The reaction 2 a → b c has a kc of 0.2. the reaction is commenced with initial concentrations [a] = 0.2 m, [b] = 0.2 m and [c] =

LuckyWell [14K]

Kc = [b]*[c]/([a]^2) = (0.2 M)^2/(0.2 M)^2 = 1.0
To achieve equilibrium, Kc must be equal to 0.2, therefore Kc must decrease, so the concentrations of b and c must decrease and the concentration of a must increase, meaning the reaction will proceed toward the formation of a.

Which of these elements could gain one electron to form an ionic bond with potassium explain why

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

<h3>Chlorine </h3>

It has 7 electrons in it last shell. it will gain one electron to complete its octet and become Cl-. The ionic bond of chlorine form with potassium is Kcl ( potassium chloride)

Phosphorus has 5 electrons in its last shell it need 3 more electron to stable .

Sulphur has 6 electron. it needs 2 electrons

Argon is already stable as it has 8 electrons in its last shell it will not gain or loose any electrons

Calculate ΔHo for the following reaction ussing the given bond dissociation energiesCH4(g) + 2O2(g) --> CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)BOND

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The ΔH° for the following reaction is -794 kJ, hence exothermic reaction,

Explanation:

$CH_4(g) + 2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g) + 2H_2O(g) ,$ ΔH° = ?

We are given with:

$\Delta H_{O-O}=142 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{O=O}=498 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{H-O}=459 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{C-H}=411 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{C-O}=358 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{C=O}=799 kJ/mol$

ΔH° =

(Energies required to break bonds on reactant side) - (Energies released on formation of bonds on product side)

$\Delta H^o=(1 mol\times 4\times \Delta H_{C-H}+2 mol\times 1\times \Delta H_{O=O})-(1 mol\times 2\times \Delta H_{C=O}+2 mol\times 2\times\Delta H_{H-O})$
