The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Nickel and carbon monoxide react to form nickel carbonyl, like this:

Ni(s)+4CO(g)\rightarrow Ni(CO)_4(g)

At a certain temperature, a chemist finds that a 2.6 L reaction vessel containing a mixture of nickel, carbon monoxide, and nickel carbonyl at equilibrium has the following composition:

Compound            Amount

     Ni                        12.7 g

   CO                        1.98 g

Ni(CO)_4                  0.597 g

Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant.

<u>Answer:</u> The value of equilibrium constant for the reaction is 2448.1

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of nickel = 12.7 g

Mass of CO = 1.98 g

Mass of Ni(CO)_4 = 0.597 g

Volume of container = 2.6 L

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

\text{Equilibrium concentration of nickel}=\frac{12.7}{58.7\times 2.6}=0.083M

\text{Equilibrium concentration of CO}=\frac{1.98}{28\times 2.6}=0.0272M

\text{Equilibrium concentration of }Ni(CO)_4=\frac{0.597}{170.73\times 2.6}=0.00134M

For the given chemical reaction:

Ni(s)+4CO(g)\rightarrow Ni(CO)_4(g)

The expression of equilibrium constant for the reaction:

K_{eq}=\frac{[Ni(CO)_4]}{[CO]^4}

Concentrations of pure solids and pure liquids are taken as 1 in equilibrium constant expression.

Putting values in above expression, we get:

K_{eq}=\frac{0.00134}{(0.0272)^4}\\\\K_{eq}=2448.1

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for the reaction is 2448.1

what temperature change will be observed if a sample of 100 g of ethylene glycol antifreeze solution (specific heat capacity = 3
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

1°C temperature change will be observed if a sample of 100 g of ethylene glycol antifreeze solution.

Explanation:

Mass of ethylene glycol = m = 100 g

Specific heat capacity of ethylene glycol = c = 3.5 J/g°C

Change in temperature of ethylene glycol = ΔT

Heat loss by the ethylene glycol = Q = 350 J

Q=mc\Delta T

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}=\frac{350 J}{100 g\times 3.5 J/g^oC}

ΔT = 1°C

1°C temperature change will be observed if a sample of 100 g of ethylene glycol antifreeze solution.

I need help solving this for chemistry. Don’t know where to start:/

1 electron has charge =1.602* 10⁻¹⁹ C
1 mole of electrons have 1.602* 10⁻¹⁹*6.02*10²³C = 9.64*10⁴ C/1mol

One ion Co²⁺   takes 2e⁻ to become Co⁰.
1 mol of Co²⁺  ions take 2 mole of e⁻ to become Co⁰, so
 0.30 mol Co²⁺  ions take mole of 0.60 mol e⁻ to become Co⁰

9.64*10⁴(C/1mol) *0.60 (mol)≈ 5.8 *10⁴ Coulombs.
Correct answer is C
