Although both N2 and 02 are naturally present in the air we breathe, high levels of NO and NO2 in the atmosphere occur mainly in

regions with large automobile or power plant emissions. The equilibrium constant for the reaction of N2 and 02 to give NO is very small. The reaction is, however, highly endothermic, with a heat of reaction equal to +180 kJ (Equation 7). N2(g) + O2(g) 180 kJ 2NO(g) Equation 7 +
(a) Use LeChâtelier's Principle to explain why the concentration of NO at equilibrium increases when the reaction takes place at high temperatures.

(b) Use LeChâtelier's Principle to predict whether the concentration of NO at equilibrium should increase when the reaction takes place at high pressures.

Answer:

(a) Increasing the temperature adds heat which is a reactant shifting the equilibrium rightwards.

(b) Pressure has no effect since the change in the number of moles is zero.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, one could represent the given reaction as:

N_2(g)+O_2(g)+ \Delta _rH \leftrightarrow 2NO

Since it is endothermic. Thus, solving the (a) statement, one identifies the heat as a reagent, that is why the reaction cools down as it progress, therefore, by increasing the temperature, heat is added, that is, a reagent is added, which shifts the equilibrium rightwards, in other words, more NO is produced so its concentration increases.

Furthermore, for the (b) statement, since the change in the number of moles is zero, based on the stoichiometric coefficients as shown below:

\Delta \nu =2-1-1=0

Such value implies that the pressure has no effect on the concentration, taking into account the following form of the law of mass action:

Kp=Kc(RT)^{\Delta \nu }

Thus, since \Delta \nu =0, Kp=Kc, so no effect in concentration is due to the pressure.

Best regards.

Which reaction occurs at the cathode of a lead-storage battery that is being recharged?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Reaction on positive electrode (cathode):
PbSO₄₍s₎ + 2H₂O₍l₎ → 2e⁻ + PbO₂₍s₎ + 4H⁺₍aq₎ + SO₄²⁻₍aq₎.
s - solid.
l - liquid.
aq - dissolve in water.
PbSO4 is converted to Pb at one electrode (anode) and to PbO₂ at the other (cathode). Lead battery can be recharged, during recharging, an external source of energy is used.

Express in scientific notation. Make sure your answer has the same number of significant figures as the starting value. (1.8 x 1
slamgirl [31]

Answer : The answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is defined as the way or representation of expressing the number that are too big or too small that is written in the decimal form. That means always written in the power of 10 form.

For example : 8000 is written as, 8.0\times 10^3  in this notation, the significant figure is, 1 but 0.8\times 10^4  in this notation, the significant figures are, 2

The given problem are :

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{9\times 10^2}=0.2\times 10^{-4}

According to the divide and multiplication rules of scientific figures, the final answer is only as precise as the value with the least number of significant figures.

Hence, the answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}
