Answer:

A. 30cm³

Explanation:

Based on the chemical reaction:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

<em>1 mol of calcium carbonate reacts with 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mol of CO₂</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must convert the mass of each reactant to moles. With the moles we can find limiting reactant and the moles of CO₂ produced. Using PV = nRT we can find the volume of the gas:

<em>Moles CaCO₃ -Molar mass: 100.09g/mol-</em>

1.00g * (1mol / 100.09g) = 9.991x10⁻³ moles

<em>Moles HCl:</em>

50cm³ = 0.0500dm³ * (0.05 mol / dm³) = 2.5x10⁻³ moles

For a complete reaction of 2.5x10⁻³ moles HCl there are necessaries:

2.5x10⁻³ moles HCl * (1mol CaCO₃ / 2mol HCl) = 1.25x10⁻³ moles CaCO₃. As there are 9.991x10⁻³ moles, HCl is limiting reactant.

The moles produced of CO₂ are:

2.5x10⁻³ moles HCl * (1mol CO₂ / 2mol HCl) = 1.25x10⁻³ moles CO₂

Using PV = nRT

<em>Where P is pressure = 1atm assuming STP</em>

<em>V volume in L</em>

<em>n moles = 1.25x10⁻³ moles CO₂</em>

<em>R gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK</em>

<em>T = 273.15K at STP</em>

<em />

V = nRT / P

1.25x10⁻³ moles * 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K / 1atm = V

0.028L = V

28cm³ = V

As 28cm³ ≈ 30cm³

Right option is:

<h3>A. 30cm³</h3>

Consider the following equilibrium systems: A⇌2B ΔH o =20.0 kJ/mol Reaction 1 A+B⇌C ΔH o =−5.4 kJ/mol Reaction 2 A⇌B ΔH o =0.0 k
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Reaction 1: Kc increases

Reaction 2: Kc decreases

Reaction 3: The is no change

Explanation:

Let us consider the following reactions:

Reaction 1: A ⇌ 2B ΔH° = 20.0 kJ/mol

Reaction 2: A + B ⇌ C ΔH° = −5.4 kJ/mol

Reaction 3: 2A⇌ B ΔH° = 0.0 kJ/mol

To predict what will happen when the temperature is raised we need to take into account Le Chatelier Principle: when a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation, it will shift its equilibrium to counteract such perturbation. This means that <em>if the temperature is raised (perturbation), the system will react to lower the temperature.</em>

Reaction 1 is endothermic (ΔH° > 0). If the temperature is raised the system will favor the forward reaction to absorb heat and lower the temperature, thus increasing the value of Kc.

Reaction 2 is exothermic (ΔH° < 0). If the temperature is raised the system will favor the reverse reaction to absorb heat and lower the temperature, thus decreasing the value of Kc.

Reaction 3 is not endothermic nor exothermic (ΔH° = 0) so an increase in the temperature will have no effect on the equilibrium.

Dos moléculas de Clorato de Potasio en estado sólido, al aplicarle calor se descompone en dos moléculas de Cloruro de Potasio en
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

2KClO3 (s) -------> 2KCl (s) + 3O2 (g)

Explanation:

Una ecuación de reacción química es una representación simbólica de lo que sucede en un recipiente de reacción.

Al escribir la ecuación de reacción química para una reacción particular, se utilizan los símbolos químicos de todas las especies involucradas.

Por la reacción. en el cual dos moléculas de Clorato de Potasio en estado sólido, al aplicar calor se descompone en dos moléculas de Cloruro de Potasio en estado sólido y tres moléculas diatómicas de Oxígeno en estado gaseoso, la ecuación de reacción se escribe así;

2KClO3 (s) -------> 2KCl (s) + 3O2 (g)

La regla para escribir ecuaciones de reacción química balanceada es que el número de átomos de cada elemento en el lado derecho de la ecuación de reacción debe ser el mismo que el número b de átomos del mismo elemento en el lado izquierdo de la ecuación de reacción.

Si realizamos un conteo de átomos simple en ambos lados de la ecuación de reacción, la regla se cumple

How much energy is released when 22.4g of CH4 is burned?
solniwko [45]

The combustion of methane, CH4, releases 890.4 kJ/mol. That is, when one mole of methane is burned, 890.4 kJ are given off to the surroundings. This means that the products have 890.4 kJ less than the reactants.
