Answer: The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is K_a\times K_b

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios.

a) P(s)+\frac{3}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)

K_a=\frac{[PCl_3]}{[Cl_2]^{\frac{3}{2}}}

b) PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_5(g)

K_b=\frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]\times [PCl_3]}

For overall reaction on adding a and b we get c

c) P(s)+\frac{5}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_5(g)

K_c=\frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]^\frac{5}{2}}

K_c=K_a\times K_b=\frac{[PCl_3]}{[Cl_2]^{\frac{3}{2}}}\times \frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]\times [PCl_3]}

The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is K_a\times K_b

You need 4.0 ounces of a steroid ointment. if there are 16 oz in 1 lb, how many grams of ointment does the pharmacist need to pr
Bond [772]

The given units are the units of masses which are interconvertable.

It is given that:

1 lb = 16 oz

Now, converting kg to lb:

Since, 1 kg = 2.20462 lb

So, \frac{0.0625 lb}{1 oz}\times \frac{1 kg}{2.20462 lb}

Now converting kg to g:

Since, 1 kg = 1000 g

So, \frac{0.0625 lb}{1 oz}\times \frac{1 kg}{2.20462 lb}\times \frac{1000 g}{1 kg} = 28.349 \frac{g}{oz}

For 4 oz:

28.349\frac{g}{oz} \times 4 oz = 113.396 g

Thus, 113.396 g of ointment needed to be prepared by the pharmacist.

Which of the following solutions is a good buffer system?A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M NaClA solution that is 0.10 M
patriot [66]

Answer:

A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN

Explanation:

  • A good buffer system contains a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt.
  • In this case; A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN, would make a good buffer system.
  • HCN is a weak acid, while LiCN is a salt of the weak acid, that is, CN- conjugate of the acid.

1. How many milliliters of 10.0 M HNO 3 are needed to prepare 0.350 L of 0.400 M solution?
tatyana61 [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

14 milliliters

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • 10.0 M HNO₃

Prepared solution;

  • Volume of solution as 0.350 L
  • Molarity as 0.40 M

We are required to determine the initial volume of HNO₃

  • We are going to use the dilution formula;
  • The dilution formula is;

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

Rearranging the formula;

V₁ = M₂V₂ ÷ M₁

    =(0.40 M × 0.350 L) ÷ 10.0 M

   = 0.014 L

But, 1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore,

Volume = 14 mL

Thus, the volume of 10.0 M HNO₃ is 14 mL
