Carbonyl fluoride, COF2, is an important intermediate used in the production of fluorine-containing compounds. For instance, it
lions [1.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The equilibrium concentration of COF_2 is 0.332 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial concentration of COF_2 = 2.00 M

The given chemical equation follows:

                2COF_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO_2(g)+CF_4(g)

<u>Initial:</u>          2.00

<u>At eqllm:</u>     2.00-2x          x      x

The expression of K_c for above equation follows:

K_c=\frac{[CO_2][CF_4]}{[COF_2]^2}

We are given:

K_c=6.30

Putting values in above expression, we get:

6.30=\frac{x\times x}{(2.00-2x)^2}\\\\x=0.834,1.25

Neglecting the value of x = 1.25 because equilibrium concentration of the reactant will becomes negative, which is not possible

So, equilibrium concentration of COF_2=(2.00-2x)=[2.00-(2\times 0.834)]=0.332M

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of COF_2 is 0.332 M

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the _________ group
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the <u>phosphate</u> group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the <u>hydroxyl</u> group attached to the <u>3'</u> carbon atom

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).

Weak noncovalent interactions:__________ a. do not include ionic interactions b. always involve water. c. can have a large cumul
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

c. can have a large cumulative effect

Explanation:

Noncovalent interactions between molecules are weaker than covalent interactions. Noncovalent interactions between molecules are of various types which  include van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions or ionic bonding.

van der Waals forces  are weak interactions found in all molecules. They include dipole-dipole interactions - formed due to the differences in the electronegativity of atoms - and the London dispersion forces.

Hydrogen Bonds  results when electrons are shared between hydrogen and a strongly electronegative atoms like fluorine, nitrogen, oxygen. The hydrogen acquires a partial positive charge while the electronegative atom acquires a partial negative. This results in attraction between hydrogen and neighboring electronegative molecules.

Ionic bonds result due to the attraction between groups with opposite electrical charges, for example in common salt between sodium and chloride ions.

Even though these noncovalent interactions are weak, cumulatively, they exert strong effect. For example, the high boiling point of water and the crystal structure of ice are due to hydrogen bonding.

A stable atom that has a large nucleus most likely contains
maria [59]

Answer:

3. Equal numbers of  protons and neutrons

Explanation:

The nucleus becomes unstable if the ratio of protons to neutrons is less than 1:1 or more than 1:1.5.

The most stable nucleus has a neutron proton ratio of 1:1 which means that they can not release a neutron or a proton to decay.

Nucleus 3 is therefore the most stable.

Which action would shift this reaction away from solid calcium fluoride and toward the dissolved ions? which action would shift
ANTONII [103]
Hello!

The chemical reaction for the dissolving of calcium fluoride is the following:

CaF₂(s) ⇄ Ca⁺²(aq) + 2F⁻(aq)

In this reaction, and according to Le Chatelier's principle, the action that would shift this reaction away from solid calcium fluoride and towards the dissolved ions is the removing of fluoride ions.

Le Chatelier's principle
states that in an equilibrium reaction, the system would shift in the opposite direction of the changes. If we remove fluoride ions from the system, it will shift towards the formation of more fluoride ions by dissolving more Calcium Fluoride to achieve equilibrium again.

Have a nice day!
