The rate of the backward reaction increases

Explanation:

It is evident that if the reaction is left to proceed spontaneously, the forward reaction is favored because it results in a decrease in pressure in the system (The total reactants have 5 moles and the products have 3 in total).

Increasing H₂O concentration is then reaction, therefore, stymies the forward reaction and favors the reserves reaction. This is because the reverse reaction will lead to reduced pressure.

Write ionic equations for any three of the following:

worty [1.4K]

The ionic equation is:

H⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

HNO₃(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaNO₃(aq) + H2O(l)

The required dissociations are

HNO₃(aq) → H⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq)

NaOH(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

NaNO₃(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq)

So, the ionic equation is

H⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

The ionic equation is

H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + K⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → K⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

HCl(aq) + KOH(aq) → KCl(aq) + H2O(l)

The required dissociations are

HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

KOH(aq) → K⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

KCl(aq) → K⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

So, the ionic equation is

H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + K⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → K⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

The ionic equation is

2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) + Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) → Mg²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

+ 2H₂O(l)

H₂SO₄(aq) + Mg(OH)₂(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + 2H2O(l)

The required dissociations are

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

Mg(OH)₂(aq) → Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

MgSO₄(aq) → Mg²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

So, the ionic equation is

2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) + Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) → Mg²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

+ 2H₂O(l)

What is the number of moles in 15.0 g AsH3?

pentagon [3]

We are given with the mass of Arsine ( $AsH_{3}$

The mass of arsine is 15g

there is a relation between moles, mass and molar mass of any compound which is

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}$

The molar mass of Arsine = atomic mass of As + 3X atomic mass of H

the molar mass of Arsine = 74.92 + 3X 1 = 77.92 g/mol

Let us calculate the moles as

$moles=\frac{15}{77.92}=0.192mol$
