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

An alcohol thermometer makes use of alcohol's changing in order to measure temperature. As the temperature goes up.

kotegsom [21]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

An alcohol thermometer makes use of alcohol's changing _______ in order to measure temperature. As the temperature goes up, the alcohol contained in the thermometer increases in volume, filling more of the thermometer's tube.

mass

state

chemical composition

density

Answer:

density

Explanation:

Every kind of thermometer makes use of a change in a particular physical property of a substance as a measure of temperature. It must be a property that changes with temperature.

Density of a substance changes with temperature. Even though the mass of alcohol in glass remains constant, but its volume increases or decreases with change in temperature leading to a change in volume and consequently a change in density of the alcohol in glass. This change is used as a measure of the change in temperature.

What is the value of the equilibrium constant at 25 oC for the reaction between the pair: I2(s) and Br-(aq) Give your answer usi

insens350 [35]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate standard electrode potential is as follows.

$E^{o}_{cell} = E^{0}_{cathode} - E^{0}_{anode}$

= 0.535 - 1.065

= - 0.53 V

Also, it is known that relation between $E^{o}_{cell}$ and K is as follows.

$E^{o}_{cell} = \frac{RT}{nF} \times ln K$

ln K = $\frac{nFE^{0}_{cell}}{RT}$

Substituting the given values into the above formula as follows.

ln K = $\frac{nFE^{0}_{cell}}{RT}$

= $\frac{2 \times 96485 C mol^{-1} \times -0.53 V}{8.314 l atm/mol K \times 298 K} \times \frac{1 J}{1 V C}$

ln K = -41.28

K = $e^{-41.28}$

= $1 \times 10^{-18}$

Thus, we can conclude that the value of the equilibrium constant for the given reaction is $1 \times 10^{-18}$ .

Human body cells are made by doing what ?

frozen [14]

Answer:

When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two. Two cells become four and so on.
