Answer:

[Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.26 M

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) ⇋ PCl₅(g)

Kc = 91

So let's analyse, all the process:

                PCl₃(g)        +        Cl₂(g)     ⇋        PCl₅(g)

Initially     0.24 M                 1.50M                 0.12 M

React           x                           x                         x

Some amount of compound has reacted during the process.

In equilibrium we have

              0.24 - x                  1.50 - x                  0.12 + x

As initially we have moles of product, in equilibrium we have to sum them.

Let's make the expression for Kc

Kc = [PCl₅] / [Cl₂] . [PCl₃]

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.24 - x) ( 1.50 - x)

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²)          

91 (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²) = (0.12 + x)

32.76 - 158.34x + 91x² = 0.12 +x

32.64 - 159.34x + 91x² = 0

This a quadratic function:

a = 91; b= -159.34; c = 32.64

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

Solution 1 = 1.5

Solution 2 = 0.23 (This is our value)

So [Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.50 - 0.23 = 1.26 M

Artyom0805 [142]
Use the ideal gas equation PV=nRT. You can compare before and after using P1V1/n1T1=P2V2/n2T2. Since the number of moles remains constant you can disregard moles from the equation and use pressure, volume and temp. Make sure your pressure is converted to atmospheres, your volume is in liters, and your temperature is in kelvins.

Do protons determine isotopes
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Protons determine the type of element it is which the number of protons.

Isotopes are determined by the same elements with the same amount of protons, but different number of neutrons.

A block has a mass of 25 grams and a volume of 24.5 cm3 what is the<br> density of the block?
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1.02 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass of block = 25 g

volume = 24.5 cm³

The density of the block is

density =  \frac{25}{24.5}  \\  = 1.020408163...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.02 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
