Answer:

Explanation:

2 HgCl₂ + C₂O₄²⁻   =  2 Cl⁻ + Hg₂Cl₂ + 2CO₂

1 )

Rate of reaction = k[HgCl_2]^m[C_2O_4^{-2}]^n

             [HgCl₂]        [C₂O₄²⁻ ]           Rate  

1 .              .124             .115               1.61 x 10⁻⁵

2 .             .248             .115             3.23 x 10⁻⁵

3 .              .124             .229              6.4 x 10⁻⁵

4 .              .248             .229            1.28 x 10⁻⁴

comparing 1 and 3 , when concentration of HgCl₂ remains constant and concentration of C₂O₄²⁻  becomes twice , rate becomes 4 times so rate is proportional to square of concentration of C₂O₄²⁻  .

Hence n = 2

comparing 1 and 2 , when concentration of HgCl₂ becomes twice  and concentration of C₂O₄²⁻  remains constant  , rate becomes 2 times so rate is proportional to simply  concentration of C₂O₄²⁻  .

Hence m = 1

Putting the data of  1 in the rate equation found

 1.61 x 10⁻⁵ = k x .124 x  .115²

k = 11.3 x 10⁻⁴ M⁻² s⁻¹

How many moles of \ce{Fe2O3}FeX 2 ​ OX 3 ​ will be produced from 27.0 \text{ g}27.0 g27, point, 0, start text, space, g, end tex
ira [324]

Answer : The number of moles of Fe_2O_3  produced will be, 0.241 moles.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Fe = 27.0 g

Molar mass of Fe = 56 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Fe.

\text{ Moles of }Fe=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Fe}{\text{ Molar mass of }Fe}=\frac{27.0g}{56g/mole}=0.482moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of Fe_2O_3

The balanced chemical reaction is,

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mole of Fe react to give 2 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 0.482 moles of Fe react to give \frac{0.482}{4}\times 2=0.241 moles of Fe_2O_3

Thus, the number of moles of Fe_2O_3  produced will be, 0.241 moles.

Equation for questions 1-4:
Karolina [17]

Answer:

5.625 moles of oxygen, O₂.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Al + 3O₂ —> 2Al₂O₃

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ required to react with 7.5 moles of aluminum, Al. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 7.5 moles of Al will react with = (7.5 × 3)/4 = 5.625 moles of O₂.

Thus, 5.625 moles of O₂ is needed for the reaction.

Given the equation representing a solution equilibrium: BaSO4(s) <—> Ba2+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq)
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The equilibrium shifts to the left, and the concentration of Ba2+(aq) decreases

Explanation:

Whenever a solution of an ionic substance comes into contact with another ionic compound with which it shares a common ion, the solubility of the ionic substance in solution decreases significantly.

In this case, both BaSO4 and Na2SO4 both possess the SO4^2- anion. Hence SO4^2- anion is the common ion. Given the equilibrium;

BaSO4(s) <—> Ba2+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq), addition of Na2SO4 will decrease the solubility of BaSO4 due to the presence of a common SO4^2- anion compared to pure water.

This implies that the equilibrium will shift to the left, (more undissoctiated BaSO4) hence decreasing the Ba^2+(aq) concentration.
