Answer:

The equilibrium shifts to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

2SO₂ + O₂ ⇄ 2SO₃

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of SO₃ increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.

total kinetic energy of all the atoms that make up a sample of matter, would that be heat or mechanical????

Yuki888 [10]

Generally speaking mechanical energy is energy which physically moves (the object), while the thermal energy is energy from the movement of atoms.
Basically temperature is a measurement of atomic movement (doesn't move object as a whole).
Hence heat.

2 upper N upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow 2 upper N upper o (g) plus upper O subscript 2 (g). Second: 2 upper N upper O (g)

Ipatiy [6.2K]

The equation for the overall reaction obtained by adding these equations is; 2NO₂(g) ⇒ N₂O₄(g)

<h3>How to simplify chemical equations?</h3>

We are given equations;

2NO₂(g) ----> 2NO(g) + O₂(g) ---(1)

2NO(g) -----> N₂(g) + O₂(g) -----(2)

N₂(g) + 2O₂(g) ----> N₂O₄(g) -----(3)

Add eq 1 and eq 2 to get;

2NO₂(g) + 2NO(g) ⇒ 2NO(g) + O₂(g) + N₂(g) + O₂(g)

2NO will cancel out to get;

2NO₂(g) ⇒ N₂(g) + 2O₂(g) -----(4)

Add eq 3 to eq 4 to get;

N₂(g) + 2O₂(g) + 2NO₂(g) ⇒ N₂O₄(g) + N₂(g) + 2O₂(g)

This will reduce to;

2NO₂(g) ⇒ N₂O₄(g)

The correct question is;

Consider the chemical equations shown here.

2NO₂(g) ----> 2NO(g) + O₂(g)

2NO(g) -----> N₂(g) + O₂(g)

N₂(g) + 2O(g) ----> N₂O₄(g)

What is the equation for the overall reaction obtained by adding these equations?

Standard Thermodynamic Quantities for Selected Substances at 25 ∘C Reactant or product ΔHf∘(kJ/mol) Al(s) 0.0 MnO2(s) −520.0 Al2

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

-1815.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Starting with standard enthalpies of formation you can calculate the standard enthalpy for the reaction doing this simple calculation:

∑ n *ΔH formation (products) - ∑ n *ΔH formation (reagents)

This is possible because enthalpy is state function meaning it only deppends on the initial and final state of the system (That's why is also possible to "mix" reactions with Hess Law to determine the enthalpy of a new reaction). Also the enthalpy of formation is the heat required to form the compound from pure elements, then products are just atoms of reagents organized in a different form.

In this case:

ΔH rxn = [(2 * -1675.7) - (3 * -520.0)] kJ/mol = -1815.4 kJ/mol
