For 2SO₂; we have 14 - 2x
= 14 - 2(0.8)
= 14 - 1.6
= 12.4 mol
For O₂; we have 2.6 - x
= 2.6 - 1.6
= 1.0 mol
Thus;
[SO₂] = moles / volume = ( 12.4/50) = 0.248 M ,
[O₂] = 1/50 = 0.02 M ,
[SO₃] = 1.6/50 = 0.032 M
Kc = [SO₃]² / [SO₂]² [O₂]
= ( 0.032²) / ( 0.248² x 0.02)
= 0.8325
Recall that; the equilibrium constant for the reaction = 0.8325;
If we want to find:
Then:
Since no temperature is given to use in the question, it will be impossible to find the final temperature of the mixture.

See detailed answer with explanation below.
Explanation:
Valence electrons are electrons found on the outermost shell of an atom. They are the electrons in an atom that participate in chemical combination. Recall that the outermost shell of an atom is also referred to as its valence shell. Let us consider an example; if we look at the atom, sodium-11, its electronic configuration is 2,8,1. The last one electron is the valence electron of sodium which is found in its outermost or valence shell.
Positive ions are formed when electrons are lost from the valence shell of an atom. For instance, if the outermost electron in sodium is lost, we now form the sodium ion Na^+ which is a positive ion. Positive ions possess less number of electrons compared to their corresponding atoms.
Negative ions are formed when one or more electrons is added to the valence shell of an atom. A negative ion possesses more electrons than its corresponding atom. For example, chlorine(Cl) contains 17 electrons but the chloride ion (Cl^-) contains 18 electrons.
In molecular compounds, a bond is formed when two electrons are shared between the bonding atoms. Each bonding atom may contribute one of the shared electrons (ordinary covalent bond) or one of the bonding atoms may provide the both shared electrons (coordinate covalent bond). The shared pair may be located at an equidistant position to the nucleus of both atoms. Similarly, the electron may be drawn closer to the nucleus of one atom than the other (polar covalent bond) depending on the electro negativity of the two bonding atoms.
The electrons are shared in order to complete the octet of each atom by so doing, the both bonding atoms now obey the octet rule. For example, two chlorine atoms may come together to form a covalent bond in which each chlorine atom has an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.

Answer:
Equilibrium shifts to the right
Explanation:
An exothermic reaction is one in which temperature is released to the environment. Hence, if the reaction vessel housing an exothermic reaction is touched after reaction completion, we will notice that the reaction vessel e.g beaker is hot.
To consider the equilibrium response to temperature changes, we need to consider if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. In the case of this particular question, it has been established that the reaction is exothermic.
Heat is released to the surroundings as the reactants are at a higher energy level compared to the products. Hence, increasing the temperature will favor the formation of more reactants and as such, the equilibrium position will shift to the left to pave way for the formation of more reactants. Thus , more acetylene and hydrogen would be yielded
