In the formula for water (H2O) what does the subscript 2 indicate?

The 2 indicates the amount of hydrogen there is. In this case there are two atoms of hydrogen. The subscript will correspond to the “letter” (element symbol) right before it.

You wish to make 250. mL of 0.20 M KCl from a stock solution of 1.5 M KCl and DI water.
Nitella [24]

The question requires us to use the dilution formula M_iV_i=M_fV_f, where M_i and V_i are the stock concentration and volume respectively, then M_f and V_f are the dilute concentration and volume respectively.

a. C_s_t_o_c_k= 1.5 M KCI, C_d_i_l_u_t_e=0.20M KCl, V_d_i_l_u_t_e=250ml KCl

b.M_iV_i=M_fV_f\\\implies V_i= \frac{M_fV_f}{M_i} = \frac{0.20M \times 250ml}{1.5M} = 33.3\ ml

To prepare the solution 33.3ml of 1.5M KCl is diluted to a total final volume of 250ml.

A speed time graph shows that a car moves at 20 m/s for 15s. The car's speed steadily decreases until it comes to a stop at 40s.
ladessa [460]
0s to 15s: constant speed/zero acceleration
15s to 40s: constant gradient, therefore constant deceleration

In atmospheric chemistry, the following chemical reaction converts SO2, the predominant oxide of sulfur that comes from combusti
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information;

The chemical reaction can be well presented as follows:

\mathtt{SO_{2(g)} + \dfrac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} }  ⇄ \mathtt{3SO_{2(l)}}

Now, K is known to be the equilibrium constant and it can be represented in terms of each constituent activity:

i.e

K = \dfrac{a_{so_3}}{a_{so_2} a_{o_2}^{\frac{1}{2}}}

However, since we are dealing with liquids solutions;

K = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{Pso_2}{P^0}\Big ( \dfrac{Po_2}{P^0} \Big)^{1/2}}   since the activity of a_{so_3} is equivalent to 1

Hence, under standard conditions(i.e at a pressure of 1 bar)

K = \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}

(b)

From the CRC Handbook, we are meant to determine the value of the Gibb free energy by applying the formula:

\Delta _{rxn} G^o = \sum \Delta_f \ G^o (products) - \sum \Delta_fG^o (reactants) \\ \\ = (1) (-368 \ kJ/mol) - (\dfrac{1}{2}) (0) - ((1) (-300.13 \ kJ/mol)) \\ \\ = -368 \ kJ/mol + 300.13 \ kJ/mol \\ \\  \simeq -68 \ kJ/mol

Thus, for this reaction; the Gibbs frree energy = -68 kJ/mol

(c)

Le's recall that:

At equilibrium, the instantaneous free energy is usually zero &

Q(reaction quotient) is equivalent to K(equilibrium constant)

So;

\mathtt{\Delta _{rxn} G = \Delta _{rxn} G^o + RT In Q}

\mathtt{0- \Delta _{rxn} G^o = RTIn K } \\ \\ \mathtt{ \Delta _{rxn} G^o = -RTIn K }  \\ \\  K = e^{\dfrac{\Delta_{rxn} G^o}{RT}} \\ \\  K = e^{^{\dfrac{67900 \ J/mol}{8.314 \ J/mol \times 298 \ K}} }

K =7.98390356\times 10^{11} \\ \\  \mathbf{K = 7.98 \times 10^{11}}

(d)

The direction by which the reaction will proceed can be determined if we can know the value of Q(reaction quotient).

This is because;

If  Q < K, then the reaction will proceed in the right direction towards the products.

However, if Q > K , then the reaction goes to the left direction. i.e to the reactants.

So;

Q= \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}

Since we are dealing with liquids;

Q= \dfrac{1}{1 \times 1^{1/2}}

Q = 1

Since Q < K; Then, the reaction proceeds in the right direction.

Hence, SO2 as well O2 will combine to yield SO3, then condensation will take place to form liquid.
