Answer:

The oxidation reaction: Ni → Ni⁴⁺ + 4e.

The reduction reaction: 2Cl₂ + 4e → 4Cl⁻.

Explanation:

The mentioned reaction: <em>Ni + 2Cl₂ → NiCl₄.</em>

It is an oxidation-reduction reaction comes from two half reactions.

<em>The oxidation reaction:</em> in it Ni losses 4 electrons and is oxidized to Ni⁴⁺ according to the reaction:

<em>The reduction reaction: </em>every molecule of Cl₂ will gain 2 electrons and is reduced to 2Cl⁻ according to the reaction:

The summation of the two-half reactions will give the reaction:

Consider this reaction at equilibrium at a total pressure P1: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) â†’ 2SO3(g) Suppose the volume of this system is c

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The new equilibrium total pressure will be increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

Explanation:

From the information given :

The equation of the reaction can be represented as;

$2SO_{2(g)}+O_{2(g)} \to2SO_{3(g)}$

From above equation:

2 moles of sulphur dioxide reacts with 1 mole of oxygen (i.e 2 moles +1 mole =3 moles ) to give 2 moles of sulphur trioxide

So; suppose the volume of this system is compressed to one-half its initial volume and then equilibrium is reestablished.

So if this process takes place ; the equilibrium will definitely shift to the side with fewer moles , thus the equilibrium will shift to the right. As such; there is increase in pressure.

Let the total pressure at the initial equilibrium be $P_1$

and the total pressure at the final equilibrium be $P_2$

According to Boyle's Law; Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the volume, provided the temperature remains constant.

Thus;

P ∝ 1/V

P = K/V

PV = K

where K = constant

So;

PV = constant

Hence;

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

From the foregoing; since the volume is decreased to one- half to initial Volume; then ,

$V_2 = \dfrac{V_1}{\dfrac{3}{2}} ----- (1)$

also;

Thus ;

$P_1V_1 = P_2( \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}})$

$P_1V_1 = P_2 * 2 \dfrac{V_1}{3}$

$3 P_1 V_1 = 2 P_2 V_1$

Dividing both sides by $V_1$

$3P_1 = 2P_2$

$P_2 =P_1 \dfrac{3}{2} ----- (2)$

From ;

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

$P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}* \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}}$

$P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}* \dfrac{2 }{3}}*V_1$

$P_2 V_2 = P_1 V_1$

Thus; The new equilibrium total pressure will be increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

Classify each of the four compounds as a conjugated, isolated, or cumulated diene. Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma

Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Conjugated diene is the one that contains alternate double bonds in its structure. That means both the double bonds are separated by a single bond.

Cumulated diene is the one that contains two double bonds on a single atom. This means it has two double bonds continuously.

Isolated double-bonded compound has a single bond isolated by two to three single bonds.

Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma bond.

For example:

$-CH_2=CH-CH=CH2-$

It is a conjugated diene.

Compound B: Two alkenes are joined by a C H 2 group.

It is a cumulative diene.

Compound C: Two alkenes are joined by C H 2 C H 2.

Then it is an isolated alkene.

Compound D: A cyclohexene has a double bond between carbons 1 and 2. Carbon 3 is an sp 2 carbon that is bonded to another s p 2 carbon with an alkyl substituent.

Hence, compound D is a conjugated diene.

A family of four lives in a three-bedroom house and uses an average of 900 kWh of electricity per month. The family cools their

agasfer [191]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The percentage of the family’s total annual electricity that is used to run the two air conditioners for the three summer months = 19.4 %</h2>

Explanation:

Average electricity consumed per month = 900 kWh

The family cools their house for three months during the summer with two window-unit air conditioners

The power consumed by one window-unit air conditioners = 350 kWh

The power consumed by two window-unit air conditioners = 350(2) = 700 kWh

Power consumed for two air conditioners for the three summer months = 700 (3) = 2100 kWh

Total power consumed for 1 year = 900 (12) = 10800kWh

The percentage of the family’s total annual electricity that is used to run the two air conditioners for the three summer months = $\frac{2100}{10800}100$ = 19.4 %

What is the Bayer process explain it

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide) and was developed by Carl Josef Bayer. Bauxite, the most important ore of aluminium, contains only 30–60% aluminium oxide (Al2O3), the rest being a mixture of silica, various iron oxides, and titanium dioxide.
