The concentration of C29H60 in summer rainwater is 34 ppb. Find the molarity of this compound in nanomoles per liter (nM).
1 answer:
Answer: The concentration of C29H60 in nM per liter is 83,33 nM/liter
Explanation: Let's start from the ppb definition: ppb means parts per billion. In terms of concentracion measuring this means micrograms of solute per liter of solution.
The algebraic expression would be:
<em>ppb [=] micrograms of compound/liter of solution</em>
We can assume that the solvent is water. The solute is dissolved in water and both create the C29H60 solution.
For the exercise we have 34 ppb of C29H60, that means 34 micrograms of C29H60 in one liter of solution. So, since now, we have to convert the units from the initial data to the required answer.
The respective procedure is in a attached file.

Possible answers:
1) not at equilibrium and will remain in an unequilibrated state.
2) not at equilibrium and will shift to the left to achieve an equilibrium state.
3) not at equilibrium and will shift to the right to achieve an equilibrium state.
4) at equilibrium
Answer : The correct option is, (2) not at equilibrium and will shift to the left to achieve an equilibrium state.
Explanation:
Reaction quotient (Qc) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.
First we have to determine the value of reaction quotient (Qc).
The given balanced chemical reaction is,
The expression for reaction quotient will be :
In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get
Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.
There are 3 conditions:
When that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored.
When that means reactant > product. So, the reaction is product favored.
When that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium.
The given equilibrium constant value is,
From the above we conclude that, the that means reactant < product. So, the reaction is reactant favored that means reaction must shift to the reactant or left to be in equilibrium.
Hence, the correct option is, (2) not at equilibrium and will shift to the left to achieve an equilibrium state.
