Answer:

11.72 grams

Explanation:

Let the equilibrium concentration of BrCl be y

Initial concentration of Br2 = number of moles ÷ volume = (0.979×1000/160) ÷ 199 = 0.031 M

Initial concentration of Cl2 = (1.075×1000/71) ÷ 199 = 0.076 M

From the equation of reaction

1 mole of Br2 reacted with 1 mole of Cl2 to form 2 moles of BrCl

Therefore, equilibrium concentration of Br2 = (0.031 - 0.5y) M while that of Cl2 = (0.076 - 0.5y) M

Kp = [BrCl]^2/[Br2][Cl2]

1.1×10^-4 = y^2/(0.031 - 0.5y)(0.076 - 0.5y)

y^2/0.002356-0.0535y+0.25y^2 = 0.00011

y^2/0.00011 = 0.002356-0.0536y+0.25y^2

9090.9y^2-0.25y^2+0.0536y-0.002356 = 0

9090.65y^2+0.0535y-0.002356 = 0

The value of y must be positive and is obtained using the quadratic formula

y = [-0.0535 + sqrt(0.0535^2 - 4×9090.65×-0.002356)] ÷ 2(9090.65) = 9.2025/18181.3 = 0.00051 M

Mass of BrCl = concentration×volume×MW = 0.00051×199×115.5 = 11.72 grams

Which choice is an example of an endothermic process?

77julia77 [94]

Answer: conversion of ice to steam

Explanation: Endothermic process is one in which energy is absorbed by the system.

Conversion of ice to steam is change of solid phase to gaseous phase, thus energy is required to break the strong inter molecular forces of attraction in solids to convert it into gaseous phase.

Conversion of steam to ice, conversion of steam to water and conversion of water to ice releases energy and are examples of exothermic processes.

\"Moving down group 2A (Alkaline Earth Metals), which element has the largest first ionization energy?\" Is the answer to this:

lesya692 [45]

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electron from one mole of gaseous atom to produce 1 mole of gaseous in to produce a charge of 1. The greater the ionization energy, the greater is the chance f the electron to be removed from the nucleus. In this casse, Radium has the largest ionization energy.

A 32.5 g iron rod, initially at 22.4 ∘C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.0 ∘C, in an insulated container. The f

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

$m_{H_2O}=39.0g$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, is possible to infer that the thermal equilibrium is governed by the following relationship:

$\Delta H_{iron}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}\\m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})=-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})$

Thus, both iron's and water's heat capacities are: 0.444 and 4.18 J/g°C respectively, so one solves for the mass of water as shown below:

$m_{H_2O}=\frac{m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})}{-Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O}} \\\\m_{H_2O}=\frac{32.5g*0.444\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-22.4)^0C}{-4.18\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-63.0)^0C} \\\\m_{H_2O}=39.0g$

Best regards.
