Answer:
B
Explanation:
B. the total kinetic and potential energies of its particles
<u> electrical energy to chemical energy</u>
Answer:
K = Ka/Kb
Explanation:
P(s) + (3/2) Cl₂(g) <-------> PCl₃(g) K = ?
P(s) + (5/2) Cl₂(g) <--------> PCl₅(g) Ka
PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) <---------> PCl₅(g) Kb
K = [PCl₃]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)
Ka = [PCl₅]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
Kb = [PCl₅]/ ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
Since [PCl₅] = [PCl₅]
From the Ka equation,
[PCl₅] = Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
From the Kb equation
[PCl₅] = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
Equating them
Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾) = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
(Ka/Kb) = ([PCl₃] [Cl₂]) / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
(Ka/Kb) = [PCl₃] / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)
Comparing this with the equation for the overall equilibrium constant
K = Ka/Kb
a. 381.27 m/s
b. the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triiodide
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
T = 100 + 273 = 373 K
Required
a. the gas speedi
b. The rate of effusion comparison
Solution
a.
Average velocities of gases can be expressed as root-mean-square averages. (V rms)

R = gas constant, T = temperature, Mm = molar mass of the gas particles
From the question
R = 8,314 J / mol K
T = temperature
Mm = molar mass, kg / mol
Molar mass of Sulfur dioxide = 64 g/mol = 0.064 kg/mol

b. the effusion rates of two gases = the square root of the inverse of their molar masses:

M₁ = molar mass sulfur dioxide = 64
M₂ = molar mass nitrogen triodide = 395

the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triodide
