Answer:
- Initial: forward rate > reverse rate
- Equilibrium: forward rate = reverse rate
Explanation:
2NO₂(g) → N₂O₄(g) Kc=4.7
The definition of <em>equilibrium</em> is when the forward rate and the reverse rate are <em>equal</em>.
Because in the initial state there's only NO₂, there's no possibility for the reverse reaction (from N₂O₄ to NO₂). Thus the forward rate will be larger than the reverse rate.
Answer:
a. 5.9 × 10⁻³ M/s
b. 0.012 M/s
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction.
2 N₂O(g) → 2 N₂(g) + O₂(g)
a.
Time (t): 12.0 s
Δn(O₂): 1.7 × 10⁻² mol
Volume (V): 0.240 L
We can find the average rate of the reaction over this time interval using the following expression.
r = Δn(O₂) / V × t
r = 1.7 × 10⁻² mol / 0.240 L × 12.0 s
r = 5.9 × 10⁻³ M/s
b. The molar ratio of N₂O to O₂ is 2:1. The rate of change of N₂O is:
5.9 × 10⁻³ mol O₂/L.s × (2 mol N₂O/1 mol O₂) = 0.012 M/s
Use the equation for density :
Density = mass / volume
Density = 120 / 480
Density = 0.25
Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are found in both animal and plant cells but are much larger in plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive. They can even store waste products so the rest of the cell is protected from contamination.
