In the uncatalyzed reaction N2O4 (g) ⇌ 2 NO2 (g) the pressure of the gases at equilibrium are PN2O4 = 0.377 atm and PNO2 = 1.56

Answer:

The pressures will remain at the same value.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that alter the rate of a chemical reaction. It either speeds up the or slows down the rate of a chemical reaction.

While a catalyst affects the rate, it is noteworthy that it has no effect on the equilibrium position of the chemical reaction. A catalyst works by creating an alternative pathway for the reaction to proceed. Most times, it decreases the activation energy needed to kickstart the chemical reaction.

Hence, we know that it has no effect on the equilibrium position. Factors affecting equilibrium position includes, temperature and concentration of reactants and products( pressure in terms of gases).

The reactants and the products here are gaseous, and as such pressure affects the equilibrium position. Now, we have established that the equilibrium position is unaffected. And as such the pressure affecting it does not change.

Thus, we have established that the pressure of the products and reactants are unaffected and as such they remain at their value unaffected.

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of N (7 electrons): 1s² 2s² 2p³.

The orbital 1s is filled with two electrons and their spinning direction is opposite and also electrons of 2s.

3p contains (3 electrons) should fill the 3 orbitals firstly. Every orbital contains 1 electron and be in the same spin direction.

So, the right choice is c.

A is wrong because 2 electrons of 3p are paired in the first orbital before filling every orbital.

B is wrong because the 2 electrons of 1s and 2s are in the same direction and also 2 electrons of 3p are paired in the first orbital before filling every orbital.

D is also wrong the 2 electrons of 1s and 2s are in the same direction and the electron in the second orbital of 3p are in opposite direction of the other 2 electrons.

Calcium forms ions with a charge of +2. Iodine forms ions with a charge of -1. Which of the following would represent an ionic c
astra-53 [7]

 The   formula that would represent an ionic  compound  that is composed of calcium and iodide ions  is   CaI2

 Explanation

Ionic compound  CaI₂ is formed  when Calcium form cation ( <em>a positively charged ion</em>) by losing 2 electrons while two iodine atoms form  anion ( <em>a negatively charged ion</em>)  by  gaining one electron each.

When writing down   formula of ionic compound, the formula  of cation  is written  first followed by anion  formula. therefore  Ca is written  first  followed by I.

The numeric subscript 2 after I(iodine) indicate that 2 atoms of iodine are involved  in bonding.
