Answer:

[HI] = 0.264M

Explanation:

Based on the equilibrium:

2HI(g) ⇄ H₂(g) + I₂(g)

It is possible to define Kc of the reaction as the ratio between concentration of products and reactants using coefficients of each compound, thus:

<em>Kc = 0.0156 = [H₂] [I₂] / [HI]²</em>

<em />

As initial concentration of HI is 0.660mol / 2.00L = <em>0.330M, </em>the equlibrium concentrations will be:

[HI] = 0.330M - 2X

[H₂] = X

[I₂] = X

<em>Where X is reaction coefficient.</em>

<em />

Replacing in Kc:

0.0156 = [X] [X] / [0.330M - 2X]²

0.0156 = X² / [0.1089 - 1.32X + 4X² ]

0.00169884 - 0.020592 X + 0.0624 X² = X²

0.00169884 - 0.020592 X - 0.9376 X² = 0

Solving for X:

X = - 0.055 → False solution, there is no negative concentrations

X = 0.0330 → Right solution.

Replacing in HI formula:

[HI] = 0.330M - 2×0.033M

<h3>[HI] = 0.264M</h3>

Which of these statements is not true about chemical reaction rates?
xeze [42]
Temperature can change a reaction rate because adding or taking away heat means energy is being added or taken away. When energy is added, the particles speed up, so there is a greater chance of the reactants colliding to form the products, which increases the reaction rate. When energy is taken away, the particles more slower, so they don't collide as easily, which slows down the reaction rate.

Therefore, the answer is D.
