Answer:

D) The equilibrium lies far to the left

Explanation:

According to the law of mass action, the equilibrium constant K for the reaction at 373K can be calculated as follows:

K = $\frac{[CO][Cl_{2}]}{[COCl_{2}]}$ = 2.19×10^{-10}

([X] means = concentration of X)

This means that in the equilibrium the concentration of the reactant (that is in the denominator) will be much higher (around 10^{10} fold) than the concentrations of the products (that are in the numerator), and this means that the equilibrium lies far to the left (to the reactants side) as very small amount of product is being formed.

Answer:

5.83 mol.

Explanation:

From the balanced reaction:

2Al + 3Ag₂S → 6Ag + Al₂S₃,

It is clear that 2 mol of Al react with 3 mol of Ag₂S to produce 1 mol of Ag and 1 mol of Al₂S₃.

Al reacts with Ag₂S with (2: 3) molar ratio.

So, 2.27 mol of Al reacts completely with 3.4 mol of Ag₂S with (2: 3) molar ratio.

The limiting reactant is Ag₂S.

The excess "left over" reactant is Al.

The reamining moles of excess reactant "Al" = 8.1 mol - 2.27 mol = 5.83 mol.

Use the information below to explain why the atomic radius decreases down a group.

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.
