Answer is: 20 ions, left side.

Unbalanced half reaction: C₅O₅²⁻(g) → CO₃²⁻(aq).

1) There are 5 carbon atoms on the left side of half reaction and 1 carbon atom on right, so first add coefficient 5 in fron of carbon dioxide to balance carbon atoms: C₅O₅²⁻(g) → 5CO₃²⁻(aq).

2) Because there are more oxygen atoms on the right, add OH⁻ ions on the left side of half reaction and water on the right: OH⁻(aq) + C₅O₅²⁻(g) → 5CO₃²⁻(aq) + H₂O(l).

3) Balance oxygen (25 atoms on boths side) and hydrogen (20 atoms on both side of half reaction) atoms:

Balanced half reaction: 20OH⁻(aq) + C₅O₅²⁻(g) → 5CO₃²⁻(aq) + 10H₂O(l).

What is true when a reaction has reached equilibrium?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates, and the concentrations of products and reactants remain constant. A catalyst speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction, but has no effect upon the equilibrium position for that reaction.

tatiyna

Explanation:

It is known that the specific heat capacity of Liver (C_{p}) is 3.59 kJ kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

It is given that :

Initial temperature of Liver = Body temperature = 37^{o}C = 310 K

Final temperature of Liver = 180 K

Relation between heat energy, mass, and change in temperature is as follows.

                        Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                    Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

                    Q = 1.5 kg \times 3.59 kJ/kg.K \times (310 - 180) K

                         =  700.05 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that amount of heat which must be removed from the liver is 700.05 kJ.
