Cyclohexane, C6H12, undergoes a molecular rearrangement in the presence of AlCl3 to form methylcyclopentane, CH3C5H9, according

to the equation:
C6H12 ⇌ CH3C5H9
If Kc = 0.143 at 25°C for this reaction, find the equilibrium concentrations of C6H12 and CH3C5H9 if the initial concentrations are 0.200 M and 0. 075 M, respectively.

Answer:

[CH_3C_5H_9]=0.03441\ M

[C_6H_{12}]=0.24059\ M

Explanation:

The given equilibrium reaction and the equilibrium concentrations are shown below as:-

\begin{matrix}&C_6H_{12}&\rightleftharpoons &CH_3C_5H_9\\ At\ time, t = 0 &0.200&&0.075\\At\ time, t=t_{eq}&-x&&+x\\ ----------------&-----&-&-----\\Concentration\ at\ equilibrium:-&0.200-x&&0.075+x\end{matrix}

The Kc of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the equilibrium.

It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.

The expression for the Kc is:-

K_c=\frac{[CH_3C_5H_9]}{[C_6H_{12}]}

Given that:- Kc = 0.143

Thus, applying the values as:-

0.143=\frac{0.075+x}{0.200-x}

0.143\left(0.2-x\right)=0.075+x

-0.143x=x+0.0464

x=-0.04059

Thus,

[CH_3C_5H_9]=0.075+x=0.075-0.04059=0.03441\ M

[C_6H_{12}]=0.200-x=0.200-(-0.04059)=0.24059\ M

salantis [7]
1. The hypothesis for this is experiment is that the 50:50 of methanol-water mixture will not turn to solid when the temperature reaches to -40°C.

2. The procedure for this is measuring equal volumes of water and methanol using the graduated cylinder. You can measure 100 mL of water and 100 mL of methanol using the graduated cylinder. Then, mix them in the beaker. Next, measure 200 mL of water, and another 200 mL of methanol. Don't mix them. Also, make a 60:40 mixture by measuring 120 mL of water and 80 mL of methanol, then mix them together. Place them all in the refrigerator at the same time. Record the time when they would freeze to solid.

3. The controls for this experiment are the 200 mL water alone, and the 200 mL methanol alone.

4. The independent variable in here is the time, while the dependent variable is the temperature of the mixtures.

5. If the hypothesis turns out to be true, then all the mixtures prepared should freeze and become solid after a certain period of time, with the exception of the 50:50 mixture. The 50:50 mixture should still remain as a liquid even when left overnight.

Olin [163]

Answer:

The answer is 6.25g.

Explanation:

First create your balanced equation. This will give you the stoich ratios needed to answer the question:

2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O

Remember, we need to work in terms of NUMBERS, but the question gives us MASS. Therefore the next step is to convert the mass of O2 into moles of O2 by dividing by the molar mass:

7.72 g / 16 g/mol = 0.482 mol

Now we can use the stoich ratio from the equation to determine how many moles of H2O are produced:

x mol H2O / 0.482 mol O2 = 18 H2O / 25 O2

x = 0.347 mol H2O

The question wants the mass of water, so convert moles back into mass by multiplying by the molar mass of water:

0.347 mol x 18 g/mol = 6.25g
