Water running dish washer

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Wasteful use of water means using water unnecessarily or without any need.

So, when we take a shower rather than a bath then it means we are using water for bathing and not wasting it.

Watering the garden with recycled water is also not wasting of water as we are reusing the used water.

Running dishwashers before they are completely full is a wastage of water because unless the dishwashers are not completely full the water will flow out and it is a wastage of water.

When we replace high-flow shower heads with low-flow shower heads then it means we are minimizing the flow of water and it is a conservation of water.

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options running dishwashers before they are completely full is the most wasteful use of water.

Some SbCl5 is allowed to dissociate into SbCl3 and Cl2 at 521 K. At equilibrium, [SbCl5] = 0.195 M, and [SbCl3] = [Cl2] = 6.98×1
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a) The equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

b) The new equilibrium concentrations after reestablishment of the equilibrium :

[SbCl_5]=(0.370-x) M=(0.370-0.0233) M=0.3467 M

[SbCl_3]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

[Cl_2]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

Explanation:

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

a) Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

On increase in amount of reactant

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

If the reactant is increased, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where more product formation is taking place. As the number of moles of SbCl_5 is  increasing .So, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

b)

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

Concentration of SbCl_5  = 0.195 M

Concentration of SbCl_3  = 6.98\times 10^{-2} M

Concentration of Cl_2  = 6.98\times 10^{-2} M

On adding more [SbCl_5 to 0.370 M at equilibrium :

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

Initially

0.370 M         6.98\times 10^{-2}M    

At equilibrium:

(0.370-x)M   (6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M  

The equilibrium constant of the reaction  = K_c

K_c=2.50\times 10^{-2}

The equilibrium expression is given as:

K_c=\frac{[SbCl_3][Cl_2]}{[SbCl_5]}

2.50\times 10^{-2}=\frac{(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M\times (6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M}{(0.370-x) M}

On solving for x:

x = 0.0233 M

The new equilibrium concentrations after reestablishment of the equilibrium :

[SbCl_5]=(0.370-x) M=(0.370-0.0233) M=0.3467 M

[SbCl_3]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

[Cl_2]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

Given 700 ml of oxygen at 7 ºC and 106.6 kPa pressure, what volume does it take at 27ºC and 66.6 kPa pressure
o-na [289]

Answer:

The volume is 1.2L

Explanation:

Initial volume (V1) = 700mL = 0.7L

Initial temperature (T1) = 7°C = (7 + 273.15)K = 280.15K

Initial pressure = 106.6kPa = 106600Pa

Final temperature (T2) = 27°C = (27 + 273.15)K = 300.15K

Final pressure (P2) = 66.6kPa = 66600Pa

Final volume (V2) = ?

To solve this question, we need to use combined gas equation which is a combination of Boyle's law, Charles Law and pressure law.

(P1 × V1) / T1 = (P2 × V2) / T2

solve for V2 by making it the subject of formula,

P1 × V1 × T2 = P2 × V2 × T1

V2 = (P1 × V1 × T2) / (P2 × T1)

V2 = (106600 × 0.7 × 300.15) / (66600 × 280.15)

V2 = 22397193 / 18657990

V2 = 1.2L

The final volume of the gas is 1.2L

Which of the following is not an example of a renewable resource?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The answer is C. Coil

Explanation:

Water is a renewable resource. So is sunlight. Coil is not. I know because it is a fossil fuel. Coil takes millions of years to form in the earth. Therefore, it is not a renewable resource.

At 25 ∘C the reaction CaCrO4(s)←→Ca2+(aq)+CrO2−4(aq) has an equilibrium constant Kc=7.1×10−4. What is the equilibrium concentrat
Nitella [24]

Answer:

2.67 × 10⁻²

Explanation:

Equation for the reaction is expressed as:

CaCrO₄(s)    ⇄      Ca₂⁺(aq)         +        CrO₂⁻⁴(aq)

Given that:

Kc=7.1×10⁻⁴

Kc= [Ca^{2+}][CrO^{2-}_4]

Kc= [x][x]

Kc= [x²]

7.1×10⁻⁴ =  [x²]

x = \sqrt{7.1*10^{-4}}

x = 0.0267

x = 2.67*10^{-2}
