Answer : The value of K_{eq} is, 0.5 and \Delta G= positive.

Explanation :

The unimolecular reaction is:

A\rightarrow B

In unimolecular reaction, the starting material is 2 times to the product.

A=2B      .........(1)

As we know that:

K_{eq}=\frac{B}{A}     ...........(2)

Now substitute equation 1 in 2, we get:

K_{eq}=\frac{\frac{A}{2}}{A}

K_{eq}=0.5

Now we have to calculate the value of \Delta G^o at 298 K.

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K_{eq}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature = 298 K

K_{eq} = equilibrium constant = 0.5

Now put all the given values on the above formula, we get:

\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/mol.K)\times (298K)\ln (0.5)

\Delta G^o=1717.32J/mol

Thus, the value of \Delta G^o at 298 K is, 1717.32 J/mol

As we know that:

\Delta G= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Thus, the \Delta G= +ve. So, the reaction is non spontaneous.

When the stabilized state of an equilibrium system is altered, further chemical reactions begin until a new equilibrium is reach
Nezavi [6.7K]
The answer is a. True. This is also known as the Le Chatelier's principle or The Equilibrium Law which states that if a chemical reaction is at equilibrium and then experiences changes in the condition of the reaction such as changes in concentration, pressure, or temperature of products or reactants, the system will naturally shift to achieve a new equilibrium state.

What is right hand thumb rule ?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

In mathematics and physics, the right-hand rule is a common mnemonic for understanding orientation of axes in three-dimensional space. Most of the various left- and right-hand rules arise from the fact that the three axes of three-dimensional space have two possible orientations

Determine whether or not each mixture is a buffer. check all that apply. check all that apply. koh and nh3 hbr and nacl hcl and
erastova [34]
A buffer is usually composed of either:
- a weak base combined with its conjugate acid, or
- a weak acid combined with its conjugate base

Now, examining each of the choices:
1- KOH and NH3: since they are both bases, thus this mixture is not a buffer
2- HBr and NaCl: since HBr is a strong acid while NaCl is the salt of another different acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
3- HCl and HBr: these are both considered to be strong acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
4- HCHO2 and NaCHO2: as for HCH02, it is considered a weak base while NaCHO2 is considered its conjugate base, thus this mixture is a buffer
