At 400 K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction Br2 (g) + Cl2 (g) ↔ 2BrCl (g) is Kp = 7.0. A closed vessel at 400 K is charg

ed with 1.00 atm of Br2 (g), 1.00 atm of Cl2 (g), and 2.00 atm of BrCl (g). Use Q to determine which of the statements below is true.
(a)-The equilibrium partial pressure of BrCl (g) will be greater than 2.00 atm.
(b)-The equilibrium partial pressure of Br2 will be greater than 1.00 atm.
(c)-At equilibrium, the total pressure in the vessel will be less than the initial total pressure.
(d)-The reaction will go to completion since there are equal amounts of Br2 and Cl2.
(e)-The equilibrium partial pressures of Br2, Cl2, and BrCl will be the same as the initial values.

Answer:

(a) The equilibrium partial pressure of BrCl (g) will be greater than 2.00 atm.

Explanation:

Q is the coefficient of the reaction and is calculated the same of the way of the equilibrium constant, but using the concentrations or partial pressures in any moment of the reaction, so, for the reaction given:

Q = (pBrCl)²/(pBr₂*pCl₂)

Q = 2²/(1x1)

Q = 4

As Q < Kp, the reaction didn't reach the equilibrium, and the value must increase. As we can notice by the equation, Q is directly proportional to the partial pressure of BrCl, so it must increase, and be greater than 2.00 atm in the equilibrium.

The partial pressures of Br₂ and Cl₂ must decrease, so they will be smaller than 1.00 atm. And the total pressure must not change because of the stoichiometry of the reaction: there are 2 moles of the gas reactants for 2 moles of the gas products.

Because is a reversible reaction, it will not go to completion, it will reach an equilibrium, and as discussed above, the partial pressures will change.

14. An enzyme-catalyzed reaction was carried out with the substrate concentration initially a thousand times greater than the Km
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

27 min

Explanation:

The kinetics of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction can be determined by the equation of Michaelis-Menten:

v = \frac{vmax[S]}{Km + [S]}

Where v is the velocity in the equilibrium, vmax is the maximum velocity of the reaction (which is directed proportionally of the amount of the enzyme), Km is the equilibrium constant and [S] is the concentration of the substrate.

So, initially, the velocity of the formation of the substrate is 12μmol/9min = 1.33 μmol/min

If Km is a thousand times smaller then [S], then

v = vmax[S]/[S]

v = vmax

vmax = 1.33 μmol/min

For the new experiment, with one-third of the enzyme, the maximum velocity must be one third too, so:

vmax = 1.33/3 = 0.443 μmol/min

Km will still be much smaller then [S], so

v = vmax

v = 0.443 μmol/min

For 12 μmol formed:

0.443 = 12/t

t = 12/0.443

t = 27 min

Why is a thermos considered a (mostly) closed system? Question 3 options: different types of liquids stay hot thermoses come in
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Different types of hot or cold items can be stored in a thermos and power cannot enter or exit the system when the thermos lid is tightly closed

Explanation:

Closed systems are those that do not interact or do not exchange energy with the environment that surrounds them, that is why internal temperatures and conditions are maintained.

The human body is an open system, that is, it would be the opposite of the thermos since we constantly exchange energy with the environment through sweating, emission of gases, urine, feces, and the ingestion of food.

Thermoses are systems specially created to maintain a medium, it will be maintained if its lid is hermetically closed to prevent heat leakage or entry in situations of cold fluids.
