Determine the equilibrium constant, Kp, for the following reaction, by using the two reference equations below: 2 NO(g) + O2(g)
klio [65]

Answer:

Kp=3.07x10^6

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by knowing the given reference reactions, one could rearrange them as follows:

2 NO(g) \leftrightarrow N_2(g) + O_2(g); Kp_2 = \frac{1}{2.3 x 10^{-19}}=4.35x10^{18}

N_2(g) + 2O_2(g) \leftrightarrow 2NO_2(g);Kp_3=(8.4x10^{-7})^2=7.056x10^{-13}

Subsequently, to obtain the main reaction, we add the aforementioned reference rearranged reactions as shown below (just as reference):

2NO(g)+N_2(g)+2O_2\leftrightarrow 2NO_2(g)+N_2+O_2

Consequently, the equilibrium constant is computed as:

Kp=\frac{[N_2][O_2]}{[NO]^2} * \frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2][O_2]^2} =Kp_2*Kp_3=4.35x10^{18}*7.056x10^{-13}=3.07x10^6

Best regards.

The dissolution of 0.200 l of sulfur dioxide at 19 °c and 745 mmhg in water yields 500.0 ml of aqueous sulfurous acid. The solut
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Molarity=1.22\ M

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 745 mm Hg

Also, P (mm Hg) = P (atm) / 760

Pressure = 745 / 760 = 0.9803 atm

Temperature = 19 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (19 + 273.15) K = 292.15 K  

Volume = 0.200 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.9803 atm × 0.200 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 292.15 K  

⇒n = 0.008174 moles

From the reaction shown below:-

H_2SO_3+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_3+2H_2O

1 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2 moles of NaOH

0.008174 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2*0.008174 moles of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 0.016348 moles

Volume = 13.4 mL = 0.0134 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

So,

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Molarity=\frac{0.016348}{0.0134}\ M

Molarity=1.22\ M

Based on solubility rules what ions in water might interfere with the analysis of calcium ions by precipitation of calcium carbo
Pavlova-9 [17]
First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:

1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
    CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

2. Precipitation
    Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O

The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.

Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.

Why is cyanide ion negatively charged?
Bogdan [553]
The cyanide is CN^{-}
A carbon atom has 4 valance electrons and nitrogen has 5. Below is a Lewis-dot-structure of cyanide.
:N≡C.
The carbon atom is still one electron short of having a full octet and so it will seize another electron from almost anything, making the cyanide ion negative and whatever it took the electron from it now positive.

Which substance is a binary compound?
AysviL [449]
A binary compound is a compound that contain two different chemical elements in it. These compounds may be molecular or may also exist in other forms such as solid. In this case Barium and Beryllium are not binary compounds since they are independent elements, Calcium hydroxide is also not a binary compound since it has more than two chemical elements. Therefore,carbon dioxide is the binary compound since it contains two chemical elements ( carbon and oxygen)
