Answer:

p_{N_2}^{eq}=p_{O_2}^{eq}}=18.27atm

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, the law of mass action turns out:

Kp=\frac{p_{N_2}^{eq}p_{O_2}^{eq}}{(p_{NO}^{eq})^2}

Whereas the equilibrium pressures, based on the stoichiometry and the change x, changes to:

Kp=\frac{(x)(x)}{(37.30-2x)^2}=2400

Solving for x via quadratic equation, one obtains:

x_1=18.27atm\\x_2=18.84atm

In such a way, the feasible solution is 18.27 atm since the other pressure lead to a negative pressure of NO at the equilibrium, therefore, the equilibrium pressures of nitrogen and oxygen that are equal, result in:

p_{N_2}^{eq}=p_{O_2}^{eq}}=x_1=18.27atm

Best regards.

The reaction is           2 NO (g) <----> N2(g) + O2

partial pressures

Initial                                 37.30          0          0

Change                            -2p                +p        +p

Equilibrium                          37.30-p        p          p

Kp = pN2 X pO2 / (pNO)^2

2400 = p^2 /  (37.30-p)^2

3339096 - 179040p + 2400p^2 = p^2

2399p^2 + 3339096  -179040 p = 0

On solving

p = 36.55atm

Thus partial pressure of N2 and O2 = 36. 55 atm

A factory discharges clean, warm water into a nearby stream. Fish keep dying in this part of stream. Explain why.
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

the fish can't survive in that warm water

Explanation:

when the factory puts that warm water into the stream where the fish live they changed their environment. by adding unknown chemicals and changing the temp of the water the fish start to die.

The fish aren't used to living in that warm water, and if they can't adapt fast enough they will die, also the unknown chemicals that could be in the water will act as a poison for them making that stream unable to support any life.

Does seeing a gas produced always mean a chemical reaction is occurring? Explain.
chubhunter [2.5K]
Seeing signs of a chemical reaction does not always mean that a reaction is happening. For example, a gas (water vapor) is given off when water boils. ... You can tell that it is a physical change because water vapor can condense to form liquid water. In a chemical change, a new substance must be produced.

f the Ksp for HgBr2 is 2.8×10−14, and the mercury ion concentration in solution is 0.085 M, what does the bromide concentration
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

0.057 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Solubility product constant (Ksp) for HgBr₂: 2.8 × 10⁻⁴

Concentration of mercury (II) ion: 0.085 M

Step 2: Write the reaction for the solution of HgBr₂

HgBr₂(s) ⇄ Hg²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻

Step 3: Calculate the bromide concentration needed for a precipitate to occur

The Ksp is:

Ksp = 2.8 × 10⁻⁴ = [Hg²⁺] × [Br⁻]²

[Br⁻] = √(2.8 × 10⁻⁴/0.085) = 0.057 M
