At 900 K the following reaction has Kp=0.345: 2SO2(g)+O2(g)ââ2SO3(g) In an equilibrium mixture the partial pressures of SO2 and
rjkz [21]

Answer: 1.58\times 10^{-3}atm

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each term raised to its stochiometric coefficients.

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

               2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2SO_3(g)       The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

K_p=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(p_{SO_2})^2(p_{O_2})}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

0.345=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(0.125)^2(0.470)}

p_{SO_3}=1.58\times 10^{-3}atm

Thus the equilibrium partial pressure of SO_3 in the mixture is 1.58\times 10^{-3}atm

Marysya12 [62]
A change in pressure will affect the equilibrium position of the reaction if one or more of the reactants or products are in the gaseous phase.

Le Chatelier's principle states that whenever a change is brought about to a system under chemical equilibrium, the equilibrium shifts in a manner to reverse this change. So if the pressure of a reaction mixture is increased, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with the lower number of molecules, and if the pressure is reduced, the equilibrium will shift to the side with the greater number of molecules.

Describe how light is emitted from an atom. A) As protons absorb energy they travel from the nucleus through the atom emitting l
vovangra [49]

Answer is: D) Light is emitted from an atom as an electron falls from an excited state to the ground state releasing a photon.

Electrons can jump from one energy level to another, absorbing or emitting electromagnetic radiation with a frequency ν (energy difference of the levels).

When electron jump from higher to lower energy level (shell), it emitting (releasing) energy.

For example, when the electron changes from n=4 (fouth shell) to n=2 (second shell), the photons are emitted.

Albert Einstein (1879-1955) proposed that a beam of light is a collection of discrete wave packets (photons) with energy hν, where h is Planck constant and ν is frequency.

The photons have a characteristic energy proportional to the frequency of the light.

Minimum frequency or the threshold frequency is energy below which no photoelectrons are emitted.  

Above the minimum frequency, energy depends on the frequency of the light, not on the intensity of the light.

What is Chemical Bonding?<br>Explain please.​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Chemical bonds are how atoms, and even molecules join together.

Explanation:

There are two main types of primary chemical bonds. While secondary links relate to molecules, primary ties are atom to atom. This answer explains basic primary bonds only.

One must comprehend what a valence shell is before I proceed. The outer electron orbital of an atom is known as the valence shell. Most of the time (except from hydrogen), atoms desire to have 8 electrons in their valence shell, thus they form bonds with other atoms to accomplish this.

<em>All bonds result in a new chemically different molecule. Now, the two types are:</em>

  1. Covalent: When two atoms combine their electrons to fill their valence shells. The atoms are joined together by this "sharing."
  2. Ionic: When one atom <em>transfers</em> an electron to another atom in order to fulfill the valence electron requirement. Because electrons have a negative charge, the atom that <em>produced </em>them gains a positive charge as a result of losing its negative charge. The atom that received the electron therefore acquires a negative charge. Because opposing charges attract, it seems sense that the charged atoms bind as a result.
