The compound PCl5 decomposes into Cl2 and PCl3. The equilibrium of PCl5(g) Cl2(g) + PCl3(g) has a Keq of 2.24 x 10-2 at 327°C. W

hat is the equilibrium concentration of Cl2 in a 1.00 liter vessel containing 0.235 mole of PCl5 and 0.174 mole of PCl3? Remember to use the correct number of significant digits. Cl2 = Are the products or reactants favored?

Take note of the reaction formula which is PCl5=Cl2+PCl3.
The Keq = [Cl2] * [PCl3] / [PCl5]=2.24*10^-2.
For the reason that the volume is 1 liter, the concentration of Cl2 will be computed through: <span>(2.24 * 10^-2) * 0.235 / 0.174 </span> = 0.0303 mol/L is the answer.

The equation you’re dealing with is this:

PCl5(g)⇌PCl3(g)+Cl2(g)

The equation is already balanced so you can now proceed to the next step.

The given equilibrium constant at 327°C is Keq = 2.24 x 10^-2.

Since <span><span>K<span><span>eq</span><1</span></span>, this means that at equilibrium, the reaction vessel theoretically contains more reactant than the products. Given the value of Keq, we can expect a very low concentration of chlorine gas at equilibrium.</span>

Set up an ICE table to help you find the equilibrium concentration of the three species.

    PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

I   0.235         0.174       0

C (−x)            (+x)          (+x)

E 0.235 −      0.174 +     x

 

Based on the law,

Keq= (PCl3) x (Cl2)/PCl5

Substitute:

2.24x10^−2 =[(0.174+x)(x)]/( 0.235-x)

Compute for x.

X=0.0239

T<span>herefore, the reaction vessel will contain Cl2=0.0239 M at equilibrium.</span>

Regarding the second question, reactants are favored the equilibrium concentration of chlorine gas is significantly lower than that of phosphorus pentachloride.

Why are we not able to see immediate after we enter a dark hall from a lighter place.
Kipish [7]
Technically this is a Biology question;

The 'amount' we can see depends on how much light can get through our pupil to hit our retina.
When there is a lot of light the pupil is small; it doesn't need to be big to let a lot of light in.
When we move to a dark space there is much less light, so the pupil 'dilates' to let enough light so we can see properly.
The period in which one cant see is simply when the pupil hasn't had time to change shape yet so doesn't let in enough light.<span />

5. An electrical power plant generates electricity with a current of 50 A and a potential difference of 20 000 V. In order to mi
lakkis [162]

Answer: Current = 2 A

Explanation:

Given that an electrical power plant generates electricity with a

current I = 50 A

Potential difference V = 20 000 V

The resistance R will be achieved by Ohms law formula which state that

V = IR

But the power generated will be the product of potential difference and the current

Power P = IV

P = 50 × 20000

P = 1, 000000 W

When the transformer steps up the potential difference to 500 000 V before it is transmitted

Power is always constant.

Using the formula for power again with

V = 500000

1000000 = 500000× I

Make I the subject of formula

Current I = 1000000/500000

Current I = 2 A

Section of two thermometers are shown. The thermometer on the left is labeled A and the thermometer on the right is labeled B. T
jolli1 [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (b) Thermometer B, because it measures temperature more accurately than A.

Explanation :

Accuracy : It is defined as the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value.

For Example: If the mass of a substance is 50 kg and one person weighed 48 kg and another person weighed 55 kg. Then, the weight measured by first person is more accurate.

Precision : It is defined as the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.

For Example: If you weigh a given substance five times and you get 1.8 kg each time. Then the measurement is said to be precise.

Level of precision is determined by the maximum number of decimal places.

As per question, the thermometer B has markings 40°, 45° and 50° at equal intervals and there are four small markings equally spaced in between the numbers and thermometer B has markings 40°, 45° and 50° at equal intervals but there is no small markings equally spaced in between the numbers. That means, thermometer B is measures temperature more accurately than thermometer A.

Hence, correct option is, (b) Thermometer B, because it measures temperature more accurately than A.

Which term is defined by the force that moving, charged particles exert on one another?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Electromagnetic force

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravity: it is the force that is exerted between any objects with mass. It is the weakest of all forces, so it is only relevant at planetary scales. It is always attractive, and it has an infinite range.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between charged objects and between magnets (it is responsible for electric fields and magnetic fields). It is the 2nd strongest force, and it is the force that holds atoms in a molecule together. It can be attractive or repulsive, and it has an infinite range.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the strongest of all forces. It is responsible for holding the nucleons together inside the nucleus, and it is attractive. It has a very limited range (10^{-15}m), so it is relevant only at very small scales

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for radioactive decays and neutrino interactions. It also has a very short range (10^{-18} m

Looking at all these definitions, we see that the term that defines the force that acts between charged particles is the electromagnetic force.
