Answer : The equilibrium constant for this reaction is, K=\frac{(K_b)^2}{K_a}

Explanation :

The given main chemical reaction is:

N_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_4(g);  K

The intermediate reactions are:

(1) N_2O_4(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g);  K_a

(2) \frac{1}{2}N_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g);  K_b

We are reversing reaction 1 and multiplying reaction 2 by 2 and then adding both reaction, we get:

(1) 2NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_4(g);  \frac{1}{K_a}

(2) N_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g);  (K_b)^2

Thus, the equilibrium constant for this reaction will be:

K=\frac{1}{K_a}\times (K_b)^2

K=\frac{(K_b)^2}{K_a}

Thus, the equilibrium constant for this reaction is, K=\frac{(K_b)^2}{K_a}

H2O has a mc021-1.jpgHvap = 40.7 kJ/mol. What is the quantity of heat that is released when 27.9 g of H2O condenses?
babymother [125]

Energy released from changing the phase of a substance from the gas phase to liquid phase can be calculated by using the specific latent heat of vaporization. The heat of fusion of water at 0 degrees Celsius is 40.7 kJ/mol. Calculation are as follows:<span> </span>


Energy = 27.9 g (1 mol / 18.02 g) x 40.7 kJ/mol


Energy = 63.09 kJ

The electronic configuration of an element is given below.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

It is reactive because it has to gain an electron to have a full outermost energy level.

Explanation:

The electron configuration of oxygen is 1s2,2s2 2p4.

Oxygen is in group six in the periodic table so it has six electrons in its valence shell. This means that it needs to gain two electrons to obey the octet rule and have a full outer shell of electrons (eight).

For the reaction 2kclo3(s)→2kcl(s)+3o2(g) calculate how many grams of oxygen form when each quantity of reactant completely reac
barxatty [35]
First, we need to get the molar mass of:

KClO3 = 39.1 + 35.5 + 3*16 = 122.6 g/mol

KCl =39.1 + 35.5 = 74.6 g/mol

O2 = 16*2 = 32 g/mol

From the given equation we can see that:

every 2 moles of KClO3 gives 3 moles of O2

when mass = moles * molar mass

∴ the mass of KClO3 = (2mol of KClO3*122.6g/mol) = 245.2 g

and the mass of O2 then = 3 mol * 32g/mol = 96 g

so, 245.2 g of KClO3 gives 96 g of O2

A) 2.72 g of KClO3: 

when 245.2 KClO3 gives → 96 g  O2

   2.72 g KClO3 gives →  X

X = 2.72 g KClO3 * 96 g O2/245.2 KClO3

    = 1.06 g of O2

B) 0.361 g KClO3:

when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2

     0.361 g KClO3 gives → X

∴ X = 0.361g KClO3 * 96 g / 245.2 g

       = 0.141 g of O2

C) 83.6 Kg KClO3:

when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2

       83.6 Kg KClO3 gives  →  X

∴X = 83.6 Kg* 96 g O2 /245.2 g KClO3

     = 32.7 Kg of O2

D) 22.4 mg of KClO3:

when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2

        22.4 mg KClO3 gives → X

∴X = 22.4 mg * 96 g O2 / 245.2 g KClO3

      = 8.8 mg of O2
