In a study of the conversion of methane to other fuels, a chemical engineer mixes gaseous methane and gaseous water in a 0.778 L

flask at 1,072 K. At equilibrium, the flask contains 0.206 mol of CO gas, 0.187 mol of H2 gas, and 0.187 mol of methane. What is the water concentration at equilibrium (Kc = 0.30 for this process at 1,072 K)? Enter to 4 decimal places. HINT: Look at sample problem 17.7 in the 8th ed Silberberg book. Write a balanced chemical equation. Write the Kc expression. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all the species given (moles/liter). Put values into Kc expression, solve for the unknown.

Answer:

the water concentration at equilibrium is

⇒ [ H2O(g) ] = 0.0510 mol/L

Explanation:

  • CH4(g) + H2O(g) ↔ CO(g) + 3H2(g)

∴ Kc = ( [ CO(g) ] * [ H2 ]³ ) / ( [ CH4(g) ] * [ H2O(g) ] ) = 0,30

  • equilibrium:

⇒ [ CO(g) ] = 0.206 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2648 mol/L

⇒ [ H2(g) ] = 0.187 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2404 mol/L

⇒ [ CH4(g) ] = 0.187 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2404 mol/L

replacing in Kc:

⇒ ((0.2648) * (0.2404)³) / ([ H2O(g) ] * 0.2404 ) = 0.30

⇒ 0.0721 [ H2O(g) ] = 3.679 E-3

⇒ [ H2O(g) ] = 0.0510 mol/L

Why does a 4 carbon linear alkane, butane c4h10, have two more hydrogens ?
Scilla [17]
Alkanes are hydrocarbons that only contain single bonds in them. A carbon can bond with up to 4 atoms, even with another carbon atom. So, in a C-C bond, 3 more H atoms can bond to each of the C atom. Generally, the chemical formula for alkanes is CₓH₂ₓ₊₂. So for butane, there are 4 C atoms. The corresponding H atoms are 2(4) + 2 = 10. That's why it's chemical formula is C₄H₁₀.

In bullet points: explain the difference between thermal energy, heat and temperature.
sergeinik [125]
  • Thermal Energy- is the energy that comes from heat. This heat is generated by the movement of tiny particles within an object. The faster these particles move, the more heat is generated.

  • Heat-energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. The transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects.

  • Temperature- is a measure of how hot or cold something is; specifically, a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object, which is a type of energy associated with motion.

If 71.5 moles of an ideal gas is at 5.03 atm at 6.80 °C, what is the volume of the gas?
meriva
Use the clapeyron equation:

T in kelvin : 6.80 + 273 => 279.8 K

R = 0.082 

n = 71.5 moles

P = 5.03 atm

Therefore:

P x V = n x R x T

5.03 x V = 71.5 x 0.082 x 279.8

5.03 x V = 1640.4674

V = 1640.4674 / 5.03

V = 326.13 L

hope ths helps!
