Answer:

B. ΔHreaction = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products

Explanation:

Using Hess's law, it is possible to sum ΔH of several related reactions to find ΔH of a particular reaction.

Having in mind Hess's law, ΔH°f is defined as the change in enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of substance from its constituent elements (That is, pure elements, mono or diatomics, that have a ΔH° = 0).

For example, in ΔH°f of H₂O, the equation is:

H₂(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → H₂O(g)

The constituent elements with ΔH°f = 0 are H₂(g) and O₂(g).

Now, using Hess's law, you can sum the ΔH°f of substance in a reaction as, for example:

NaOH + HCl → H₂O + NaCl. ΔHr

The ΔH°f for each substance in the reaction is:

NaOH: Na + 1/2H₂ + 1/2O₂ → NaOH (1)

HCl: 1/2H₂ + 1/2Cl₂ → HCl (2)

H₂O: H₂ + 1/2O₂ → H₂O (3)

NaCl: Na + 1/2Cl₂ → NaCl (4)

The algebraic sum of (3) + (4) is -(ΔH°f reactants):

H₂ + 1/2O₂ + Na + 1/2Cl₂ → NaCl + H₂O ΔH°f reactants

This reaction - {(1)+(2)} ΔH°f products

NaOH + HCl → H₂O + NaCl.

ΔHr = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products

In the example, we obtain this relationship that can be expanded for all reactions. Thus, right answer is:

<h3>B. ΔHreaction = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products</h3>

What is the maximum concentration of Ag⁺ that can be added to a 0.00750 M solution of Na₂CO₃ before a precipitate will form? (Ks

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{1.64\times 10^{-5}\text{ mol/L }}$

Explanation:

Ag₂CO₃(s) ⇌2Ag⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq); Ksp = 8.10 × 10⁻¹²

2x 0.007 50 + x

$K_{sp} =\text{[Ag$^{+}$]$^{2}$[CO$_{3}^{2-}$]} = (2x)^{2}\times 0.00750 = 8.10 \times 10^{-12}\\0.0300x^{2} = 8.10 \times 10^{-12}\\x^{2} = 2.70 \times 10^{-10}\\x = \sqrt{2.70 \times 10^{-10}} = \mathbf{1.64\times 10^{5}} \textbf{ mol/L}\\\text{The maximum concentration of Ag$^{+}$ is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{1.64\times 10^{-5}}\textbf{ mol/L }}$}$

Answer:

The system is not in equilibrium and will evolve left to right to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient Qc is defined for a generic reaction:

aA + bB → cC + dD

$Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are not those of equilibrium, but other given concentrations

Chemical Equilibrium is the state in which the direct and indirect reaction have the same speed and is represented by a constant Kc, which for a generic reaction as shown above, is defined:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are those of equilibrium.

This constant is equal to the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Comparing Qc with Kc allows to find out the status and evolution of the system:

If the reaction quotient is equal to the equilibrium constant, Qc = Kc, the system has reached chemical equilibrium.

If the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, Qc> Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. In this case the direct reaction predominates and there will be more product present than what is obtained at equilibrium. Therefore, this product is used to promote the reverse reaction and reach equilibrium. The system will then evolve to the left to increase the reagent concentration.

If the reaction quotient is less than the equilibrium constant, Qc <Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. The concentration of the reagents is higher than it would be at equilibrium, so the direct reaction predominates. Thus, the system will evolve to the right to increase the concentration of products.

In this case:

$Q=\frac{[So_{3}] ^{2} }{[SO_{2} ]^{2}* [O_{2}] }$

$Q=\frac{10^{2} }{0.10^{2} *0.10}$

Q=100,000

100,000 < 4,300,000 (4.3*10⁶)

Q < Kc

The system is not in equilibrium and will evolve left to right to reach equilibrium.
