Answer:

The balanced equation is given below:

SO4^2−(aq)+ Sn^2+(aq) + 4H^+(aq) → H2SO3(aq)+ Sn^4+(aq) + H2O(l)

The coefficients of the reactants are: 1, 1, 4

The coefficients of the products are: 1, 1, 1

Explanation:

Step 1:

The equation for the reaction. This is given below:

SO4^2−(aq)+ Sn^2+(aq) + –––→ H2SO3(aq)+ Sn^4+(aq) + –––

Step 2:

Inclusion of H+ and H2O into the equation. This is illustrated below:

SO4^2−(aq)+ Sn^2+(aq) + H^+(aq) → H2SO3(aq)+ Sn^4+(aq) + H2O(l)

Step 3:

Balancing the equation.

SO4^2−(aq)+ Sn^2+(aq) + H^+(aq) → H2SO3(aq)+ Sn^4+(aq) + H2O(l)

The above equation can be balanced as follow:

There are total 4 atoms of H on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of H^+ as shown below:

SO4^2−(aq)+ Sn^2+(aq) + 4H^+(aq) → H2SO3(aq)+ Sn^4+(aq) + H2O(l)

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients of the reactants are: 1, 1, 4

The coefficients of the products are: 1, 1, 1

I’m I’m pretty sure this is a combustion reaction, so that means the products would be CO2 + H2O.

Because uranium-235 isn't found naturally in large quantities, engineers increase its concentration in nuclear fuel so that a ch

Vitek1552 [10]

Nuclear Fusion.

Having low atomic nuclei is the reason why uranium-235 is not commonly found in large nuclear reactions.

So, scientist increases its concentration by fusing the lower atomic nuclei with high atomic nuclei in order to produce a heavier nucleus which will increase the release of energy.

explain in terms of collision theory, how and why a reactions's rate changes as the reaction progresses

Reptile [31]

The rate of a chemical reaction is the speed with which the reactants are converted to products while the collision theory is used to explain why chemical reactions occur at different rates. It states that for a reaction to proceed, the reactants particles must collide and the more successful collisions there are per unit of time, the faster the reaction will be. As the reaction progresses, the products builds up in the system and the chance that the reactants will collide amongst themselves reduces as the product molecules begin to build up while the molecules of the reactants are deprived. therefore the rate of reaction changes.

The N2O4−NO2 reversible reaction is found to have the following equilibrium partial pressures at 100∘C. Calculate Kp for the rea

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

$K_{p}$ for the reaction is 18.05

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure ( $K_{p}$ ) for this reaction can be written as-

$K_{p}=\frac{P_{NO_{2}}^{2}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}$

where $P_{NO_{2}}$ and $P_{N_{2}O_{4}}$ are equilibrium partial pressure of $NO_{2}$ and $N_{2}O_{4}$ respectively

Hence $K_{p}=\frac{(0.095)^{2}}{(0.0005)}$ = 18.05

So, $K_{p}$ for the reaction is 18.05
