An unbalanced chemical equation for the reaction of boron fluoride with lithium sulfite is shown below.

Chemistry
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

6

Explanation:

You have the unbalanced chemical reaction:

BF3 + Li2SO3 ⇒ B2(SO3)3 + LiF

Knowing that there are 2 atoms of boron in the products, we need to adjust that element putting 2 as coefficient of BF3.

2BF3 + Li2SO3 ⇒ B2(SO3)3 + LiF

Then, we need to balance fluor. There are 6 atoms of F in the reactants, for that reason, we write 6 in the lithium fluoride.

2BF3 + Li2SO3 ⇒ B2(SO3)3 + 6LiF

Finally, sulfur and oxygen have to be adjusted. 3 before lithium sulfite is enough to balance the chemical reaction.

2BF3 + 3Li2SO3 ⇒ B2(SO3)3 + 6LiF

Choose whether the statements about oil sands are true or false. The viscosity of bitumen is about 100 times greater than the vi
Alexxx [7]

The First 2 statements stated above were false whereas the third one is a true statement.

Explanation:

  • The viscosity of bitumen is about 100 times greater than the viscosity of water - False

Reason - The viscosity of bitumen is about not 100 times greater than the viscosity of water, it is actually 100, 000 times greater.

  • Oil from oil sand deposits is only obtained by first heating the sands at high temperatures is False.

Reason- Oil from oil sand deposits is not obtained by first heating the sands at high temperatures but by using steams

  • Oil sands contain sand, water, and light crude oil is true.

For the decomposition of A to B and C, A(s)⇌B(g)+C(g) how will the reaction respond to each of the following changes at equilibr
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a. No change.    

b. The equilibrium will shift to the right.

c. No change

d. No change

e.  The equilibrium will shift to the left

f.  The equilibrium will shift to the right      

Explanation:

We are going to solve this question by making use of Le Chatelier´s principle which states that any change in a system at equilibrium will react in such a way as to attain qeuilibrium again by changing the equilibrium concentrations attaining   Keq  again.

The equilibrium constant  for  A(s)⇌B(g)+C(g)  

Keq = Kp = pB x pC

where K is the equilibrium constant ( Kp in this case ) and pB and pC are the partial pressures of the gases. ( Note A is not in the expression since it is a solid )

We also use  Q which has the same form as Kp but denotes the system is not at equilibrium:

Q = p´B x p´C where pB´ and pC´ are the pressures not at equilibrium.

a.  double the concentrations of Q which has the same form as Kp but : products and then double the container volume

Effectively we have not change the equilibrium pressures since we know pressure is inversely proportional to volume.

Initially the system will decrease the partial pressures of B and C by a half:

Q = pB´x pC´     ( where pB´and pC´are the changed pressures )

Q = (2 pB ) x (2 pC) = 4 (pB x PC) = 4 Kp  ⇒ Kp = Q/4

But then when we double the volume ,the sistem will react to  double the pressures of A and B. Therefore there is no change.

b.  double the container volume

From part a we know the system will double the pressures of B and C by shifting to the right ( product ) side since the change  reduced the pressures by a half :

Q =  pB´x pC´  = (  1/2 pB ) x ( 1/2 pC )  =  1/4 pB x pC  = 1/4 Kp

c. add more A

There is no change in the partial pressures of B and C since the solid A does not influence the value of kp

d. doubling the  concentration of B and halve the concentration of C

Doubling the concentrantion doubles  the pressure which we can deduce from pV = n RT = c RT ( c= n/V ), and likewise halving the concentration halves the pressure. Thus, since we are doubling the concentration of B and halving that of C, there is no net change in the new equilibrium:

Q =  pB´x pC´  = ( 2 pB ) x ( 1/2 pC ) = K

e.  double the concentrations of both products

We learned that doubling the concentration doubles the pressure so:

Q =  pB´x pC´   = ( 2 pB ) x ( 2 pC ) = 4 Kp

Therefore, the system wil reduce by a half the pressures of B and C by producing more solid A to reach equilibrium again shifting it to the left.

f.  double the concentrations of both products and then quadruple the container volume

We saw from part e that doubling the concentration doubles the pressures, but here afterward we are going to quadruple the container volume thus reducing the pressure by a fourth:

Q =  pB´x pC´   = ( 2 pB/ 4 ) x (2 pC / 4) = 4/16  Kp = 1/4 Kp

So the system will increase the partial pressures of B and C by a factor of four, that is it will double the partial pressures of B and C shifting the equilibrium to the right.

If you do not see it think that double the concentration and then quadrupling the volume is the same net effect as halving the volume.

What is absolute zero? A) The temperature at which the particles of matter are at their lowest energy points. B) The temperature
Alja [10]

Answer:

A) The temperature at which the particles of matter are at their lowest energy points.

Explanation:

Absolute temperature refers to the lowest  possible temperature. At this state,  no heat energy remains in the substance; the energy of the particles are at their lowest energy points.
