Answer:

<u>First choice: 0.042</u>

Explanation:

Given decomposition reaction:

1PCl₅ (g) ⇄ 1PCl₃ + 1Cl₂(g)

Equilibrium constant:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[PCl_3]^1[Cl_2]^1}{[PCl_5]^1}$

Stoichiometric coefficients and powers equal to 1 are not usually shown as they are understood, but I included them in order to shwow you how they intervene in the equilibrium expressions: each concentration is raised to a power equal to the respective stoichiometric coefficient in the equilibrium equation.

So, your calculations are:

$K_{eq}=\frac{(0.020M)(0.020M)}{0.0095M}=0.042M$

A student comes to the conclusion that solids are denser than liquids. Is this true? Explain.

A gas has a volume of 590 mL at temperature of -55.0 C. What volume will the gas occupy at 30.0 C show your work

DENIUS [597]

Data:
$V_{initial} = 590\:mL$
$T_{initial} = -55.0^0C$
converting to Kelvin
TK = TC + 273
TK = -55.0 + 273 → TK = 218.0 → $T_{initial} = 218.0\:K$
$V_{final} = ? (in\:milliliters)$
$T_{final} = 30.0^0C$
TK = TC + 273
TK = 30.0 + 273 → TK = 303.0 → $T_{final} = 303.0\:K$

By the first Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac, we have:
$\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }$

Solving:
$\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }$
$\frac{ 590 }{ 218.0 } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ 303.0 }$
Product of extremes equals product of means:
$218.0* V_{f} = 590*303.0$
$218.0 V_{f} = 178770$
$V_{f} = \frac{178770}{218.0}$
$\boxed{\boxed{V_{f} \approx 820.04\:mL}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

A baseline for an experimental investigation is provided by the

Rina8888 [55]

A baseline for experimental investigation is provided by an hypothesis. This is a must before conducting experiments. Also, it is the hypothesis that is being proved by doing the experiments. So, hypothesis is very important in research studies. Hope this answers the question.
