Chemistry

Alborosie2 years ago

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical reaction:

H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HI(g)

Catalyst is a chemical substance which alters the rate of the reaction and does not participate in the reaction. It does not effect the equilibrium position.

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

  • <u>Change in volume:</u>

Any change in volume during equilibrium is studied on the basis of change in moles of gaseous reactants and gaseous products.

When volume is decreased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction which produces fewer moles of gas and when volume is increased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction which produces more moles of gas.

  • <u>Change in pressure:</u>

Any change in pressure during equilibrium is studied on the basis of change in moles of gaseous reactants and gaseous products.

When pressure is decreased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction, which produces fewer moles of gas and when pressure is increased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction which produces more moles of gas.

Number of moles of gases on reactant side = [1 + 1] = 2

Number of moles of gases on product side = 2

Change in number of moles = 2 -2 = 0

As, number of moles on both the side of the reaction is same. This means there will be no effect on change in volume and change in pressure.

  • <u>Change in temperature:</u>

For an exothermic reaction, heat is released during a chemical reaction and is written on the product side.

A\rightleftharpoons B+\text{ heat}

As, heat is released during a chemical reaction. This means that temperature is decreased on the reactant side. If the temperature in the equilibrium is decreased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where, temperature is getting increased. Thus, the reaction will shift in right direction that is towards the product.

So, lowering the temperature of the system will shift the position of equilibrium.

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

How many grams of CrSO3 are in 2.4 moles of CrSO3
castortr0y [4]

Answer: 316.8 g CrSO3

Explanation: Solution:

2.4 moles CrSO3 x 132 g CrSO3 / 1 mole CrSO3 = 316.8 g CrSO4

The conversion factor is 1 mole of CrSO4 is equal to its molar mass which is 132 g CrSO3

The experiment above is repeated, but instead of extracting once with 6 mL the extraction is done three times with 2 mL of dichl
nevsk [136]

Complete Question

A student is extracting caffeine from water with dichloromethane. The K value is 4.6. If the student starts with a total of 40 mg of caffeine in 2 mL of water and extracts once with 6 mL of dichloromethane

The experiment above is repeated, but instead of extracting once with 6 mL the extraction is done three times with 2 mL of dichloromethane each time. How much caffeine will be in each dichloromethane extract?

Answer:

The mass of  caffeine extracted is  P =  39.8 \ mg

Explanation:

From the question above  we are told that

    The  K value is  K =  4.6

     The  mass of the caffeine is  m  = 40 mg

      The  volume of water is  V  = 2 mL

      The volume  of caffeine is  v_c =  2 mL

     The number of times the extraction was done is  n =  3

Generally the mass of  caffeine that will be  extracted is  

           P =  m  *  [\frac{V}{K *  v_c + V} ]^3

substituting values  

           P =  40   *  [\frac{2}{4.6 *  2 + 2} ]^3

           P =  39.8 \ mg

Complete the sentences to explain what’s happening at different portions of the heating curve.
Neporo4naja [7]

Particles of the substance have the most kinetic energy when the substance is(a)1. A gas. The part of the graph that represents where the substance has the least amount of potential energy is labeled(b)1. Solid.

Gas molecules have the highest average velocities among the three states of matter so gas has the highest kinetic energy. During freezing, a substance loses a lot of potential energy so solid has the least potential energy.
