Answer:

0.098 moles H₂S

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is

  • 2H₂(g) + S₂(g) ⇄ 2H₂S(g)  keq = 7.5

We can express the equilibrium constant as:

  • keq = [H₂S]² / [S₂] [H₂]² = 7.5

With the volume we can <u>calculate the equilibrium concentration of H₂</u>:

  • [H₂] = 0.072 mol / 2.0 L = 0.036 M

<em>The stoichiometric ratio</em> tells us that <u>the concentration of S₂ is half of the concentration of H₂</u>:

  • [S₂] = [H₂] / 2 = 0.036 M / 2 = 0.018 M

Now we <u>can calculate [H₂S]</u>:

  • 7.5 = [H₂S]² / (0.018*0.036²)
  • [H₂S] = 0.013 M

So 0.013 M is the concentration of H₂S <em>at equilibrium</em>.

  • This would amount to (0.013 M * 2.0 L) 0.026 moles of H₂S
  • The moles of H₂ at equilibrium are equal to the moles of H₂S that reacted.

Initial moles of H₂S - Moles of H₂S that reacted into H₂ = Moles of H₂S at equilibrium

Initial moles of H₂S - 0.072 mol = 0.026 mol

Initial moles of H₂S = 0.098 moles H₂S

guapka [62]

Answer:

Shape- square planar , hybridisation-sp3

Explanation:

Shape:

  1. VSPER theorey is used to determine both electron geometry and molecular geometry of a molecule.(PtCl4)2 molecular geometry is square planar
  2. Hybridisation:It undergoes sp3 hybridisation.since there are 2 unpaired electrons in this case, it is paramagnetic in nature

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
cluponka [151]
<span>C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5</span>

60 kg of fuel was completely burnt for an experiment. The amount of heat energy was found to be 180000KJ. Calculate calorific va
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

3000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.

It is given by:

C=\frac{Q}{m}

where

Q is the amount of heat released

m is the mass of the fuel

In this problem, we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel

Q=180,000 kJ is the amount of heat released

Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:

C=\frac{180,000}{60}=3000 kJ/kg
