Question:

<em>For an exothermic reaction at equilibrium, how will increasing the temperature affect Keq?</em>

Answer:

<em>The reaction will proceed towards the liquid phase. Heat is on the reactant side of the equation. Lowering temperature will shift equilibrium left, creating more liquid water. A reaction that is exothermic releases heat, while an endothermic reaction absorbs heat.</em>

<em>If you increase the temperature, the position of equilibrium will move in such a way as to reduce the temperature again. It will do that by favouring the reaction which absorbs heat. In the equilibrium, that will be the back reaction because the forward reaction is exothermic.</em>

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

- 178 ºC

Explanation:

The ideal gas law states that :

PV = nRT,

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is number of moles , R is the gas constant and T is the absolute temperature.

For the initial conditions :

P₁ V₁ = n₁ R T₁ (1)

and for the final conditions:

P₂V₂= n₂ R T₂ where n₂ = n₁/2 then P₂ V₂ = n₁/2 T₂ (2)

Assuming V₂ = V₁ and dividing (2) by Eqn (1) :

P₂ V₂ = n₁/2 R T₂ / ( n₁ R T₁) then P₂ / P₁ = 1/2 T₂ / T₁

4.10 atm / 25.7 atm = 1/2 T₂ / 298 K ⇒ T₂ = 0.16 x 298 x 2 = 95.1 K

T₂ = 95 - 273 = - 178 º C

notsponge [240]

Answer:

The four resonance structures of the phenoxide ion are shown in the image attached

The conjugate base of cyclohexanol has only one resonance contributor, while

the conjugate base of phenol has four resonance contributors.

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, it is known that structures are more stable if they possess more resonance contributors. The greater the number of contributing canonical structures, the more stable the organic specie. Since the phenoxide ion has four contributing canonical structures, it is quite much more stable than cyclohexanol having only one contributing structure to its conjugate base. Hence the PKa(acid dissociation constant) of phenol is lesser than that of cyclohexanol. The conjugate base of phenol is stabilized by resonance.
