The equilibrium system Co(H2O)62+ + 4Cl– ⇌ CoCl42– + 6H2O is endothermic as written, meaning heat is a reactant for the forward

reaction and a product for the reverse reaction. Based on that information and your findings from this experiment, predict what you would expect to observe in the experiment you described above when you tested the effects of temperature on an equilibrium position.

Answer:

  1. Increasing the temperature: shifts the equilibrium to the products side (towards the right direction).
  2. Decreasing the temperature: shifts the equilibrium to the reactants (towards the left direction).

Explanation:

Le Châtelier's principle states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.

For the mentioned endothermic reaction can be represented as:

Co(H₂O)₆²⁺ + 4Cl⁻ + heat ⇌ CoCl₄²⁻ + 6H₂O.

In endothermic reactions: heat is a reactant for the forward reaction and a product for the reverse reaction.

So the effect of temperature on the equilibrium position is:

  • Increasing the temperature:

Increasing the temperature leads to increasing the concentration of the reactants, so the equilibrium will be shifted to the products side (towards the right direction) to suppress the effect of increasing T.

  • Decreasing the temperature:

Decreasing the temperature leads to decreasing the concentration of the reactants, so the equilibrium will be shifted to the reactants (towards the left direction) to suppress the effect of decreasing T.

What are diatomic molecules and are they compounds? PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Diatomic molecules consist of two atoms that are chemically bonded. The two atoms can be the same or different chemical elements. As for whether or not they are compounds, there is not technically an answer. This is because all compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds. For example diatomic molecules that comprise the chemical compounds nitric acid, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen chloride are made up of two different elements.  As you can see, most diatomic molecules are not made up of the same kind of elements and not every diatomic molecule comprises a chemical compound.

hope this helps :)

If a substance cannot be broken down chemically into a simpler substance what is it
Vikentia [17]

Answer: An Element

Explanation:

An element is a substance that cannot be split into smaller substance. It is made up of one kind of atom and can exist either as molecules  (e.g nitogen) or an atom (e.g argon).

What will be the volume occupied by 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerting 1.75 atm of pressure at 475K?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

THE VOLUME OF THE NITROGEN GAS AT 2.5  MOLES , 1.75 ATM AND 475 K IS 55.64 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = 1.75 atm

n = 2.5 moles

T = 475 K

R = 0.082 L atm/mol K

V = unknown

Substituting the variables into the equation we have:

V = nRT / P

V = 2.5 * 0.082 * 475 / 1.75

V = 97.375 / 1.75

V = 55.64 L

The volume of the 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerted by 1.75 atm at 475 K is 55.64 L
