A sample of PCl5(g) was placed in an otherwise empty flask at an initial pressure of 0.500 atm and a temperature above 500 K. Ov

er time the PCl5 decomposed to PCl3(g) and Cl2(g): PCl5(g) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) At equilibrium the pressure of PCl5 in the flask was found to be 0.150 atm. Calculate the value of Kp for this reaction at this temperature. Kp =

Answer:

Kp = 0.81666

Explanation:

Pressure of PCl₅ = 0.500 atm

Considering the ICE table for the equilibrium as:

                     PCl₅ (g)      ⇔          PCl₃ (g) +       Cl₂ (g)

t = o               0.500

t = eq                -x                             x                      x

--------------------------------------------- --------------------------

Moles at eq: 0.500-x                       x                      x

       

Given the pressure of PCl₅ at equilibrium = 0.150 atm

Thus, 0.500 - x = 0.150

x = 0.350 atm

The expression for the equilibrium constant is:

K_p=\frac {P_{PCl_3}P_{[Cl_2}}{P_{PCl_5}}  

So,

K_p=\frac{x^2}{0.500-x}  

x = 0.350 atm

Thus,

K_p=\frac{{0.350}^2}{0.500-0.350}  

<u>Thus, Kp = 0.81666</u>

Which of the following is the balanced equation for P + O2 → P2O5? Question 3 options: A) 4P + O2 → 2P2O B) P + 5O2 → 2P2O5 C) 4
Luden [163]

Given equation:

P + O2 → P2O5

In order for the equation to be balanced, the stoichiometry of the atoms of one kind on the reactant side must be equal to that on the product

Reactants                                            Products

P = 1                                                       P = 2

O = 2                                                     O = 5

The balanced equation would be:

4P + 5O2 → 2P2O5

Reactants                                            Products

P = 4                                                      P = 4

O = 10                                                    O = 10

Ans: D)

Here is a more complex redox reaction involving the dichromate ion in acidic solution: 3N O 2 − + 8H + + C r 2 O 7 2− → 3N O 3 −
Fantom [35]

Answer:

NO2- is the reducing agent.

Cr2O7_2- is the oxidizing agent.

H+ is neither

Explanation:

Reduction is the gain in electron. A chemical specie that undergoes reduction is called the oxidizing agent.

Oxidation is simply the loss in electrons. A chemical specie that undergoes oxidation is called the reducing agent.

Let us look at the species.

The first specie is the NO2-. In this specie, the oxidation number of nitrogen changed from +3 to +5 in NO3-. Thus we can see that there is more loss of electron to have caused an increase in the oxidation number positively. This shows an oxidation. Hence, NO2- is the reducing agent.

Let us look at the chromium. We can see that the oxidation number of chromium changed from +7 to +3.

Now we can see that it is a decrease and hence, it is a gain of electron and thus it is reduction. This means the first chromium specie is the oxidizing agent.

The hydrogen ion is simply placed there to balance the ions and hence it is neither the oxidizing nor the reducing agent.

Wind : swirls :: chemical bond : ___________.
drek231 [11]
Options are as follow,

1)  Flashes
2)  Skips
3)  Stretches
<span>4)  Jumps
</span>
Answer:
            Option-3 (stretches) is the correct answer.

Explanation:
                    The best analogy which suits a chemical bond is the stretching of chemical bonds. Remaining verbs doesn't explain the property of chemical bond. For example, the chemical bonds did not flashes, neither they skip or jump.
                    The chemical bonds can stretch and bend. As predicted from IR spectroscopy, different bonds can stretch and bend at different energies. The stretching of bonds require more energy while, bending of bonds require less energy.
