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.

Discussion Questions 1. Given the equilibrium equation for a general reaction, A + B  C + D, explain what happens to the reacta

ANTONII [103]

Answer:The equilibrium constant for a given reaction is [concentration of products]/[concentration of reactants].

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant=[concentration of products]/[concentration of reactants]

The concentration of reactant molecules is maximum at time 0 and it decreases as the reaction proceeds, The concentration of product molecules increases.At equilibrium the concentration of reactants and products are equal.

All the changes would occur in accordance with the LeChateliers principle.

For the given reaction the following changes would occur:

a When CO is removed from the reaction mixture so the reaction would shift towards right that is in forward direction as we are decreasing the concentration of CO so the system would try to increase the concentration of CO and that can happen by more production of CO.

b Since the above reaction is an endothermic reaction so when we would be adding heat to the system that is when we would increase the temperature the reaction would shift forwards as more heat energy is absorbed by reactants to form more products.

c When more CO₂ is added so more amount of reactants are added to the system so the system would try to decrease the amount of reactants that is CO₂ and hence more amount of products would be formed.The reaction would shift in forward direction.

d Since this reaction is endothermic in nature so when we remove the heat from reaction hence even less amount of heat is present in the system and so the reaction shift in backward direction as the reaction cannot proceed without enough amount of heat.

Write an equation that shows the reaction between acetic acid and triethylamine (CH3CH2)3N. Draw all non-bonding lone electron p

Anni [7]

Answer:

-) Acid-base reaction

-) Carboxylic acid, alcohol, alkene and ketone

Explanation:

For the reaction between acetic acid and triethylamine, we will have an acid-base reaction. Therefore a salt would be produced in this case an "ammonium quaternary salt". Also, we have to remember that on this reaction the acid is the acetic acid and the base is the triethylamine. See figure 1

For the second question, we have to check the structure of Prostaglandin E1 in which we have the functional groups:

1) Carboxylic acid

2) Alcohol

3) Alkene

4) Ketone

See figure 2.

I hope it helps!

As technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories.

The advancement in technology allows scientists to explore more than previous scientists. Technology provides them with more tools to explore further. Technology can be used to prove or disprove old theories by uncovering more evidence. Fame has nothing to do with it, neither does excitement.
