Hello,

Here are your answers:

The proper answers to your questions are....

1. "Chemical bond energy is converted to kinetic energy"...... which causes it to release energy around its surroundings!

2. "Endothermic reactions"...... Endothermic reactions are the things that absorb the energy!

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Suppose that some FeSCN2+ is added to the above solution to shift the equilibrium. When equilibrium is re-established, the follo

kiruha [24]

Explanation:

The given reaction equation will be as follows.

$[FeSCN^{2+}] \rightleftharpoons [Fe^{3+}] + [SCN^{-}]$

Let is assume that at equilibrium the concentrations of given species are as follows.

$[Fe^{3+}] = 8.17 \times 10^{-3}$ M

$[SCN^{-}] = 8.60 \times 10^{-3}$ M

$[FeSCN^{2+}] = 6.25 \times 10^{-2}$ M

Now, first calculate the value of $K_{eq}$ as follows.

$K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}$

= $\frac{8.17 \times 10^{-3} \times 8.60 \times 10^{-3}}{6.25 \times 10^{-2}}$

= $11.24 \times 10^{-4}$

Now, according to the concentration values at the re-established equilibrium the value for $[FeSCN^{2+}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}$

$11.24 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{8.12 \times 10^{-3} \times 7.84 \times 10^{-3}}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}$

$[FeSCN^{2+}] = 5.66 \times 10^{-2}$ M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of $[FeSCN^{2+}]$ in the new equilibrium mixture is $5.66 \times 10^{-2}$ M.

Consider this reaction mechanism: Step 1: Mo(CO)6→ Mo(CO)5 + CO Step 2: Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3→ Mo(CO)5P(CH3)3 Which of these is an i

Alja [10]

Answer:

Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.

In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.

The overall balanced equation would be,

Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3

The equilibrium constant for the reaction AgBr(s) Picture Ag+(aq) + Br− (aq) is the solubility product constant, Ksp = 7.7 × 10−

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations.

Explanation:

$AgBr(s)\rightarrow Ag^+(aq) + Br^- (aq)$

Expression for an equilibrium constant $K_c$ :

$K_c=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{[AgCl]}=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{1}=[Ag^+][Br^-]$

Solubility product of the reaction:

$K_{sp}=[Ag^+][Br^-]=K_c=7.7\times 10^{-13}$

Reaction between Gibb's free energy and equilibrium constant if given as:

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_c$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_{sp}$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times 8.314 J/K mol\times 298 K\times \log[7.7\times 10^{-13}]$

$\Delta G^o=69,117.84 J/mol=69.117 kJ/mol$

Gibb's free energy when concentration $[Ag^+] = 1.0\times 10^{-2} M$ and $[Br^-] = 1.0\times 10^{-3} M$

Reaction quotient of an equilibrium = Q

$Q=[Ag^+][Br^-]=1.0\times 10^{-2} M\times 1.0\times 10^{-3} M=1.0\times 10^{-5}$

$\Delta G=\Delta G^o+(2.303\times R\times T\times \log Q)$

$\Delta G=69.117 kJ/mol+(2.303\times 8.314 Joule/mol K\times 298 K\times \log[1.0\times 10^{-5}])$

$\Delta G=40.588 kJ/mol$

For reaction to spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G$ .
For reaction to non spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G>0$ .

Since ,the value of Gibbs free energy is greater than zero which means reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations

Answer: possibly diffusion

Explanation:

all particles are in motion unless at a certain degree so they'd spread throughout the room diluting as they continue to spread out.

Brut [27]

A) -0.5(9.8)*t^2 = -25(t-2) - 0.5(9.8)(t-2)^2

t = 5.62962963 s

b) h = -4.9(5.62962963)^2
