Answer:
0.4 M
Explanation:
Equilibrium occurs when the velocity of the formation of the products is equal to the velocity of the formation of the reactants. It can be described by the equilibrium constant, which is the multiplication of the concentration of the products elevated by their coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentration of the reactants elevated by their coefficients. So, let's do an equilibrium chart for the reaction.
Because there's no O₂ in the beginning, the NO will decompose:
N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)
0.30 0 0.70 Initial
+x +x -2x Reacts (the stoichiometry is 1:1:2)
0.30+x x 0.70-2x Equilibrium
The equilibrium concentrations are the number of moles divided by the volume (0.250 L):
[N₂] = (0.30 + x)/0.250
[O₂] = x/0.25
[NO] = (0.70 - 2x)/0.250
K = [NO]²/([N₂]*[O₂])
K =
7.70 = (0.70-2x)²/[(0.30+x)*x]
7.70 = (0.49 - 2.80x + 4x²)/(0.30x + x²)
4x² - 2.80x + 0.49 = 2.31x + 7.70x²
3.7x² + 5.11x - 0.49 = 0
Solving in a graphical calculator (or by Bhaskara's equation), x>0 and x<0.70
x = 0.09 mol
Thus,
[O₂] = 0.09/0.250 = 0.36 M ≅ 0.4 M
Answer: The mass percentage of is 5.86%
Explanation:
To calculate the mass percentage of in the sample it is necessary to know the mass of the solute (
in this case), and the mass of the solution (pesticide sample, whose mass is explicit in the letter of the problem).
To calculate the mass of the solute, we must take the mass of the precipitate. We can establish a relation between the mass of
and
using the stoichiometry of the compounds:
Since for every mole of Tl in there are two moles of Tl in
, we have:
Using the molar mass of we have:
Finally, we can use the mass percentage formula:
