If a reaction mixture contains only N2O and NO2 at partial pressures of 1.0 atm each, the reaction will be spontaneous until som
e NO forms in the mixture. What temperature is required to make the reaction spontaneous under standard conditions?
1 answer:
Answer:
Temperature required = 923K
Explanation:
The question is incomplete as there are some details that has to be given. details like the values of the standard enthalpies and entropies of the reactants and product as this is needed to calculate the actual value of the standard enthalpies and standard entropies of the reaction. I was able to get those values from literature and then calculated what needs to be calculated.
From there, I was able to use the equation that shows the relationship between, gibb's free energy, enthalpy, entropy and temperature. The necessary mathematical manipulation were done and the values were plugged in to get the temperature required to make the reaction spontaneous.
A few notes on the Gibb's free energy.
The Gibb's free energy also referred to as the gibb's function represented with letter G. it is the amount of useful work obtained from a system at constant temperature and pressure. The standard gibb's free energy on the other hand is a state function represented as Delta-G, as it depends on the initial and final states of the system.
The spontaneity of a reaction is explained by the standard gibb's free energy.
- If Delta-G = -ve ( the reaction is spontaneous)
- if Delta -G = +ve ( the reaction is non-spontaneous)
- if Delta-G = 0 ( the reaction is at equilibrium)
The step by step calculations is done as shown in the attachment.

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of hydrogen gas at equilibrium is 0.0275 M
<u>Explanation:</u>
Molarity is calculated by using the equation:
Moles of HI = 0.550 moles
Volume of container = 2.00 L
For the given chemical equation:
<u>Initial:</u> 0.275
<u>At eqllm:</u> 0.275-2x x x
The expression of for above equation follows:
We are given:
Putting values in above expression, we get:
Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative
So, equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas = x = 0.0275 M
Hence, the concentration of hydrogen gas at equilibrium is 0.0275 M

Explanation:
From the given information, since the molecular mass of the ion M+ is not given;
Let's assume M+ = 58.0423
So, by applying the 13th rule;
we will need to divide the mass by 13, after dividing it;
The quotient n = no. of carbon; &
The addition of the quotient (n) with the remainder r = no. of hydrogen.
So;
So;
From the given information; we have oxygen present, so since the mass of oxygen = 16, we put oxygen in the molecular formula by removing . Also, since the mass is an even number then Nitrogen is 0.
So, we have:
