The missing factor is 1 5/8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let us consider the missing factor has 'x'

The given expression is 4 1/2 - x = 2 7/8

<u>To find x :</u>

The first step is to bring all the constant terms on on side and x on the other side,

⇒ 4 1/2 - 2 7/8 = x

Now, the numbers are in improper fraction (mixed fraction). So you have to convert them into proper fraction.

To convert the improper fraction 4 1/2 into proper fraction,

Multiply the denominator 2 with 4 and the result 8 is added with the numerator 1.

⇒ 4 1/2 = 9/2.

To convert the improper fraction 2 7/8 into proper fraction,

Multiply the denominator 8 with 2 and the result 16 is added with the numerator 7.

⇒ 2 7/8 = 23/8.

Now replace them in the given expression. The expression becomes as :

⇒ (9/2) - (23/8) = x

Cross multiply 2 and 8,

⇒ (72 - 46) / 16 = x

⇒ 26 / 16 = x

⇒ 13/8 = x

The x value is 13/8. You have to convert it into mixed fraction (since the question is given in the form of mixed fraction).

<u>To convert into mixed fraction,</u>

Divide 13 by 8 and write them in the form of Quotient (Reminder / Divisor).

⇒ 13 ÷ 8

⇒ 1 (quotient)

⇒ 5 (remainder)

The divisor is 8.

Therefore, x = 13/8 can be written as 1 5/8.

The missing factor is 1 5/8.

If the rate of decrease for the partial pressure of N2H4 in a closed reaction vessel is 76 torr/h , what is the rate of change f
fiasKO [112]

The reaction is missing and it's ;

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

It asks for the total pressure too.

Answer:

A) Rate of change for NH3 = 152 torr/h

B) The total pressure in the vessel will remain the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

N2H4 + H2 ---> 2NH3

1 mole of N2H4 yields 2 moles of NH3.

From the question, the rate given for N2H4 is 76 torr/h.

Thus, The rate of change for NH3 will be = 2 x 76 = 152 torr/h

Now, on the reaction side, 1 mole of N2H4 reacts with 1 mole of H2. So we have 2 moles on the left hand side.

While on the product side, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

So the total pressure will remain the same because for every 2 moles on the reaction side, 2 moles are gotten on the product side.
