Which statement about a reaction is not correct?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A reaction that is exothermic and causes a decrease in the entropy of the system cannot be a spontaneous reaction. This is not totally true because naturally For a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe (system plus surroundings) must increase. This is the 2nd law of thermodynamics. The system entropy can decrease as long as the entropy of the surroundings increases enough to make the sum of the system and surroundings positive.

And we know that a spontaneous reaction is a reaction that occurs in a given set of conditions without intervention. Spontaneous reactions are accompanied by an increase in overall entropy or disorder. If the Gibbs Free Energy is negative, then the reaction is spontaneous, and if it is positive, then it is nonspontaneous.

Which of these statements is false? (A) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong bas
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

(C) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong base such as CH₃​​Li.

Explanation:

Acetylene (C₂H₂) can be converted to the acetylide anion (C₂⁻²) when treated with a base because it will donate protons (2H⁺). So it will be a neutralization reaction. NaNH₂ and NaOH are strong bases because they are good electrons donators ( NaNH₂ has pair of electrons on N, and NaOH has the group OH⁻), but CH₃Li has no pair of electrons to donate, so it's not a strong base.

For the reaction 2 H2S(g) D 2 H2 (g) + S2 (g), Kp = 1.5 × 10−5 at 800.0°C. If the initial partial pressures of H2 and S2 in a cl
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: The approximate equilibrium partial pressure of H_2S is 3.92  atm

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each term raised to its stochiometric coefficients.

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

      2H_2S(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2(g)+S_2(g)

K_p=\frac{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}{[H_2S]^2}

1.5\times 10^{-5}=\frac{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}{[H_2S]^2}

On reversing the reaction:

     2H_2(g)+S_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2S(g)

initial pressure  4.00atm    2.00 atm       0

eqm          (4.00-2x)atm      (2.00-x) atm      2x atm

K_p=\frac{[H_2S]^2}{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}

K_p'=\frac{1}{K_p}=0.67\times 10^5

2H_2(g)+S_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2S(g)

0.67\times 10^5=\frac{2x]^2}{[4.00-2x]^2\times [2.00-x]}

x=1.96

[H_2S]=2x=2\times 1.96=3.92 atm

Thus approximate equilibrium partial pressure of H_2S is 3.92 atm
