A) releasing CO2 that dissolves and forms acid in the oceans (i think i'm sorry if its wrong)

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When CO_{2} is released from driving cars, some of which is absorbed by the plants but the rest of CO_{2} reacts with the sea or ocean water.

It reacts with water molecules and changes the chemistry of ocean water by lowering its pH. As it is known that when pH becomes lower then the substance becomes acidic in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that driving cars lowers the pH of the oceans by releasing CO_{2} that dissolves and forms acid in the oceans.

The vapor pressure of water at 25.0°c is 23.8 torr. determine the mass of glucose (molar mass = 180 g/mol) needed to add to 500.
svp [43]
Q: A
according to this formula, we can get the mole fraction of water (n):
P(solu) = n Pv(water)
when we have Pv(solu) = 22.8 and Pv(water) = 23.8 so by substitution:
22.8 = n * 23.8
n= 0.958
- we need to get the moles of glucose:
moles of water = 500 g(mass weight) / 18 (molar weight)= 27.7 mol
n = moles of water / ( moles of water + moles of glucose)
0.958   = 27.7 / ( 27.7+ moles of glucose)
0.958 moles of glucose + 26.5 = 27.7
0.968 moles of glucose = 1.2
moles of glucose = 1.253 mol
∴ the mass of glucose = no.of glucose moles x molar mass 
                                      = 1.253 x 180 = 225.5 g
Q: B
here we also need to get n (mole fraction of water )by using this formula:
Pv(solu) = n Pv(water)
when we have Pv(solu)=132 & Pv(water)=150 so, by substition:
132= n * 150
n = 0.88
so, mole fraction of solution = 1 - 0.88 = 0.12
and we can get after that the moles of water = (mass weight / molar mass)
- no.moles of water = 85 g / 18 g/mol = 4.7 moles
- total moles in solution = moles of water / moles fraction of water 
                                        = 4.7 / 0.88 = 5.34 moles 
∴ moles of the solution = total moles in solu - moles of water 
                                       = 5.34 - 4.7 = 0.64 moles solute
∴ the molar mass of the solute = mass weight of solute / no.of moles of solute
                                                    = 53.8 / 0.64 = 84 g/mole

Q: C

moles of urea (NH2)2 CO = mass weight / molar mass
                                           = 4.49 g / 60 g /mol
                                           = 0.07 mol
moles of methanol = mass weight / molar mass 
                                 = 39.9  g / 32  g/mol = 1.25 mol
moles fraction of methanol = moles of methanol / (moles of methanol + moles of urea )
moles fraction of methanol = 1.25 / ( 1.25+0.07) = 0.95
by substitution in Pv formula we will be able to get the vapour pressure of the solu :
Pv(solu) = n P°v
Pv(solu) = 0.95 * 89 mm Hg 
∴Pv(solu) = 84.55 mmHg

The equilibrium constant for the formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen is 1.6 × 102. what is the form of the equilibri
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: The expression for equilibrium constant is \frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}

Explanation: Equilibrium constant is the expression which relates the concentration of products and reactants preset at equilibrium at constant temperature. It is represented as k_c

For a general reaction:

aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD

The equilibrium constant is written as:

k_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

Chemical reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

N_2+3H_3\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3

k_c=1.6\times 10^2

Expression for k_c is:

k_c=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}

1.6\times 10^2=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}
