the reaction is
2NO(g) + 2H2(g) <—> N2(g) + 2H2O (g)
Kc = [N2] [ H2O]^2 / [NO]^2 [ H2]^2
Given
moles of NO = 0.124 therefore [NO] = moles /volume = 0.124 /2 = 0.062
moles of H2 = 0.0240 , therefore [H2] = moles / volume = 0.0240 / 2 = 0.012
moles of N2 = 0.0380 , therefore [N2] = moles / volume = 0.0380 / 2 = 0.019
moles of H2O = 0.0276 , therefore [H2O] = moles / volume = 0.0276 / 2 = 0.0138
Kc = (0.019) ( 0.0138)^2 / (0.062)^2 ( 0.012)^2 = 6.54
Answer:
b) O₂
d) CH₄
Explanation:
In a chemical equation, the <u>reactants</u> are the substances that are written on the <u>left side</u>. The reactants react to produce the products. On the right side, the products are written.
The arrow => is used to separate the reactants from the products.
To the left of the arrow, you can see this written:
CH₄ + 2O₂
The plus sign + is used to separate each reactant.
In 2O₂ you can ignore the big 2 because it is a coefficient, which is written to balance the equation.
The reactants are CH₄ and O₂
A general equation for a combustion reaction would be expressed as follows:
CxHy + (x+y/2)O2 = xCO2 + y/2H2O
Propane would obviously would only have carbon and hydrogen in its structure. Assuming a complete combustion, all of the carbon atoms would go to carbon dioxide and all of the hydrogen atoms to water. To determine the empirical, we determine the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms present.
moles C = 2.461 g CO2 ( 1 mol / 44.01 g ) ( 1 mol C / 1 mol CO2 ) = 0.06 mol C
moles H = 1.442 g H2O ( 1 mol / 18.02 g ) ( 2 mol H / 1 mol H ) = 0.16 mol H
Then, we divide the smallest amount to the each mole of the atoms. We do as follows:
C = 0.06 / 0.06 = 1
H = 0.16 / 0.06 = 2.67
Then we multiply a number in order to obtain a whole number ratio between the atoms.
1 CH2.67
2 C2H5.34
3 C3H8 <-------- empirical formula
