Nitric oxide, an important pollutant in air, is formed from the elements nitrogen and oxygen at high temperatures, such as those

obtained when gasoline burns in an automobile engine. At 2000 oC, the K for the following reaction is 0.01.
N2 (g) + O2 (g) « 2 NO (g)

Predict the direction in which the system will move to reach equilibrium at 2000 oC if 0.4 moles of nitrogen and 0.1 moles of oxygen and 0.08 moles of NO are placed in a 1.0 L container. Hint: Calculate Q.

Answer:

Q is 0.5 and K is 0.01, therefore K is less than Q.

the system will proceed in the reverse direction, thereby converting products into reactants. converting Nitric oxide to form oxygen and nitrogen.

Explanation:

Given,

N2 (g) + O2 (g) « 2 NO (g)

K = 0.01

heated temperature = 2000 ⁰C

N2 moles =0.4

O2 moles =0.1

2NO moles = 0.08

Volume of container = 1L

Q is the reaction quotient  of the equilibrium equation. it is use to determined which direction the system will move to by comparing it with the K value.

Q can be calculated by multiplication of mass of reactant divide by mass of product

Q =\frac{ [N2] *[O2}{2NO}

the mass of the chemicals are in mole, there is need to convert them to moles/litre

therefore,

for N₂ : 0.4 mole per 1L container = 0.4 mol/L = 0.4M

for O₂ : 0.1 mole per 1L container = 0.1 mol/L = 0.1M

for 2NO : 0.08mole per 1L container = 0.08 mol/L = 0.08M

Q =\frac{ [N2] *[O2}{2NO} = (0.4*0.1)/0.08 = 0.5

finally, we are going to compare the value of Q with K

Note that:

if K>Q , the reaction will proceed forward, converting reactants into product.

if K<Q , the reaction will proceed backward, converting products into reactants.

if K=Q , the system of reaction is already in equilibrium.

since, Q is 0.5 and K is 0.01, therefore K is less than Q.

the system will proceed in the reverse direction, thereby converting products into reactants. converting Nitric oxide to form oxygen and nitrogen.

Answer:

The amount of heat absorbed is <u>5.183889 kJ</u>  .

Explanation:

In conversion of water to ice it rejects some heat while in conversion of ice to water it absorbs heat which is called latent heat which is given as 6.02 kJ/mol.

The amount of ice given is 15.5 g.

Converting it to moles as the latent heat is given in per moles:

\frac{given\\weight \\ (in\\grams)}{molecular\\weight\\(in\\grams)}

Molecular mass of Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O) is 1 u and 16 u respectively.

Molecular mass of water is 18 g ( H_{2} O ⇒  2*1+16=18 ).

mole = 15.5/18 ≈ 0.8611 moles

Therefore the amount of heat absorbed by 15.5 g of ice ( 0.8611 moles) = <em>Latent heat * moles </em>

Heat absorbed = 6.02*0.8611

             = 6.02*(15.5/18)

             ≈  5.183889 kJ

How may a substance be tested to determine whether or not it is an element
yaroslaw [1]

Always remember that a compound can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions. While elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions. You can do a flame test and spectrum analysis to determine whether a solid material is an element or a compound. Check the boiling and/or melting point, color or density. Also check the solid material’s reaction with oxygen, hydrogen, calcium, or various acids. Examine and study its physical chemistry. The element(s) that may be present may be identified by checking the absorption edges from an x-ray spectrum.
