Explanation:
Answer:
- Initial: forward rate > reverse rate
- Equilibrium: forward rate = reverse rate
Explanation:
2NO₂(g) → N₂O₄(g) Kc=4.7
The definition of <em>equilibrium</em> is when the forward rate and the reverse rate are <em>equal</em>.
Because in the initial state there's only NO₂, there's no possibility for the reverse reaction (from N₂O₄ to NO₂). Thus the forward rate will be larger than the reverse rate.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) refrigerant management regulations would exempt any refrigerant from venting problem when it determines that the refrigerant in an appliance do not pose a threat to the environment (surrounding) if released.
A refrigerant can be defined as any chemical substance that undergoes a phase change (liquid and gas) so as to enable the cooling and freezing of materials. They are typically used in air conditioners, refrigerators, water dispensers, etc.
In the United States of America, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is a governmental agency which was established by U.S Congress and it is saddled with the responsibility of overseeing all aspects of pollution, environmental clean up, degradation, pesticide use, contamination, and hazardous waste spills. Also, EPA research solutions, policy development, and enforcement of regulations through the resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
Simply stated, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the governmental agency set up to ensure that various industries, factories and people comply with laws and regulations concerning the environment.
In conclusion, appliances such as a refrigerator, air conditioner (AC), etc., whose refrigerants do not pose a threat (potentially cause damage) to the environment if released are typically exempted by the EPA's refrigerant management regulations.
