Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium expression is denoted by Keq.

Keq is  the equilibrium constant that is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power its stoichiometric coefficients.

Example -

aA + bB = cC + dD

So, Keq = conc of product/ conc of reactant

Keq = \frac{[C]^c [D]^d}{[A]^a [B]^b}

So from the equation, H₂CO₃+H₂O = H₃O+HCO₃⁻¹

Keq = \frac{[H3O^+]^1 [HCO3^-]^1}{[H2CO3]^1 [H2O]^1}

The concentration of pure solid and liquid is considered as 1. Therefore, concentration of H2O is 1.

Thus,

Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

Therefore, Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

What causes the electrons to move and form static electricty?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. ... When two materials are in contact, electrons may move from one material to the other, which leaves an excess of positive charge on one material, and an equal negative charge on the other.

Which profile best describes the reaction C(s) + 2H2(g) → CH4(g),<br> AH = -74.9 kJ?
katrin [286]

Answer:

Option B. A

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

C(s) + 2H₂ (g) —> CH₄ (g). ΔH = –74.9 kJ

From the reaction above, we can see that the enthalpy change (ΔH) is negative (i.e –74.9 KJ) which implies that the heat content of the reactants is greater than the heat content of the products. Thus, the reaction is exothermic reaction.

For an exothermic reaction, the energy profile diagram is drawn in such a way that the heat content of reactants is higher than the heat content of products because the enthalpy change

(ΔH) is always negative.

Thus, diagram A (i.e option B) gives the correct answer to the question.

The impact of fossil fuel combustion on the global carbon cycle
olga_2 [115]
When humans burn fossil fuels, the stored carbon is released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. The carbon is then free to cycle through the Earth and can upset the natural balance of the carbon available, changing the way that processes occur on Earth.
