The first step in industrial nitric acid production is the catalyzed oxidation of ammonia. Without a catalyst, a different react

ion predominates: 4NH3(g) + 3O2(g) ⇔ 2N2(g) + 6H2O(g) When 0.0280 mol gaseous NH3 and 0.0120 mol gaseous O2 are placed in a 1.00 L container at a certain temperature, the N2 concentration at equilibrium is 3.00×10-3 M. Calculate Keq for the reaction at this temperature.

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_{eq} is 4.84\times 10^{-5}

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial moles of ammonia = 0.0280 moles

Initial moles of oxygen gas = 0.0120 moles

Volume of the container = 1.00 L

Concentration of a substance is calculated by:

\text{Concentration}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume}}

So, concentration of ammonia = \frac{0.0280}{1.00}=0.0280M

Concentration of oxygen gas = \frac{0.0120}{1.00}=0.0120M

The given chemical equation follows:

                  4NH_3(g)+3O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2N_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

<u>Initial:</u>        0.0280        0.0120

<u>At eqllm:</u>    0.0280-4x   0.0120-3x   2x       6x

We are given:

Equilibrium concentration of nitrogen gas = 3.00\times 10^{-3}M=0.003

Evaluating the value of 'x', we get:

\Rightarrow 2x=0.003\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.0015M

Now, equilibrium concentration of ammonia = 0.0280-4x=[0.0280-(4\times 0.0015)]=0.022M

Equilibrium concentration of oxygen gas = 0.0120-3x=[0.0120-(3\times 0.0015)]=0.0075M

Equilibrium concentration of water = 6x=(6\times 0.0015)]=0.009M

The expression of K_{eq} for the above reaction follows:

K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2O]^6\times [N_2]^2}{[NH_3]^4\times [O_2]^3}

Putting values in above expression, we get:

K_{eq}=\frac{(0.009)^6\times (0.003)^2}{(0.022)^4\times (0.0075)^3}\\\\K_{eq}=4.84\times 10^{-5}

Hence, the value of K_{eq} is 4.84\times 10^{-5}

The chief advantage of the metric system over other system of measurement is that it
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The metric system goes by powers of ten, so it's very easy to measure. That would be the main advantage, measurements of ten. We can also say it's the most used measurement around the world, so all scientists have little to no conversion, but the main answer is probably the first one :)

What mass of ethanol (C2H5OH(ℓ)) must be burned to supply 500 kJ of heat? The standard enthalpy of combustion of ethanol at 298
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

16.84 g

Explanation:

Assuming that the ethanol is free of water

the number of moles of ethanol to generate 500 KJ = 500 / 1368 = 0.3655 mol

molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

mass of ethanol needed = 46.07 × 0.3655 = 16.84 g

How do the major and minor scale divisions relate the precision of measurements taken with a metric ruler or graduated cylinder?
Nata [24]

Answer: Major scale and minor scale both relate the precision of measurements with more true value of measurement.

Explanation:

Major scale in a measuring device is maximum unit value on the scale that can be measured.

Minor scale in a measuring device is a least unit value on the scale that can be measured.

In a metric ruler major scale is 1 cm and minor scale is 0.1 mm which means one can measure accurate value up-to one decimal point and in 10 ml of graduated cylinder major scale division is 1 ml minor scale division is 0.01.
