Answer:

d. changing temperature

Explanation:

The thermodynamic equilibrium constant K is defined as a quantity characterizing the equilibrium of a chemical reaction. For a reaction where concentrations are in equilibrium:

aA + bB ⇄ cC + dD

The equilibrium constant is:

$k = \frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

Thus, the equilibrium constant will change if:

a. Varying the initial concentration of reactants . FALSE. The k constant doesn't depend of initial concentrations but concentration in equilibrium does.

b. Adding other substances that do not react with any of thespecies involved in the equilibrium . FALSE. The equilibrium constant just depends of substances that are involved in the equilibrium

c. Varying the initial concentration of products . FALSE. Again, equilibrium constant doesn't depend of initial concentrations.

d. Changing temperature . TRUE. As a thermodynamic constant, k depends of temperature thus:

$K = e^(-dG/RT)$

e. Changing the volume of the reaction vessel. FALSE. The changing in the volume of the reaction vessel will change just the initial concentrations of the reactants.

How acidic buffer resist change in pH on addition of acid and base.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Buffers are solutions that resist changes in pH, upon addition of small amounts of acid or base. The can do this because they contain an acidic component, HA, to neutralize OH- ions, and a basic component, A-, to neutralize H+ ions. Since Ka is a constant, the [H+] will depend directly on the ratio of [HA]/[A-].

The fizz produced when an Alka-Seltzer® tablet is dissolved in water is due to the reaction between sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3)

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

a. The limiting reactant is $NaHCO_{3}$

b. 0.73 g of carbon dioxide are formed.

c. The grams of excess reactant that do not participate in the reaction are 0333 g.

Explanation:

You know the following reaction:

$3NaHCO_{3} +H_{3} C_{6} H_{5} O_{7}$ ⇒ $3CO_{2} +3H_{2} O+Na_{3} C_{6} H_{5} O_{7}$

First, you determine the molar mass of each compound. For that you must take into account the atomic mass of each element:

Na: 23
H: 1
C: 12
O: 16

To determine the molar mass of each compound, you multiply the most atomic of each element present in the molecule by the sub-index that appears after each number, which indicates the present amount of each element in the compound:

$NaHCO_{3}$ :23+1+12+16*3=84 g/mol
$H_{3} C_{6} HO_{7}$ :1*3+12*6+1*5+16*7= 192 g/mol
$CO_{2}$ :12+16*2= 44 g/mol
$H_{2} O$ :1*2+16= 18 g/mol
$Na_{3} C_{6} H_{5} O_{7}$ : 23*3+12*6+1*5+16*7= 258 g/mol

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), you know that 3 moles of $NaHCO_{3}$ react with 1 mole of $H_{3} C_{6} HO_{7}$ Then, taking into account the molar mass of each compound, you can calculate the reacting mass of each compound by stoichiometry:

$NaHCO_{3}$ : 252 g
$H_{3} C_{6} HO_{7}$ : 192 g

You know that in a certain experiment you have 1.40 g of sodium bicarbonate and 1.40 g of citric acid. To determine the limiting reagent apply a rule of three simple as follows:

If by stoichiometry 252 g of sodium bicarbonate react with 192 g of citric acid, how many grams of sodium bicarbonate react with 1.4 grams of citric acid?

$grams of sodium bicarbonate= \frac{1.4 g*252 g}{192 g}$

grams of sodium bicarbonate= 1.8375 g

But to perform the experiment you have only 1.4 g of sodium bicarbonate. So the limiting reagent is sodium bicarbonate.

As mentioned, the limiting reagent is sodium bicarbonate. This means that you should use 1.4 g of sodium bicarbonate for all subsequent calculations, because this compound is the reagent that will be consumed first.

Now, by stoichiometry of the reaction, you know that 3 moles of $NaHCO_{3}$ react with 3 mole of $CO_{2}$ . Then, taking into account the molar mass of each compound, you can calculate the reacting mass of each compound by stoichiometry:

$NaHCO_{3}$ : 252 g
$H_{3} C_{6} HO_{7}$ : 132 g

You make a simple rule of three: if 252 g of sodium bicarbonate form 132 g of carbon dioxide per stochetry, how many grams will form 1.4 g of sodium bicarbonate?

$grams of carbon dioxide =\frac{1.4 g * 132 g}{252 g}$

grams of carbon dioxide= 0.73 g

Then, 0.73 g of carbon dioxide are formed.

To know how much citric acid will react you apply a rule of three, taking into account as in the previous cases the stoichiometry of the reaction: If by stoichiometry 252 g of sodium bicarbonate react with 192 g of citric acid, how many grams of citric acid will they react with 1.4 g of sodium bicarbonate?

$grams of citric acid=\frac{1.4 g * 192 g}{252 g}$

grams of citric acid= 1.067 g

But you have 1.4 g of citric acid. That means that the grams you have minus the grams that react will be the grams that remain in excess and do not participate in the reaction:

grams of excess reactant=1.4 g - 1.067 g

grams of excess reactant=0.333 g

So the grams of excess reactant that do not participate in the reaction are 0333 g.

Carbon has two naturally occurring isotopes: C-12 (natural abundance is 98.93%) and C-13 (natural abundance is 1.07%). How many

Sav [38]

The number of atoms present, on average, will be the natural abundance of the isotope times the number of atoms in the sample => number of C-13 atoms = C-13 abundance * number of atoms in the sample = 1.07% * 30,000 = 1.07 * 30,000 / 100 = 321 atoms. Answer: 321 atoms.

Most radiation is released as particles. Identify the type radiation that is not a particle.

Blizzard [7]

Gamma rays

Explanation:

Gamma rays is a form of electromagnetic radiation. It has zero mass and no charge.

Most radiations are particles but gamma rays are not particles they are mere rays.

They have an energy range between 10KeV and 3Mev
The range of gamma rays is not definite but it is very long.
The intensity of gamma rays for any medium decreases exponentially from the source.
Gamma rays are ionizing radiations
