Answer:

A) increasing the pressure

Explanation:

Given the exothermic reaction:

2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ↔  2SO₃(g)

the question asks what will make the number of moles of SO₃(g) to increase.

When an equilibrium is disturbed, the system will shift in order to counteract the change (see <em>Le Chatelier's Principle</em>) So <em>when the pressure is increased in a reaction involving gases, the equilibrium will shift trying to decrease the number of moles </em>(because pressure is produced by molecules hitting the container), that is in this case it will shift towards the right side, towards the production of SO₃, thus increasing the number of moles of SO₃.

The number of moles in the right side is 2 and the number of moles in the left side is 3.

If 2.0 mol of Zn is mixed with 3.0 mol<br> of HCl, which reactant will be limiting?
Soloha48 [4]

The following Balanced Reaction will take place:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

In the question, we have 2 moles of Zinc and 3 moles of HCl for this reaction

<u>Amount of HCl required to completely react with 2 moles of Zn:</u>

Since we need 2 moles of HCl for every mole of Zn, we will need 2(2) = 4 moles of HCl for every 2 moles of Zn

<u>Identifying the Limiting Reagent:</u>

But we are only given 3 moles of HCl where we need 4 moles to completely react.

So, since HCl is in less amount, it is the Limiting Reagent

Characteristics of crystal​
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Crystalline solids, or crystals, have distinctive internal structures that in turn lead to distinctive flat surfaces, or faces. The faces intersect at angles that are characteristic of the substance. When exposed to x-rays, each structure also produces a distinctive pattern that can be used to identify the material.

according to the balanced chemical equation below,how many grams of h20 are produced if 3.98g of co2 were produced. 2C18H18 + 25
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Primero debes usar los gramos de co2 y luego buscar su peso molecular, luego de eso usar la relación de moles entre CO2 y H2O y por último buscar el pm del H2O pata ver cuantos gramos de produce.

What is the function of a lyase enzyme?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

c. To facilitate a reaction of one substrate to form two products without the use of water

Explanation:

A lyase is an enzyme that catalyzes - accelerates the chemical reaction - in which a substrate is broken into two molecules. The reaction does not involve hydrolysis or oxidation, so the water molecule is not included in the chemical reaction. Thus, the enzyme facilitates the reaction in which a molecule (substrate) is decomposed into two molecules with the elimination of chemical bonds.
