Answer:

[I⁻] = 0.0352M

Explanation:

Based on the equilibrium:

I₃⁻(aq) ⇄ I₂(aq) + I⁻(aq)

Kc is defined as:

Kc = 0.25 = [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻]

<em>The system reaches the equilbrium when the ratio</em> [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻] <em>is equal to 0.25</em>

In the beginning, you add 0.0401M of both [I₂] [I⁻].  When the reaction reach the equilibrium, xM of both [I₂] [I⁻] is consumed producing xM of  [I₃⁻]. That is written as:

[I₃⁻] = X

[I₂] = 0.0401M - X

[I⁻] = 0.0401M - X

<em>X is known as reaction coordinate.</em>

<em />

Replacing in Kc:

0.25 = [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻]

0.25 = [0.0401M - X] [0.0401M - X] / [X]

0.25X = 0.00160801 - 0.0802X + X²

0 = 0.00160801 - 0.3302X + X²

Solving for X:

X = 0.0049M → Right solution

X = 0.3252M → False solution. Produce negative concentrations

Replacing, equilibrium concentrations will be:

[I₃⁻] = X

[I₂] = 0.0401M - X

[I⁻] = 0.0401M - X

[I₃⁻] = 0.0049M

[I₂] = 0.0352M

<h3>[I⁻] = 0.0352M</h3>

The combustion of propane may be described by the chemical equation C 3 H 8 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 3 CO 2 ( g ) + 4 H 2 O ( g ) C
Kipish [7]

Answer: 72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Putting in the values we get:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{19.7g}{44g/mol}=0.45moles

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of C_3H_8 requires 5 moles of oxygen

0.45 moles of C_3H_8 require= \frac{5}{1}\times 0.45=2.25 moles of oxygen

Mass of O_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=2.25\times 32=72g

72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)

Is material that has a density of 0.2g/ml good for building a bridge or for making couch cushions
lisov135 [29]
D = 0.2 g / ml = 0.2 g / cm³
For example, density of steel is 7.85 g / cm³.
Density of pure water is 1.0 g/cm³. An object which has a density < 1.0 g/cm³ will float in water.
Answer: Material that has a density of 0.2 g/ml ( 0.2 g/cm³ ) is good for making couch cushions.
