Answer:

The minimum volume of the container is 0.0649 cubic meters, which is the same as 64.9 liters.

Explanation:

Assume that ethane behaves as an ideal gas under these conditions.

By the ideal gas law,

P\cdot V = n\cdot R\cdot T,

\displaystyle V = \frac{n\cdot R\cdot T}{P}.

where

  • P is the pressure of the gas,
  • V is the volume of the gas,
  • n is the number of moles of particles in this gas,
  • R is the ideal gas constant, and
  • T is the absolute temperature of the gas (in degrees Kelvins.)

The numerical value of R will be 8.314 if P, V, and T are in SI units. Convert these values to SI units:

  • P =\rm 5.00\times 10^{2}\;kPa = 5.00\times 10^{2}\times 10^{3}\; Pa = 5.00\times 10^{5}\; Pa;
  • V shall be in cubic meters, \rm m^{3};
  • T = \rm 52.0 \textdegree C = (52.0 + 273.15)\; K = 325.15\; K.

Apply the ideal gas law:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}V &= \frac{n\cdot R\cdot T}{P}\\ &= \frac{12.0\times 8.314\times 325.15}{5.00\times 10^{5}}\\ &= \rm 0.0649\; m^{3} \\ &= \rm (0.0649\times 10^{3})\; L \\ &=\rm 64.9\; L\end{aligned}.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the oxidation of solid manganese dioxide to permanganate ion in basic aqueous solution. Be su
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

8 OH⁻(aq) + Mn(s) ⇒ MnO₄⁻(aq) + 4 H₂O(l) + 7 e⁻

Explanation:

Let's consider the following oxidation half-reaction that takes place in basic aqueous solution.

Mn(s) ⇒ MnO₄⁻(aq)

First, we will perform the mass balance. We will add 4 H₂O to the products side and 8 OH⁻ to the reactants side.

8 OH⁻(aq) + Mn(s) ⇒ MnO₄⁻(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

Finally, we will perform the charge balance by adding 7 electrons to the products side.

8 OH⁻(aq) + Mn(s) ⇒ MnO₄⁻(aq) + 4 H₂O(l) + 7 e⁻

In the citric acid cycle, malate is dehydrogenated to oxaloacetate in a highly endergonic reaction with a ΔG’o of +30 kJ mol-1:
Doss [256]

Answer :  The value of K_{eq} of this reaction is, 5.51\times 10^{-6}

At equilibrium, [L-malate] > [oxaloacetate]

Explanation :

The relation between the equilibrium constant and standard Gibbs free energy is:

\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln K_{eq}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy  = +30 kJ/mol = +30000 J/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mol

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

K_{eq}  = equilibrium constant  = ?

The given reaction is:

\text{L-malate}+NAD^+\rightleftharpoons \text{oxaloacetate}+NADH+H^+

\Delta G^o=-RT\times \ln K_{eq}

+30000J/mol=-(8.314J/K.mol)\times (298K)\times \ln K_{eq}

K_{eq}=5.51\times 10^{-6}

Therefore, the value of K_{eq} of this reaction is, 5.51\times 10^{-6}

As, the value of K_{eq} < 1 that means the reaction mixture contains reactants.

At equilibrium, [L-malate] > [oxaloacetate]
