Answer:

0.0055 mol of N2O5 will remay after 7 min.

Explanation:

The reaction follows a first-order.

Let the concentration of N2O5 after 7 min be y

Rate = Ky = change in concentration of N2O5/time

K is rate constant = 6.82×10^-3 s^-1

Initial concentration of N2O5 = number of moles/volume = 2.1×10^-2/1.8 = 0.0117 M

Change in concentration = 0.0117 - y

Time = 7 min = 7×60 = 420 s

6.82×10^-3y = 0.0117 - y/420

0.0117 - y = 420×6.82×10^-3y

0.0117 - y = 2.8644y

0.0117 = 2.8644y + y

0.0117 = 3.8644y

y = 0.0117/3.8644 = 0.00303 M

Number of moles of N2O5 left = y × volume = 0.00303 × 1.8 = 0.0055 mol (to 2 significant digits)

Ammonia will decompose into nitrogen and hydrogen at high temperature. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a tank

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The concentration equilibrium constant is $K_c = 14.39$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for this decomposition of ammonia is

$2 NH_3$ ↔ $N_2 + 3 H_2$

The initial concentration of ammonia is mathematically represented a

$[NH_3] = \frac{n_1}{V_1} = \frac{29}{75}$

$[NH_3] = 0.387 \ M$

The initial concentration of nitrogen gas is mathematically represented a

$[N_2] = \frac{n_2}{V_2}$

$[N_2] = 0.173 \ M$

So looking at the equation

Initially (Before reaction)

$NH_3 = 0.387 \ M$

$N_2 = 0 \ M$

$H_2 = 0 \ M$

During reaction(this is gotten from the reaction equation )

$NH_3 = -2 x$ (this implies that it losses two moles of concentration )

$N_2 = + x$ (this implies that it gains 1 moles)

$H_2 = +3 x$ (this implies that it gains 3 moles)

Note : x denotes concentration

At equilibrium

$NH_3 = 0.387 -2x$

$N_2 = x$

$H_2 = 3 x$

Now since

$[NH_3] = 0.387 \ M$

$x= 0.387 \ M$

$H_2 = 3 * 0.173$

$H_2 = 0.519 \ M$

$NH_3 = 0.387 -2(0.173)$

$NH_3 = 0.041 \ M$

Now the equilibrium constant is

$K_c = \frac{[N_2][H_2]^3}{[NH_3]^2}$

substituting values

$K_c = \frac{(0.173) (0.519)^3}{(0.041)^2}$

$K_c = 14.39$
