Titanium and chlorine react to form titanium(IV) chloride, like this:

leva [86]

Answer:

the value of equilibrium constant for the reaction is 8.5 * 10⁷

Explanation:

Ti(s) + 2 Cl₂(g) ⇄ TiCl₄(l)

equilibrium constant Kc = $\frac{1}{[Cl_2]^2}$

Given that,

We are given:

Equilibrium amount of titanium = 2.93 g

Equilibrium amount of titanium tetrachloride = 2.02 g

Equilibrium amount of chlorine gas = 1.67 g

We calculate the No of mole = mass / molar mass

mass of chlorine gas = 1.67 g

Molar mass of chlorine gas = 71 g/mol

mole of chlorine = 1.67 / 71

= 7.0L

Concentration of chlorine is = no of mole / volume

= 0.024 / 7

= 3.43 * 10⁻³M

equilibrium constant Kc = $\frac{1}{[Cl_2]^2}$

= $\frac{1}{[3.43 * 10^-^3]^2}$

= 8.5 * 10⁷

when 32.4 g of water vapor condenses, how much heat is given off? The heat of vaporization for water is 40.67 kj/mol

egoroff_w [7]

When a water vapor condenses, heat is being released from the process. This heat is called latent heat of vaporization since the phase change happens without any change in the temperature. This value is constant per mole of a substance as a function of pressure and temperature. For this problem, we are given the heat of vaporization at a certain T and P. We use this value to calculate the total heat released from the process. We calculate as follows:

Total heat released: 32.4 g ( 1 mol / 18.02 g ) (40.67 kJ / mol) = 73.12 kJ

Therefore, 73.12 kJ of heat is released from the condensation of 32.4 g of water vapor.

In the following reaction, how many grams of silver can be produced from 49.1 g copper?

notsponge [240]

166.4 g Ag grams of silver can be produced from 49.1 g of copper.

A mole is a very important unit of measurement that chemists use. A mole of something means you have 602,214,076,000,000,000,000,000 of that thing, like how having a dozen eggs means you have twelve eggs.

$1 mol Cu + 2 mol AgNO_3$ → $2 mol Ag + 1 mol Cu(NO3)2$
