For a gaseous reaction, standard conditions are 298 K and a partial pressure of 1 atm for all species. For the reaction 2 NO ( g
enyata [817]

Answer:

ΔG = -61.5 kJ/mol (<u>Spontaneous process</u>)

Explanation:

2 NO (g)  +  O₂  (g)   ⇄  2NO₂ (g)

Let's apply the thermodynamic formula to calculate the ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + R .T . lnQ

We don't know if the gases are at equilibrium, that's why we apply Q (reaction quotient)

ΔG = - 69 kJ/mol + 8.31x10⁻³ kJ/K.mol . 298K . ln Q

How can we know Q? By the partial pressures (Qp)

P NO = 0.450atm

PO₂ = 0.1 atm

PNO₂ = 0.650 atm

Qp = [NO₂]² / [NO]² . [O₂]

Qp = 0.650² / 0.450² . 0.1 = 20.86

ΔG = - 69 kJ/mol + 8.31x10⁻³ kJ/K.mol . 298K . ln 20.86

ΔG = -61.5 kJ/mol (<u>Spontaneous process</u>)

An element's atomic number is 112. How many electrons would an atom of this element have?
PIT_PIT [208]

Without any ionization, the element (Cn) would have 112 electrons because the atomic number of an element is the number of protons the element has and a neutral element has the same number of electrons as it does protons.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Option E, Half life = 2.96\times 10^3\ s

Explanation:

For a first order reaction, rate constant and half-life is related as:

            t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

Where,

t_{1/2} = Half life

k = Rate constant

Rate constant given = 2.34\times 10^{-4}\ s^{-1}

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{2.34 \times 10^{-4}}=2.96\times 10^3\ s

So, the correct option is option E.

A sample of O2 gas occupies a volume of 571 mL at 26 ºC. If pressure remains constant, what would be the new volume if the tempe
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: The new volume at different given temperatures are as follows.

(a) 109.81 mL

(b) 768.65 mL

(c) 18052.38 mL

Explanation:

Given: V_{1} = 571 mL,       T_{1} = 26^{o}C

(a) T_{2} = 5^{o}C

The new volume is calculated as follows.

\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{571 mL}{26^{o}C} = \frac{V_{2}}{5^{o}C}\\V_{2} = 109.81 mL

(b) T_{2} = 95^{o}F

Convert degree Fahrenheit into degree Cesius as follows.

(1^{o}F - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} = ^{o}C\\(95^{o}F - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} = 35^{o}C

The new volume is calculated as follows.

\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{571 mL}{26^{o}C} = \frac{V_{2}}{35^{o}C}\\V_{2} = 768.65 mL

(c) T_{2} = 1095 K = (1095 - 273)^{o}C = 822^{o}C

The new volume is calculated as follows.

\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{571 mL}{26^{o}C} = \frac{V_{2}}{822^{o}C}\\V_{2} = 18052.38 mL

jasenka [17]

Answer:

Argon is an element on the periodic table. It is a member of the noble gasses, meaning that it is a monoatomic pure gas. In other words, argon gas particles are simply pure single atoms of argon. ... Finally, water is a polyatomic molecule H2O composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
