Which of dalton's postulates about atoms are inconsistent with later observations? do these inconsistencies mean that dalton was

wrong? is dalton's model still useful? explain?
Chemistry

Neporo4naja [7]2 years ago
6 0

1)  Dalton stated that atom is matter that can not be divided, but it is proved that the atom can be divided into subatomic particles  (electrons, protons and neutrons).

2) He stated that atoms of one element can not be changed into atoms of other  elements, but now that is possible by nuclear reactions.

Today we still use his postulate: Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form stable compounds, for example H₂O.

Consider this equilibrium reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas, occurring in a sealed flexible container. CO(g) + 3
wariber [46]

Answer:

More H2(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards products.</u>

CO is removed from the container : <u>Towards reactants.</u>

More CH4(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards reactants</u>

H2O(g) is removed from the container <u>: Towards products.</u>

The contents of the container are heated up. :<u> Towards the reactants.</u>

The contents of the container are cooled down : <u>Towards the products.</u>

The pressure inside the container is increased. :<u>Towards the products</u>

The container is stretched to increase the volume: <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

Explanation: :

CO(g) + 3 H2g) → CH4(g) + H2O(g)+ heat

There is released heat, so this reaction is exothermic

If the H2 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase.<u> Towards products.</u>

If the CO is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards reactants.</u>

If the CH4 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase. <u>Towards reactants</u>

If the H2O is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards products.</u>

If the temperature is increased, the system will reduce the amount of heat released. So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

This because the extra heat / energy must be used.

If the temperature is decreased, the system will produce more heat  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u>

This because more heat /energy needs to be produced to make up for the loss of heat (energy).

If the pressure is increased, the system will shift to the side with fewer moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u> An increase of pressure has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the volume.

If the volume is increased, this means the pressure is decreased, the system will shift to the side with most moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u> An increase of volume has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the pressure.

The boiling point of methanol is 64 7°C. Its melting point is -976°C. At room temperature (-25°C), methanol is in which state?
marissa [1.9K]

At -25 °C, methanol, whose boiling point is 64.7 °C and its melting point is -97.6 °C, is in the liquid state.

The melting point is the temperature at which a substance passes from solid to liquid. Below the melting point, a substance is in the solid state. Above the melting point, a substance is in the liquid or gas state.

The boiling point is the temperature at which a substance passes from liquid to gas. Below the boiling point, a substance is solid or liquid. Above the boiling point, a substance is in the gas state.

At -25 °C, methanol is above the melting point (-97.6 °C) and below the boiling point (64.7 °C). Thus, it is in the liquid state.

At -25 °C, methanol, whose boiling point is 64.7 °C and its melting point is -97.6 °C, is in the liquid state.

A 15.0 L rigid container was charged with 0.5 atm of Krypton gas and 1.5 atm of chlorine gas at 350 C. The krypton and chlorine
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The mass of krypton tetrachloride that can be produced assuming 100% yield is mathematically given as

molar mass=33.29g

<h3>What mass of krypton tetrachloride can be produced assuming 100% yield?</h3>

Generally, the equation for ideal gas is mathematically given as

PV=nRT

Therefore

n=(0.50)(15.)/0.082*623

n=0.147mol

Hence for clorine

n=0.441mol

Given the reaction

Kr+2cl2---->KrCL4

Hence

molar mass=225.60*0.147

molar mass=33.29g
