Phosphine, PH₃, is a colorless, toxic gas that is used in the production of semiconductors as well as in the farming industry. W

hen heated, phosphine decomposes into phosphorus and hydrogen gases.
4 PH₃(g) ⟶ P₄(g) + 6 H₂(g)

This decomposition is first order with respect to phosphine, and has a half‑life of 35.0 s at 953 K. Calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas that is present after 70.5 s if a 2.20 L vessel containing 2.29 atm of phosphine gas is heated to 953 K.

Answer:

0.57 atm

Explanation:

Anytime a reaction is of the first order, the integrated law states that

ln[A]t/[A]₀ = - kt

where [A]t is the concentration of A ( phosphine in this question ) after a time, t

          [A]₀ is the initial concentration of A (phosphine also)

          k is a constant,

          t is the time

We also know that for a first order reaction,

          half life is t1/2 =0.693/k, then, k= 0.693/ t 1/2

where t 1/2 is the half-life.

This equation is derived for a situation when A]t/= 1/2 x [A]₀ which occurs at the half-life.

Thus, finding k from the half life time, and then solving it for a time t = 70.5 s

k = 0.693 /  35.0 s = 0.0198 s⁻¹

ln [ PH₃ ]t / [ PH₃]₀ = - kt

from ideal gas law we know that pV = nRT, so the volumes  will cancel:

ln (pPH₃ )t / p(PH₃)₀ = - kt

taking inverse log to both sides of the equation:

(pPH₃ )t / p(PH₃)₀  = - kt

then

(pPH₃ )t  = 2.29 atm x e^(- 0.0198 s⁻¹ x 70.5 s ) = 0.57 atm

Draw the molecule by placing atoms on the grid and connecting them with bonds. Include all lone pairs of electrons. Show the for
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, let's see both molecules per separate:

In the case of SeO₂ the central atom would be the Se. The Se has oxidation states of 2+, and 4+. In this molecule it's working with the 4+, while oxygen is working with the 2- state. Now, how do we know that Se is working with that state?, simply, let's do an equation for it. We know that this molecule has a formal charge of 0, so:

Se = x

O = -2

x + (-2)*2 = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4.

Therefore, Selenium is working with +4 state, the only way to bond this molecule is with a covalent bond, and in the case of the oxygen will be with double bond. See picture below.

In the case of CO₂ happens something similar. Carbon is working with +4 state, so in order to stabilize the charges, it has to be bonded with double bonds with both oxygens. The picture below shows.

10) How many grams are there in 1.00 x 10^24 molecules of BC13?
lana66690 [7]

194.5 g of BCl₃ is present in 1 × 10²⁴ molecules of BCl₃.

Explanation:

In order to convert the given number of molecules of BCl₃ to grams, first we have to convert the molecules to moles.

It is known that 1 moles of any element has 6.022×10²³ molecules.

Then 1 molecule will have \frac{1}{6.022*10^{23} } moles.

So 1*10^{24} molecules = \frac{1*10^{24} }{6.022*10^{23} } =1.66 moles

Thus, 1.66 moles are included in BCl₃.

Then in order to convert it from moles to grams, we have to multiply it with the molecular mass of the compound.

As it is known as 1 mole contains molecular mass of the compound.

As the molecular mass of BCl₃ will be

Molecular mass of BCl_{3}= Mass of Boron + (3*Mass of chlorine)

Mass of boron is 10.811 g and the mass of chlorine is 35.453 g.

Molar mass of BCl₃ = 10.811+(3×35.453)=117.17 g.

grams of BCl_{3}=Molar mass of BCl_{3}*Number of moles

grams of BCl_{3}=117.17*1.66=194.5 g

So, 194.5 g of BCl₃ is present in 1 × 10²⁴ molecules of BCl₃.
