Answer:

Keq = 0.053

7.3 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the following isomerization reaction.

glucose 6‑phosphate ⇄ glucose 1 - phosphate

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[G6P] = 0.19 M

[G1P] = 0.01 M

The concentration equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [G1P] / [G6P]

Keq = 0.01 / 0.19

Keq = 0.053

We can find the standard free energy change, ΔG°, of the reaction mixture using the following expression.

ΔG° = -R × T × lnKeq

ΔG° = -8.314 J/mol.K × 298 K × ln0.053

ΔG° = 7.3 × 10³ J/mol = 7.3 kJ/mol

When 1.5 grams of magnesium burns, how many grams of magnesium oxide will be formed?

SashulF [63]

The balanced chemical reaction for this would be written as:

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO

We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant given to calculate for the amount of magnesium oxide that is produced. We do as follows:

1.5 g Mg (1 mol / 24.31 g) ( 2 mol MgO / 2 mol Mg ) (40.30 g /1 mol ) = 2.49 g MgO produced

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

$2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal$

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of individual elements present on product side.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

$NH_3(g)+N_2O(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+H_2O(g)+105kcal$

This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of atoms of individual elements are not balanced.

In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 2 is put before the $NH_3$ , the coefficient 3 is put before the $N_2O\text{ and }H_2O$ and the coefficient 4 is put before the $N_2$ .
