Answer:

The right choice is K(eq) = ([CO₂]) / [O₂]

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium

For a system undergoing a reversible reaction described by the general chemical equation

a A + b B → x X + n N

An equilibrium constant can be expressed as following

K(eq) = ([X]ˣ*[N]ⁿ) / ([A]ᵃ*[B]ᵇ)

where [] is the equilibrium concentration of each component.

and the concentration of solid is conventionally considered as 1

in your example: 

The reversible reaction

C ₍s₎ + O₂ ₍g₎ ↔ CO₂ ₍g₎

taking in consideration that C is a solid and the concentration of solid is conventionally considered as 1

So, the equilibrium constant for this reversible reaction can be expressed as following

K(eq) = ([CO₂]) / [O₂]

∴ The right choice is K(eq) = ([CO₂]) / [O₂]

Delta S reaction= Delta S products- Delta S reactants

don't forget to mulitiply by coefficients

also

here is a really slow way to do it

you know the moles of gas increased

so Delta S is positive

so its B or D

then just do the units digit to see which one match up

Which of the following would NOT diffuse through the plasma membrane by means of simple diffusion?1 oxygen2 glucose3 a steroid h

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Option 2= Glucose

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made up of two phospholipid layers and each contain phosphate head and fatty acid or lipid tails. the head is present between the outer and inner boundaries and tail is present in between. The small non- polar molecules can pass the membrane through simple diffusion. This lipid tail restrict the passage of polar molecules including water soluble substances like glucose. However, transmembranes are present that allow the molecules to inter that are blocked by the tails.

Facilitated diffusion:

it is a type of diffusion in which caries protein without using the cellular energy shuttle the molecules to the cell membrane. Glucose is bind on the carrier protein ,change the shape and transport it from one to another side of membrane. In order to absorb the glucose red blood cells use this kind of diffusion.

Primary active transport:

The cells that are present along small intestine use this type of transport to pump the glucose inside the cell. The primary active transport require energy to transport the glucose inside.

Secondary active transport:

It is another method of transport of glucose into the cell. This method can not use ATP but it is based on concentration gradient of the sodium that provide electro chemical energy for the glucose transport.

Why Is Any Chemical Reaction always Balanced? Give reasons and Explain the Easiest way to solve the Balancing Problems in Chemic

erastova [34]

Answer:

The chemical equation needs to be balanced so that it follows the law of conservation of mass. A balanced chemical equation occurs when the number of the different atoms of elements in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side.

Suppose you have just added 100 ml of a solution containing 0.5 mol of acetic acid per liter to 400 ml of 0.5 m naoh. what is th

Tpy6a [65]

$pH = 13.5$

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide completely ionizes in water to produce sodium ions and hydroxide ions. Hydroxide ions are in excess and neutralize all acetic acid added by the following ionic equation:

$\text{HAc} + \text{OH}^{-} \to \text{Ac}^{-} + \text{H}_2\text{O}$

The mixture would contain

$0.4 \times 0.5 - 0.1 \times 0.5 = 0.15 \; \text{mol}$ of $\text{OH}^{-}$ and
$0.1 \times 0.5 = 0.05 \; \text{mol}$ of $\text{Ac}^{-}$

if $\text{Ac}^{-}$ undergoes no hydrolysis; the solution is of volume $0.1 + 0.4 = 0.5 \; \text{L}$ after the mixing. The two species would thus be of concentration $0.30 \; \text{mol} \cdot \text{L}^{-1}$ and $0.10 \; \text{mol} \cdot \text{L}^{-1}$ , respectively.

Construct a RICE table for the hydrolysis of $\text{Ac}^{-}$ under a basic aqueous environment (with a negligible hydronium concentration.)

$\begin{array}{cccccccc} \text{R} & \text{Ac}^{-}(aq) &+ & \text{H}_2\text{O}(aq) & \leftrightharpoons & \text{HAc}(aq) & + & \text{OH}^{-} (aq)\\ \text{I} & 0.10 \; \text{M} & & & & & &0.30 \; \text{M}\\ \text{C} & -x \; \text{M}& & & & +x \; \text{M}& & +x \; \text{M} \\ \text{E} & (0.10 - x) \; \text{M} & & & & x \; \text{M} & & (0.30 +x) \; \text{M} \end{array}$

The question supplied the acid dissociation constant $pK_a$ for acetic acid $\text{HAc}$ ; however, calculating the hydrolysis equilibrium taking place in this basic mixture requires the base dissociation constant $pK_b$ for its conjugate base, $\text{Ac}^{-}$ . The following relationship relates the two quantities:

$pK_{b} (\text{Ac}^{-}) = pK_{w} - pK_{a}( \text{HAc})$

... where the water self-ionization constant $pK_w \approx 14$ under standard conditions. Thus $pK_{b} (\text{Ac}^{-}) = 14 - 4.7 = 9.3$ . By the definition of $pK_b$ :

$[\text{HAc} (aq)] \cdot [\text{OH}^{-} (aq)] / [\text{Ac}^{-} (aq) ] = K_b = 10^{-pK_{b}}$

$x \cdot (0.3 + x) / (0.1 - x) = 10^{-9.3}$

$x = 1.67 \times 10^{-10} \; \text{M} \approx 0 \; \text{M}$

$[\text{OH}^{-}] = 0.30 +x \approx 0.30 \; \text{M}$

$pH = pK_{w} - pOH = 14 + \text{log}_{10}[\text{OH}^{-}] = 14 + \text{log}_{10}{0.30} = 13.5$
