A key step in the extraction of iron from its ore is feo(s) + co(g) fe(s) + co2(g) kp = 0.403 at 1000°c. this step occurs in the

700°c to 1200°c zone within a blast furnace. what are the equilibrium partial pressures of co(g) and co2(g) when 1.58 atm co(g) and excess feo(s) react in a sealed container at 1000°c?

The complete reaction of the problem, for better illustration, is

FeO(s) + CO(g) <--> Fe(s) + CO2(g)

The double-tailed arrow signifies that the reaction is in a dynamic chemical equilibrium. When the system is in equilibrium, the forward and the backward reaction rates have an equal ratio of Kp = 0.403 at 1000°C. The formula for Kp is

Kp = [partial pressure of products]/[partial pressure of reactants]

So, first, let's find the partial pressure of the compounds in the reaction.

                      FeO(s) + CO(g) <--> Fe(s) + CO2(g)
Initial                 x            1.58            0           0
Change           -1.58        -1.58       +1.58     +1.58
------------------------------------------------------------------
Equilbrium      x-1.58          0             1.58       1.58

Kp = [(1.58)(1.58)]/[(x-1.58)] = 0.403
x = 7.77 atm (this is the amount of excess FeO)

Therefore, the partial pressure of CO2 at equilibrium is 1.58 atm. There is no more CO because it has been consumed due to excess FeO.

Answer:Ionic compounds form when positive and negative ions share electrons and form an ionic bond. ... The positive ion, called a cation, is listed first in an ionic compound formula, followed by the negative ion, called an anion. A balanced formula has a neutral electrical charge or net charge of zero.

Explanation:Simple ions:  

Perchlorate ClO4- IO3-

Chlorate ClO3- BrO3-

Chlorite ClO2-

What is true about the position of any metal in the periodic table
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The metals are on the bottom left in the periodic table, and the nonmetals are at the top right. The semimetals lie along a diagonal line separating the metals and nonmetals. The elements are arranged in a periodic table, which is probably the single most important learning aid in chemistry.

Describe the three main types of plate boundary interactions:
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

In the explanation

Explanation:

Divergent: When two plates are diverging from each other, meaning that the two plates are moving away from each other. Events that may occur include ridges or rifts.

Convergent: When two plates are moving towards each other.

If a continental plate and an oceanic plate are converging, the oceanic plate would slide underneath the continental plate since it is thinner. This would result in subduction, which means that part of the oceanic plate would hang underneath the continental plate, where magma can melt the hanging part.

If two continental plates are converging, the crash would result in mountains or volcanic activity. Magma could rise and rush from the crack. There would be a bump in these tectonic plates.

Transform: When two plates are sliding past each other. Earthquakes can occur when the plates are sliding. When an oceanic plate is involved, the movement of the plates could cause a tsunami as well. The water above the transform fault could rise, and grow bigger and bigger. The 2011 Japan Tsunami is a good example of this.

Hope this helps!
