A 0.055 mol sample of formaldehyde vapor, CH2O, was placed in a heated 500 mL vessel and some of it decomposed. The reaction is

CH2O(g) H2(g) + CO(g) At equilibrium, the CH2O(g) concentration was 0.051 mol L-1. Calculate the value of Kc for this reaction?

Answer:

Kc for this reaction is 0.06825

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles formaldehyde CH2O = 0.055 moles

Volume = 500 mL = 0.500 L

At equilibrium, the CH2O(g) concentration = 0.051 mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

CH2O  <=>  H2 + CO

Step 3: Calculate the initial concentrations

Concentration = moles / volume

[CH2O] = 0.055 moles . 0.500 L

[CH2O] = 0.11 M

[H2] = 0M

[CO] = 0M

Step 4: The concentration at the equilibrium

[CH2O] = 0.11 - X M = 0.051 M

[H2] = XM

[CO] = XM

[CH2O] = 0.11 - X M = 0.051 M

X = 0.11 - 0.051 = 0.059

[H2] = XM = 0.059 M

[CO] = XM = 0.059 M

Step 5: Calculate Kc

Kc = [H2][CO]/[CHO]

Kc = (0.059 * 0.059) / 0.051

Kc = 0.06825

Kc for this reaction is 0.06825

What best describes the conditions to becoming a fossil
Ede4ka [16]
Hello

I don't quite understand the question your asking and if there is any answers provided but I will still give you mine.


Fossils are formed in a number of different ways, but most are formed when a plant or animal dies in a watery environment and is buried in mud and silt. Soft tissues quickly decompose leaving the hard bones or shells behind. Over time sediment builds over the top and hardens into rock.


Hope this helps!!
Have a nice day!!

Describe the orbital diagram of an atom with eight electrons. Explain how this orbital diagram demonstrates Hund's rule. PLEASE
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The orbital notations shows the sequence of filling electrons into the orbitals of sublevels. This filling is based on some certain principles. For an atom with 16 electrons, the orbital diagram is shown below:  1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴ The maximum number of electrons in each sublevel of the orbitals are: 2 electrons for s-sublevel with one orbital

                 6 electrons for p-sublevel with three orbital

                 10 electrons for d-sublevel with five orbital

                 14 electrons for f-sublevel with seven orbital

According to the Aufbau's principle, sublevels with lower energy are filled before those with higher energy.

                           1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d etc

Pauli's exclusion principle shows that no two electrons can have the same set of values for the four quantum numbers. Simply, no two electrons can spin in the same direction. Hund's rule states that electrons go into degenerate orbitals of sub-levles(s,p,d and f) singly before pairing commence. This rule shows that in each energy level, as the electron goes into the degenerate orbitals, they fill it one by one before they begin to pair up. As we know, each degenerate orbital can only accomodate 2 electrons. From the orbital diagram 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴, the 3p sublevel has 3 orbitals. In each of the orbitals, two electrons would occupy them to give a maximum capacity of 6. But the sublevel has just 4 electrons. Based on Hund's rule, an electron will go into each of the 3 orbitals first. The remaining electron will now pair with the first degenerate orbital. This makes a total of 4 electrons.
