Answer : Majorly the VSEPR theory is used to determine the molecular shape of a compound.

It gives us the information about the bond angles in the molecule, which helps us to determine the 3D shape of a molecule.

The movement of bond and the free electrons are shown and the most stable structure is determined on that basis.

Hydrogen is manufactured on an industrial scale by this sequence of reactions: Write an equation that gives the overall equilibr

RideAnS [48]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Hydrogen is manufactured on an industrial scale by this sequence of reactions:

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_2$

The net reaction is :

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

Write an equation that gives the overall equilibrium constant $K$ in terms of the equilibrium constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ . If you need to include any physical constants, be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator.

Solution :

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$K_1 = \frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]}$ ...............(1)

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_2$

$K_2 = \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$ ...................(2)

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

$K=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$

On multiplication of equation (1) and (2), we get

$K_1 \times K_2=\frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]} \times \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$

$K_1K_2=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$ .................(4)

Comparing equation (3) and equation (4), we get

$K=K_1K_2$

A reaction mixture at 175 k initially contains 522 torr of no and 421 torr of o2. at equilibrium, the total pressure in the reac

zzz [600]

The chemical equation would be:

2NO(g) + O2(g) --> 2NO2 (g)

At equilibrium state, the partial pressure of the gases would be as follows : 

NO = 522 - 2x 

O2 = 421 - x 

NO2 = 2x 
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
943 - x = 748 

x = 195

Calculating for Kp,

Kp = (NO2)^2/ ((NO)^2 * (O2)) 

Kp = (2 * 195)^2/ ((522 - 2 * 195)^2 * (421 - 195)) 

Kp = 0.0386
