Calculate the number of moles of Cl2 produced at equilibrium when 3.98 mol of PCl5 is heated at 283.9 deg celsius in a vessel ha

ddd [48]

Answer:

1.274 moles

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction can be represented as follows:

$PCl_5(g)$ ⇄ $PCl_3(g)$ + $Cl_2(g)$

K = 0.060

K = $\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}$

Concentration of $PCl_5(g)$ = $\frac{numbers of moles}{volume}$

Concentration of $PCl_5(g)$ = $\frac{3.98}{10.0}$

Concentration of $PCl_5(g)$ = 0.398 moles

If we construct an ICE table for the above equation; we have:

$PCl_5(g)$ ⇄ $PCl_3(g)$ + $Cl_2(g)$

Initial 0.398 0 0

Change - x + x + x

Equilibrium (0.398 - x) x x

K = $\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}$

K = $\frac{[x][x]}{[0.398-x]}$

K = $\frac{x^2}{0.398-x}$

0.060 = $\frac{x^2}{0.398-x}$

0.06(0.398-x) = x²

0.02388 - 0.060x = x²

x² + 0.060x - 0.02388 = 0 (quadratic equation)

a = 1; b= 0.06; c= -0.02388

Using quadratic formula;

= $\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

= $\frac{-0.06+/-\sqrt{(0.06)^2-4(1)(-0.02388)} }{(2*1)}$

= $\frac{-0.060+/-\sqrt{0.0036+0.09552} }{2}$

= $\frac{-0.06+/-\sqrt{0.09912} }{2}$

= $\frac{-0.06+/-0.3148}{2}$

= $\frac{-0.060+0.3148}{2}$ or $\frac{-0.060-0.3148}{2}$

= $\frac{0.2548}{2}$ or $\frac{-0.3748}{2}$

= 0.1274 or -0.1874

We go by the positive value which says:

[x] = 0.1274 M

number of moles = 0.1274 × 10.0

= 1.274 moles

∴ the number of moles of Cl₂ produced at equilibrium = 1.274 moles

What is the empirical formula of a compound that contains 32.39 percent sodium, 22.53 percent sulfur, and 45.07 percent oxygen?

djverab [1.8K]

To get the empirical formula of this compound, we take a basis of 100 grams which means each percentage is equivalent to 1 gram. Hence there is 32.39 grams sodium, 22. 53 grams sulfur and 45.07 grams oxygen. We convert each mass to their moles by dividing by their respective molar mass. Na: 1.408, S:0.704 and O:2.82. divide each with the lowest: Na: 2: S: 1 and O:4. Hence the formula is Na2SO4.

The chemical equation below shows the reaction of glucose and oxygen.

goldfiish [28.3K]

• Aerobic respiration, photosynthesis

It is aerobic because it requires oxygen to be carried out. Anaerobic on the other hand does not require oxygen.

It’s two products would be the reactants for photosynthesis because in photosynthesis the reverse reaction takes place as glucose is produced along with water from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight.
