Answer:

0.54 mole

Explanation:

                                     CH3COOH    CH3CH2OH   CH3COOCH2CH3    H2O​

Initial concentration   1.0 mole         1.0 mole                0 mole                  1.0mol

Change                          - x                   - x                      + x                          + x  

Equilibrium                   (1.0 - x)          (1.0 - x)                   x                       (1.0 + x)

K = [CH3COOCH2CH3]*[H2O​]/[CH3COOH]*[CH3CH2OH]

x*(1.0+x)/(1.0-x)(1.0-x) = 4.0

x+x²=4*(1-x)²

x+x² = 4(1² - 2x + x²)

x + x² = 4 - 8x + 4x²

4 - 8x + 4x²- x² - x= 0

3x² - 9x + 4 = 0

x=2.5 , x=0.54

2.5 mole of acid cannot be esterified, because there is only 1.0 mole of acid,

so answer is 0.54 mole.

Keq for the reaction below is 2400. If the initial conditions of the reaction are a 1.0 L flask that contains 0.024 mol NO (g),
podryga [215]

Answer:

The answer to your question is it is not at equilibrium, it will move to the products.

Explanation:

Data

Keq = 2400

Volume = 1 L

moles of NO = 0.024

moles of N₂ = 2

moles of O₂ = 2.6

Process

1.- Determine the concentration of reactants and products

[NO] = 0.024 / 1 = 0.024

[N₂] = 2/1 = 2

[O₂] = 2.6/ 1= 2.6

2.- Balanced chemical reaction

                     N₂ + O₂    ⇒   2NO

3.- Write the equation for the equilibrium of this reaction

                     Keq = [NO]²/[N₂][O₂]

- Substitution

                    Keq = [0.024]² / [2][2.6]

-Simplification

                    Keq = 0.000576 / 5.2

-Result

                    Keq = 1.11 x 10⁻⁴

Conclusion

It is not at equilibrium, it will move to the products because the experimental Keq was lower than the Keq theoretical-

                         1.11 x 10⁻⁴ < 2400
