Answer:

Answer is: Keq = [CO₂].

Explanation:

Balanced chemical reaction: CaCO3(s) ⇄ CaO(s) + CO₂(g).

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is a ratio of the concentration of the products  to the concentration of the reactants.

Pure liquids (shown in chemical reactions by appending (l) to the chemical formula) and solids (shown in chemical equations by appending (s) to the chemical formula) not go in to he equilibrium constant expression, only gas state (shown in chemical reactions by appending (g) to the chemical formula) reactants and products go in to  the equilibrium constant expression

Answer : The equilibrium constant expression for the given reaction is, K_c=[CO_2]

Explanation :

K_c is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

CaCO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

As we know that the concentrations of pure solids are constant that means they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

K_c=[CO_2]

Therefore, the equilibrium constant expression for the given reaction is, K_c=[CO_2]

Explain why is it a good idea for the eco-house to have both a wind turbine and solar panels?
mina [271]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wind is more of an efficient power source than solar. Compared to solar panels, wind turbines release less CO2 to the atmosphere, consume less energy, and produce more energy.

When can all the coefficients in a balanced equation represent volume ratios? when reactants and products are solids at stp when
Alexxx [7]

Answer: when reactants and products are gases at STP.


Justification:


1) STP stands for standard temperature (0°) and pressure (1 atm).


2) According to the kinetic molecular theory of the gases, and as per Avogadro's principle, equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules.



3) Since the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent number of moles, when reactants and products are gases at the same temperature and pressure, the mole ratios are the same that the volume ratios, and then the coefficients of the chemical equation represent the volume ratios.
