Phosgene, a poisonous gas, when heated will decompose into carbon monoxide and chlorine in a reversible reaction: COCl2 (g) <

-----> CO (g) + Cl2 When 2.00 mol of phosgene is put into an empty 1.00 L flask and 395 ˚C and allowed to come to equilibrium, the final mixture contains 0.0398 mol of chlorine. Find Keq. Group of answer choices

Answer:

8.08 × 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

The initial concentration of phosgene is:

M = 2.00 mol / 1.00 L = 2.00 M

We can find the final concentrations using an ICE chart.

     COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

I       2.00            0            0

C        -x             +x           +x

E    2.00 -x          x             x

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂, x, is 0.0398 mol / 1.00 L = 0.0398 M.

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[COCl₂] = 2.00 -x = 1.96 M

[CO] = [Cl₂] = 0.0398 M

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [CO].[Cl₂]/[COCl₂]

Keq = (0.0398)²/1.96

Keq = 8.08 × 10⁻⁴

The following reaction does not proceed to a product: H2O + Cu --&gt; no reaction. Why is that?
Anettt [7]
I think the correct answer would be because copper has a lower activity than hydrogen and cannot replace the bonds in it. Substances that are not oxidizing do not react with copper since the redox potentials are very low. Hope this answers the question.

Why are mass and volume not properties of substances
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Extensive properties, such as mass and volume, depend on the amount of matter being measured. Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of the substance present. Physical properties can be measured without changing a substance's chemical identity

One beaker contains 19.93 mL, another contains 14.0 mL and a third contains 10.6 mL. What is the total volume of the three beake
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{44.5 mL}}

Explanation:

When adding or subtracting values, you must round your answer to the same "place" as the measurement with its last significant figure furthest to the left.  

That is, you round off to the same number of decimal places as the measurement with the fewest decimal places.

\begin{array}{r|r}19.9& \text{3 mL}\\14.0&\text{mL}\\10.6&\text{mL} \\\mathbf{44.5} &\textbf{3 mL}\\\end{array}

The measurements of 14.0 and 10.6 have one digit after the decimal point, so you round the sum to have only one digit to the right of the decimal.

The number to be dropped (3) is less than 5, so you drop it.

\text{The total volume of the three beakers is $\large \boxed{\textbf{44.5 mL}}$}
