Base your answer on the information below and your knowledge of chemistry. Methanol can be manufactured by a reaction that is re

versible. In the reaction, carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas react using a catalyst. The equation below represents this system at equilibrium. CO(g) 2H2(g) CH3OH(g) energy. Explain, in terms of collision theory, why increasing the concentration of H2(g) in this system will increase the concentration of CH3OH(g).

Explanation:

For the given reaction:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

CO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_3OH(g)

Rate=k[CO]^x[H_2]^y

where x and y are order wrt to CO and H_2

According to collision theory , the molecules must collide for a reaction to take place. According to collision theory , the rate of a reaction is proportional to rate of collision of reactants.

Thus with an increase in concentration of reactants , the rate of reaction also increases. This is because if the concentration of reactants increases , the chances of collision between molecules also increases and thus more products wil be formed which in turn increases the rate of reaction.

Pb(CH3COO)2 + H2S --&gt; PbS + CH3COOH 1. How many moles are produced of PbS when 5.00 grams of Pb(CH3COO)2 is reacted with H2S?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

1. 0.0154mole of PbS

2. Double displacement reaction

Explanation:

First, let write a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Pb(CH3COO)2 + H2S —> PbS + 2 CH3COOH

Molar Mass of Pb(CH3COO)2 = 207 + 2(12 + 3 + 12 + 16 +16) = 207 + 2(59) = 207 + 118 = 325g

Mass of Pb(CH3COO)2 = 5g

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of Pb(CH3COO)2 = 5/325 = 0.0154mole

From the equation,

1mole of Pb(CH3COO)2 produced 1mole of PbS.

Therefore, 0.0154mole of Pb(CH3COO)2 will also produce 0.0154mole of PbS

2. The name of the reaction is double displacement reaction since the ions in the two reactants interchange to form two different products
