The correct answer is option B. It equals the rate of formation of SO₃.

At equilibrium the rate of the forward reaction is always equal to the rate of the backward reaction. The concentration of the reactants and products do not change with time at equilibrium.

The rate of decomposition of SO₃ at equilibrium is equal to the rate of formation of SO₃. At equilibrium the concentration of SO₃ will remain constant.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

1.18 moles of gas

Explanation:

3.00 moles of gas are pumped into a 1.00L rigid container with a pressure of 1.98 atm. The gas is released from the container until the pressure is 0.78 atm, how many moles of gas remain in the container?​

for the sealed rigid container, the pressure is directly proportional to the amount of gas

3.00moles/1.98  atm =  ? moles/0.78 atm

? = 3.00 X 0.78/1.98  =1.18 moles of gas

Now you will solve the same problem as above, but using the quadratic formula instead of iterations, to show that the same value
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

[H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

Explanation:

As HNO₂ is a weak acid, its equilibrium in water is:

HNO₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)

Equilibrium constant, ka, is defined as:

ka = 4.5x10⁻⁴ = [H₃O⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] <em>(1)</em>

Equilibrium concentration of each specie are:

[HNO₂] = 0.00250M - x

[H₃O⁺] = x

[NO₂⁻] = x

Replacing in (1):

4.5x10⁻⁴ = x × x / 0.00250M - x

1.125x10⁻⁶ - 4.5x10⁻⁴x = x²

0 = x² + 4.5x10⁻⁴x - 1.125x10⁻⁶

As the quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

Coefficients are:

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

Now, solving quadratic equation:

x = -0.0013 → False answer, there is no negative concentrations.

<em>x = 0.000859</em>

As [H₃O⁺] = x; <em>[H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M</em>

I hope it helps!

Two layers of earth have convection currents
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: Mantle and core are the two layers of the earth that have convection currents.

Explanation:

The mantle and outer core are the two layers that are associated with the convection currents. In the mantle the convection currents occur due to the heat emerging out of the core also mantle region releases heat. If the transfer of heat or convection currents stop then the mantle will not flow and the core will not produce magnetic field at all. This will lead to coldness in earth and earth will lose the protection from harmful radiations.
