What is the balanced equation for KOH+CO2—>K2CO3+H2O

insens350 [35]

The balanced equation :

2KOH+CO₂⇒K₂CO₃+H₂O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:

1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.

2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product

3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1

Reaction

KOH+CO₂⇒K₂CO₃+H₂O

give coeffiecient

aKOH+bCO₂⇒K₂CO₃+cH₂O

make equation

K, left=a, right=2⇒a=2

H, left=a, right=2c⇒a=2c⇒2=2c⇒c=1

O, left=a+2b, right=3+c⇒a+2b=3+c⇒2+2b=3+1⇒2b=2⇒b=1

the equation becomes :

2KOH+CO₂⇒K₂CO₃+H₂O

An ideal gas (C}R), flowing at 4 kmol/h, expands isothermally at 475 Kfrom 100 to 50 kPa through a rigid device. If the power pr

Zina [86]

<u>Answer:</u> The rate of heat flow is 3.038 kW and the rate of lost work is 1.038 kW.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

$C_p=\frac{7}{2}R\\\\T=475K\\P_1=100kPa\\P_2=50kPa$

Rate of flow of ideal gas , n = 4 kmol/hr = $\frac{4\times 1000mol}{3600s}=1.11mol/s$ (Conversion factors used: 1 kmol = 1000 mol; 1 hr = 3600 s)

Power produced = 2000 W = 2 kW (Conversion factor: 1 kW = 1000 W)

We know that:

$\Delta U=0$ (For isothermal process)

So, by applying first law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U=\Delta q-\Delta W$

$\Delta q=\Delta W$ .......(1)

Now, calculating the work done for isothermal process, we use the equation:

$\Delta W=nRT\ln (\frac{P_1}{P_2})$

where,

$\Delta W$ = change in work done

n = number of moles = 1.11 mol/s

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature = 475 K

$P_1$ = initial pressure = 100 kPa

$P_2$ = final pressure = 50 kPa

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta W=1.11mol/s\times 8.314J\times 475K\times \ln (\frac{100}{50})\\\\\Delta W=3038.45J/s=3.038kJ/s=3.038kW$

Calculating the heat flow, we use equation 1, we get:

[ex]\Delta q=3.038kW[/tex]

Now, calculating the rate of lost work, we use the equation:

$\text{Rate of lost work}=\Delta W-\text{Power produced}\\\\\text{Rate of lost work}=(3.038-2)kW\\\text{Rate of lost work}=1.038kW$

Hence, the rate of heat flow is 3.038 kW and the rate of lost work is 1.038 kW.
