4. Why do compounds form in nature?

1 answer:

3 0

so basically a atom type contains the same number of protons. Chemical bonds put elements together to form more complex molecules called compounds. A compound consists of two or more types of elements held together by covalent or ionic bonds. Elements can't be divided into smaller units not using large amounts of energy.

Answer:

The system is not in equilibrium and will evolve left to right to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient Qc is defined for a generic reaction:

aA + bB → cC + dD

$Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are not those of equilibrium, but other given concentrations

Chemical Equilibrium is the state in which the direct and indirect reaction have the same speed and is represented by a constant Kc, which for a generic reaction as shown above, is defined:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are those of equilibrium.

This constant is equal to the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Comparing Qc with Kc allows to find out the status and evolution of the system:

If the reaction quotient is equal to the equilibrium constant, Qc = Kc, the system has reached chemical equilibrium.

If the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, Qc> Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. In this case the direct reaction predominates and there will be more product present than what is obtained at equilibrium. Therefore, this product is used to promote the reverse reaction and reach equilibrium. The system will then evolve to the left to increase the reagent concentration.

If the reaction quotient is less than the equilibrium constant, Qc <Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. The concentration of the reagents is higher than it would be at equilibrium, so the direct reaction predominates. Thus, the system will evolve to the right to increase the concentration of products.

In this case:

$Q=\frac{[So_{3}] ^{2} }{[SO_{2} ]^{2}* [O_{2}] }$

$Q=\frac{10^{2} }{0.10^{2} *0.10}$

Q=100,000

100,000 < 4,300,000 (4.3*10⁶)

Q < Kc

Calculate the boiling temperature of a 0.50 M solution of sucrose. Assume that the concentration is 0.50 m.

Ronch [10]

There is one missing point in the question.

The formula to find an increase in boiling Temperature is :

ΔT = kb x M

ΔT = is the increase in boiling Temperature
Kb = Boiling point constant of the Solvent
M = Molarity

You did not provide the Kb. If you have it, you just have to insert it to the formula to find the ΔT.

And assuming that the other solution is water, you just have to add it up with 100 Celcius

A. how the Moon's appearance changes

Explanation:

Descriptive investigation use very careful observations and measurements to develop findings.

Most geologists, meteorologists and astronomers use descriptive investigation to develop their findings.
