Answer:
Equilibrium constant is 0.0873
Explanation:
For the reaction:
A + B ⇄ C
Equilibrium constant is defined as:
K = [C] / [A] [B]
concentrations in equilibrium of each reactant are:
[A] = 10 - X
[B] = 5 - X
[C] = 15 + X
If concentration in equilibrium of B is 9, X is:
[B] = 5 - X = 9 → <em>X = -4 </em>
Replacing:
[A] = 10 - (-4) = 14
[B] = 5 - (-4) = 9
[C] = 15 + (-4) = 11
K = 11 / (14×9) = 0.0873
Thus, <em>equilibrium constant is 0.0873</em>
The statement which correctly describe the relationship between the reactants and the yield is this: 'the theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactants present'. The theoretical yields is the ideal maximum amount of a product that can be produced during a chemical reaction while the limiting reactant is the reactant that determines the maximum amount of product that can be formed.
Methionine is an amino acid and like some amino acid, it has a zwitterion form. A zwitterion form is a form of molecule showing separate positive and negative charges. The hydrogen from the carboxylic acid group will transfer to the amino group producing a negative charge at the carboxyl group and a positive charge at the amino group.
