For the closed system below: Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq) 2Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq) How would you know if the system is at equilibrium?

1 answer:

5 0

For the chemical reactiom to be at equilibrium:
1- The rate of forward reaction must be equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
2- The mass of EACH element must be equal before and after the reaction (no NET change in mass), otherwise the equilibrium will shift.

Important note: you need to check the mass of each element before and after the reaction (i.e, reactants side and products side) and the not the mass of the system as a whole. This is because the mass of the whole system will be preserved whether the system is at equilibrium or not (this is the fundamental law of mass conservation)

Number #2 is joule

In the SI system the unit of heat is the joule. The calorie was defined so that the heat capacity of water was equal to one.The heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a defined amount of pure substances by one degree.

Number #3 is Endothermic

Why? I can't explain. I Just left class where they were just explaining that.

The lattice structure in a metal is _____ than the lattice structure of an ionic compound.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

<span>The lattice structure in a metal is weaker than the lattice structure of an ionic compound. This is because the metals have free electrons which can freely move around while ionic compounds are strongly bonded. Hope this answers the question.</span>

The reform reaction between steam and gaseous methane (CH4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and dihyd

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The answer is " $= 0.078 \ kg \ H_2$ ".

Explanation:

calculating the moles in $CH_4 =\frac{PV}{RT}$

$=\frac{(0.58 \ atm) \times (923 \ L) }{ (0.0821 \frac{L \cdot atm}{K \cdot mol})(232^{\circ} C +273)}\\\\=\frac{(535.34 \ atm \cdot \ L) }{ (0.0821 \frac{L \cdot atm}{K \cdot mol})(505)K}\\\\=\frac{(535.34 \ atm \cdot \ L) }{ (41.4605 \frac{L \cdot atm}{mol})}\\\\= 12.9 \ mol$

Eqution:

$CH_4 +H_2O \to 3H_2+ CO \ (g)$

Calculating the amount of $H_2$ produced:

$= 12.9 \ mol CH_4 \times \frac{3 \ mol \ H_2 }{1 \ mol \ CH_4}\times \frac{2.016 g H_2}{1 \ mol \ H_2}\\\\= 78 \ g \ H_2 \\\\= 0.078 \ kg \ H_2$

So, the amount of dihydrogen produced = $0.078 \frac{kg}{s}$
