Answer:

Explanation:

The cations are positively charged ions and the anions are negatively charged ions.

Simple cations and anions are named:

Cations that are formed from metal atoms have the same name as metal. If a metal can form cations of different charges, the positive charge is indicated by a Roman number in parentheses after the name of the metal. Cations formed from non-metal atoms have names that end in -ium.

The names of monoatomic anions, as well as some polyatomic anions that do not contain oxygen, are formed by replacing the termination of the element's name with –ide.

Simple cations are formally called by their element names with a suffixed Roman numeral in parentheses to indicate its charge. A simple anion has a name that is the original elemental name with the final syllable changed to -ide.

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. 2CO2 (g) 2CO (g) + O2 (g) H° = -514 kJ Le Châtelier's principle predicts that th

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

C. at low temperature and low pressure.

Explanation:

Le Châtelier's principle states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.

For the reaction:

2CO₂(g) ⇄ 2CO(g) + O₂(g), ΔH = -514 kJ.

Effect of pressure:

When there is an increase in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with fewer moles of gas of the reaction. And when there is a decrease in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with more moles of gas of the reaction.

The reactants side (left) has 2.0 moles of gases and the products side (right) has 3.0 moles of gases.

So, decreasing the pressure will shift the reaction to the side with higher no. of moles of gas (right side, products), so the equilibrium partial pressure of CO (g) can be maximized at low pressure.

Effect of temperature:

The reaction is exothermic because the sign of ΔH is (negative).

So, we can write the reaction as:

2CO₂(g) ⇄ 2CO(g) + O₂(g) + heat.

Decreasing the temperature will decrease the concentration of the products side, so the reaction will be shifted to the right side to suppress the decrease in the temperature, so the equilibrium partial pressure of CO (g) can be maximized at low temperature.

So, the right choice is:

C. at low temperature and low pressure.

The graph shows the potential energy diagram for an unknown chemical change.

bazaltina [42]

Based on the energy usage shown by the graph, the best option for the chemical change represented is the combustion of iron.

<h3>What chemical change is shown by the graph?</h3>

The combustion of iron in oxygen leads to the formation of Iron (III) oxide in solid form.

For the combustion of iron to happen, a lot of heat has to be applied to the iron which is why the potential energy of reactants is high. As the reaction progresses, the energy needed reduces as iron (III) oxide is formed.
