First you have a knowledge of bond order which is
 B.O=(no. of electrons in bonding orbital - no. of electrons in non-bonding orbital)÷2  
Note:
bond strength is directly proportional to bond order.
For oxygen:
B.O=(6-2)/2= 2; after the removal of two electrons(removal occur from non-bonding orbital)
B.O=(6-0)/2= 3 (As B.O increased bond strength increased)
For Nitrogen:
B.O=(6-0)/2= 3; after the removal of two electrons(removal occur from bonding orbital)
B.O=(4-0)/2= 2 (As B.O decreased bond strength decreased)

A liquid-phase isomerization is carried out in a 1000-gal CSTR that has a single impeller located halfway down the reactor. The
igomit [66]

Answer:

The conversion achieved for the first CSTR impeller is 0.382

Discrepancy = 0.188

Explanation:

The impeller divides the CSTR into 2 equal reactors of volume 500gal

Using V = FaoX/ (-ra)

500gal = Fao×Xa/[(KCao^2( 1 -X1)^2]

500gal = CaoVoX1/ KCao^2(1-X1)

500gal= 500gal × X1'/(1 - X1)^2

(1 -X1)^2 = X1

X1^2 - 3X1 + 1 = 0

X1= 0.382

Conversion achieved in the first CSTR is 0.382

Actual measured CSTR = 57% =57/100=0.57

Discrepancy in the conversions= 0.57 -0.383 =0.188

What coefficients are needed to balance the following equation?<br><br> H2O + Fe Fe2O3 + H2
earnstyle [38]
H2O+Fe⇒Fe2O3+H2

When it is balanced it would be:

3H2O+2Fe⇒Fe2O3+3H2

When balancing equations, you have to make sure that all elements are equal on each side.
