The equilibrium constant for the reaction

Chemistry

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The equilibrium constant for the reaction

N₂O₄(g)⇌2NO₂ at 2°C is Kc = 2.0

If each yellow sphere represents 1 mol of N₂O₄(g) and each gray sphere 1 mol of NO₂ which of the following 1.0 L containers represents the equilibrium mixture at 2°C?

The image is attached below.

<u>Answer:</u> The system which represents the equilibrium having value of K_c=2.0 is system (b)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_c

For a general chemical reaction:

aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD

The expression for K_{c} is written as:

K_{c}=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

For the given chemical equation:

N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2

The expression of K_c for above equation follows:

K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}      .......(1)

We are given:

Volume of the container = 1.0 L

Value of K_c = 2.0

Molarity of the substance is calculated by using the equation:

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume}}

For the given images:

  • <u>For a:</u>

Number of Gray spheres = 8 moles

Number of yellow spheres = 4 moles

Putting values in expression 1, we get:

K_c=\frac{(8/1)^2}{(4/1)}\\\\K_c=16

  • <u>For b:</u>

Number of Gray spheres = 4 moles

Number of yellow spheres = 8 moles

Putting values in expression 1, we get:

K_c=\frac{(4/1)^2}{(8/1)}\\\\K_c=2

  • <u>For c:</u>

Number of Gray spheres = 6 moles

Number of yellow spheres = 6 moles

Putting values in expression 1, we get:

K_c=\frac{(6/1)^2}{(6/1)}\\\\K_c=6

  • <u>For d:</u>

Number of Gray spheres = 2 moles

Number of yellow spheres = 8 moles

Putting values in expression 1, we get:

K_c=\frac{(2/1)^2}{(8/1)}\\\\K_c=\frac{1}{2}

Hence, the system which represents the equilibrium having value of K_c=2.0 is system (b)

What does a bomb calorimeter do?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
It is a constant-volume type calorimeter that measures the heat of a particular reaction or measures the calorific value of the fuels. Bomb calorimeters are built in such a way that they can withstand the large pressure produced within the calorimeter due to the reaction or burning of fuel.

How much energy (joules) is needed to heat 250 grams of copper from 22 °C to 99 °C? The specific heat capacity (C) of copper is
Naddik [55]

Answer:

7430.5 Joules (7.4*10^4 Joules)

Explanation:

Q=mc∆T

where Q is energy in Joules.

Now m=250 g

c= 0.386 J/g°C

∆T = 99 - 22 = 77 °C

plugging the values in gives

Q=250*0.386*77=7430.5 Joules

(7.4*10^4 Joules, if 2 significant figures)

If one or more nucleotide pairs are deleted from a dna strand, this is known as a:_________
Leya [2.2K]

If one or more nucleotide pairs are deleted from a DNA strand, this is known as a frameshift mutation

<h3>Define Frameshift Mutation</h3>

Insertions or deletions in the genome that are not multiples of three nucleotides are referred to as frameshift mutations. They are a particular class of insertion-deletion (indel) alterations that are present in polypeptides' coding sequences. Here, there are no multiples of three in the number of nucleotides that are added to or subtracted from the coding sequence. They may result from really basic alterations like the insertion or deletion of a single nucleotide.

<h3>Frameshift mutations' effects</h3>

One of the most harmful modifications to a protein's coding sequence is a frameshift mutation. They are quite prone to produce non-functional proteins that frequently interfere with a cell's metabolic processes and result in significant alterations to polypeptide length and chemical makeup. Frameshift mutations can cause the mRNA to stop translating too soon and create an extended polypeptide.
