If the hydronium ion concentration is increased, the pH of the solution decreases.

Answer:

The pH would decrease and the solution would become more acidic

Explanation:

pH of a solution is a measure of its hydronium ion (H3O+) concentration. Mathematically it is given as:

pH = -log[H3O+] -------(1)\\\\i.e. [H3O+] = 10^{-pH} ------(2)\\

It is given that pH of the solution = 2.4

Therefore based on equation (2), the [H3O+] would be:

[H3O+] = 10^{-2.4} = 3.98*10^{-3} M

If the [H3O+] concentration were increased then based on equation (1) the pH of the solution would decrease i.e. it would become more acidic.

For example, lets say that the new [H3O+] = 5.0 * 10⁻³ M, then

pH = -log[5*10^{-3} ] = 2.3

If temperature is increased , the number of collision per second
Tomtit [17]

Answer: increases

Explanation:

Increase in the temperature of a reaction system will cause the molecules of the reactants to possess higher kinetic energy which they would use to travel more randomly in the system, colliding more frequently with other excited molecules and with the wall of the containing vessel.

Thus, if temperature is increased, the number of collision per second also increases.

Find the equilibrium value of [CO] if Kc=14.5 : CO (g) + 2H2 (g) ↔ CH3OH (g) Equilibrium concentrations: [H2] = 0.322 M and [CH3
Annette [7]

Answer:

The equilibrium value of [CO] is 1.04 M

Explanation:

Chemical equilibrium is the state to which a spontaneously evolving  chemical system, in which a reversible chemical reaction takes place.  When this situation is reached, it is observed that the  concentrations of substances, both reagents and reaction products,  they remain constant over time. That is, the rate of reaction of reagents to products is the same as that of products to reagents.

Reagent concentrations  and products in equilibrium are related by the equilibrium constant Kc. Being:

aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} *[B]^{b} }

Then this constant Kces equals the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients between the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

In this case:

Kc=\frac{[CH_{3}OH ]}{[CO]*[H_{2} ]^{2} }

You know:

  • Kc= 14.5
  • [H₂]= 0.322 M
  • [CH₃OH] =1.56 M

Replacing:

14.5=\frac{1.56}{[CO]*0.322^{2} }

Solving:

[CO]=\frac{1.56}{14.5*0.322^{2} }

[CO]= 1.04 M

The equilibrium value of [CO] is 1.04 M

What does the group number of element 114 have to do with its stability?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Super-heavy elements like 114 usually only exist for fractions of a second. ... The physicists called these magic numbers the “island of stability”, because the elements with the numbers cluster together on the periodic table, flanked on all sides by ephemeral elements that dissipate in nanoseconds.
