Consider the isomerization of butane with equilibrium constant is 2.5 .The system is originally at equilibrium with :
[butane]=1.0 M , [isobutane]=2.5 M
If 0.50 mol/L of butane is added to the original equilibrium mixture and the system shifts to a new equilibrium position, what is the equilibrium concentration of each gas?
Answer:
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane] = 1.14 M
[isobutane] = 2.86 M
Explanation:
Butane ⇄ Isobutane
At equilibrium
1.0 M 2.5 M
After addition of 0.50 M of butane:
(1.0 + 0.50) M -
After equilibrium reestablishes:
(1.50-x)M (2.5+x)
The equilibrium expression will wriiten as:
![K_c=\frac{[Isobutane]}{[Butane]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_c%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BIsobutane%5D%7D%7B%5BButane%5D%7D)

x = 0.36 M
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane]= (1.50-x) = 1.50 M - 0.36M = 1.14 M
[isobutane]= (2.5+x) = 2.50 M + 0.36 M = 2.86 M
This movement is known as convection or convection currents. This occurs due to the fact that warmer fluid is of lower density than colder fluid. This causes warmer fluid to rise and colder fluid to sink. This creates circulatory currents within the body of the fluid.
Answer:
They have fewer hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon chain than alkanes
Explanation:
Let's compare ethane (an alkane) with ethene (an alkene) and ethyne (an alkyne):
- Ethane's formula is C₂H₄, while ethene's is C₂H₄ and ethyne's C₂H₂.
As you can see, alkenes and alkynes have fewer hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon chain due to them having multiple bonds between the carbon atoms.
Moles of H⁺ released by each mole of acid = 3
Moles of H⁺ released = 3
Moles of OH⁻ released = 1.75
Moles of H⁺ remaining = 3 - 1.75 = 1.25 mol/dm³
pH = -log[H⁺]
pH = -log(1.25)
pH = -0.1
