Answer:
K = Ka/Kb
Explanation:
P(s) + (3/2) Cl₂(g) <-------> PCl₃(g) K = ?
P(s) + (5/2) Cl₂(g) <--------> PCl₅(g) Ka
PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) <---------> PCl₅(g) Kb
K = [PCl₃]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)
Ka = [PCl₅]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
Kb = [PCl₅]/ ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
Since [PCl₅] = [PCl₅]
From the Ka equation,
[PCl₅] = Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
From the Kb equation
[PCl₅] = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
Equating them
Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾) = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])
(Ka/Kb) = ([PCl₃] [Cl₂]) / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)
(Ka/Kb) = [PCl₃] / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)
Comparing this with the equation for the overall equilibrium constant
K = Ka/Kb

Answer:
a. Methanol remains the same
b. Methanol decreases
c. Methanol increases
d. Methanol remains the same
e. Methanol increases
Explanation:
Methanol is produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst as follows; 2H2+CO→CH3OH.
a) The presence or absence of a catalyst makes no difference on the equilibrium position of the system hence the methanol remains constant.
b) The amount of methanol decreases because the equilibrium position shifts towards the left and more reactants are formed since the reaction is exothermic.
c) If the volume is decreased, there will be more methanol in the system because the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.
d) Addition of helium gas has no effect on the equilibrium position since it does not participate in the reaction system.
e) if more CO is added the amount of methanol increases since the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.
Answer:
HCO₂/H₂O is not the acid-base conjugate pair.
Explanation:
<em>Acid and conjugate base pairs differ by an H+ ion.</em>
Neither HCO₂ nor H₂O has lost or gained protons.
The conjugate acid of H₂O is H₃O⁺
The conjugate base of HCO₃⁻ is CO₃²⁻
[A conjugate acid has one more H⁺ than its base]
