At 400 k, the equilibrium constant for the reaction is kc = 7.0. br2 (g) + cl2 (g) 2brcl (g) a closed vessel at 400 k is charged

with 1.00 m of br2 (g), 1.00 m of cl2 (g), and 3.00 m of brcl (g).
a.write the equilibrium expression for this reaction.
b.find q and determine if the reaction shifts to the left or right.
c.draw an ice chart for the reaction.

a) when Kc = concentration of products / concentration of reactants
  So according  to the reaction equation:
Br2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2BrCl(g)

∴ Kc =[BrCl] ^2 / [Br2][Cl2]

b) when q = [BrCl]^2 / [Br2][Cl2]
and we have [BrCl] = 3 m 
[Br2] = 1 m 
[Cl2] = 1 m
So by substitution:
q= 3^2 / 1*1 = 9 

- and we can see that q > Kc 
the reaction is not at equilibrium that means there are more products and the reaction shifts to the left to increase the reactants and decrease the products to achieve equilibrium.

C) by using ICE table:

              Br2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2BrCl (g)
initial       1               1               3
change  -X              -X            +X
Equ       (1-X)          (1-X)         (3+X)

when Kc = [Brcl]^2/[Cl2][Br2]
by substitution:
7 = (3+X)^2 / (1+X) (1+X)  by solving this equation for X
∴X = 0.215
so at equilibrium:
∴ [Br2] = [Cl2] = 1-0.215 = 0.785 m 
    [BrCl] = 3+0.215 = 3.215 m

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.

Explanation:

The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.

The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.

What type of rock is show here? How do you know?
mart [117]

Answer:

Sedimentary Rock. You know from the fossils and remains of shells inside.

Explanation:

If it were igneous, the fossils would be melted away. Maybe not with metamorphic, but it's most likely sedimentary.
