What is the correct balanced equation for the following equilibrium constant expression?

1 answer:

8 0

The correct answer is 3) 2CO2(g) ⇄ 2CO(g) + O2(g)

this is the correct one because it is a decomposition reaction and all the number of atoms is equal on both sides.

there are 2 C atoms on both sides.

and 4 O atoms on both sides.

and 1) the atoms numbers are equal on both sides but not correct as it not a

correct number as it has 1/2 O2.

and 2) CO2(g) ⇆ CO(g) + O2

the number of O atoms is not equal on both sides of the equation.

we have 2 O atoms on the left side and 3 O atoms on the right side.

so, this not a balanced equation.

4) also not correct 2CO(g) + O2 ⇆ 2CO2

as it is not a decomposition reaction and the 2CO & O2 are as reactants not products.

so the correct answer is 3) 2CO2(g) ⇆ 2CO(g) + O2(g)

Hydrogen iodide decomposes slowly to H2 and I2 at 600 K. The reaction is second order in HI, and the rate constant is 9.7×10−6M−

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer : The molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

$k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)$

where,

k = rate constant = $9.7\times 10^{-6}M^{-1}s^{-1}$

t = time taken = 5.00 days

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

$[A]_o$ = Initial concentration = 0.110 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$9.7\times 10^{-6}=\frac{1}{5.00}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.110)}\right)$

$[A]=0.109M$

Hence, the molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M

how many moles of sodium hydroxide would have to be added to 250 ml of a 0.403 m acetic acid solution, in order to prepare a buf

jonny [76]

The volume of the buffer solution having a ph value is calculated by henderson's hasselbalch equation.

Buffer solution is water based solution which consists of a mixture containing a weak acid and a conjugate base of the weak acid. or a weak base and conjugate acid of a weak base.it is a mixture of weak acid and a base. The pH of the buffer solution is determined by the expression of the henderson hasselbalch equation.

pH=pKa + log [salt]/[acid]

Where, pKa =dissociation constant , A- = concentration of the conjugate base, [HA]= concentration of the acid. Here, a buffer solution contains 0.403m acetic acid and 250 ml is added in order to prepare a buffer with a ph of 4.750. Putting all the values in the henderson hasselbalch equation we find the pH of the buffer solution.
