<span>An atoms atomic mass is the sum of it's proton and neutrons found in the nucleus. An atom's atomic number is the number of protons an atom has. By subtracting an element's atomic number from the atomic mass you can calculate the number of neutrons. For oxygen it would be sixteen minus eight, so oxygen has eight neutrons.</span>

An equilibrium mixture of PCl5(g), PCl3(g), and Cl2(g) has partial pressures of 217.0 Torr, 13.2 Torr, and 13.2 Torr, respective

katovenus [111]

Answer:

The new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished:

$PCl_3,p_1'=6.798 Torr$

$Cl_2,p_2'=26.398 Torr$

$PCl_5,p_3'=223.402 Torr$

Explanation:

$PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)$

At equilibrium before adding chlorine gas:

Partial pressure of the $PCl_3=p_1=13.2 Torr$

Partial pressure of the $Cl_2=p_2=13.2 Torr$

Partial pressure of the $PCl_5=p_3=217.0 Torr$

The expression of an equilibrium constant is given by :

$K_p=\frac{p_1}{p_1\times p_2}$

$=\frac{217.0 Torr}{13.2 Torr\times 13.2 Torr}=1.245$

At equilibrium after adding chlorine gas:

Partial pressure of the $PCl_3=p_1'=13.2 Torr$

Partial pressure of the $Cl_2=p_2'=?$

Partial pressure of the $PCl_5=p_3'=217.0 Torr$

Total pressure of the system = P = 263.0 Torr

$P=p_1'+p_2'+p_3'$

$263.0Torr=13.2 Torr+p_2'+217.0 Torr$

$p_2'=32.8 Torr$

$PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)$

At initail

(13.2) Torr (32.8) Torr (13.2) Torr

At equilbriumm

(13.2-x) Torr (32.8-x) Torr (217.0+x) Torr

$K_p=\frac{p_3'}{p_1'\times p_2'}$

$1.245=\frac{(217.0+x)}{(13.2-x)(32.8-x)}$

Solving for x;

x = 6.402 Torr

The new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished:

$p_1'=(13.2-x) Torr=(13.2-6.402) Torr=6.798 Torr$

$p_2'=(32.8-x) Torr=(32.8-6.402) Torr=26.398 Torr$

$p_3'=(217.0+x) Torr=(217+6.402) Torr=223.402 Torr$

For single bonds between similar types of atoms, how does the strength of the bond relate to the sizes of the atoms? Explain.

uysha [10]

When comparing single bonds between atoms of comparable types, the stronger the bond is, the bigger the atom, the weaker it is.

The length of the X-H bond lengthens while the strength of the bond shortens with increasing halogen size (F-H strongest, I-H weakest). When comparing single bonds between atoms of similar sorts, the larger the atom, the weaker the bond. It can be explained by the fact that less energy is required to break the bond the bigger the atom's atomic size. The force of attraction from the nucleus to the outermost orbit will be less for iodine since it has a larger atom than the other elements in the group.
