Answer:

a. Kp=1.4

P_{A}=0.2215 atm

P_{B}=0.556 atm

b.Kp=2.0 * 10^-4

P_{A}=0.495atm

P_{B}=0.00995 atm

c.Kp=2.0 * 10^5

P_{A}=5*10^{-6}atm

P_{B}=0.9999 atm

Explanation:

For the reaction  

A(g)⇌2B(g)

Kp is defined as:

Kp=\frac{(P_{B})^{2}}{P_{A}}

The conditions in the system are:

          A                    B

initial   0                1 atm

equilibrium x       1atm-2x

At the beginning, we don’t have any A in the system, so B starts to react to produce A until the system reaches the equilibrium producing x amount of A. From the stoichiometric relationship in the reaction we get that to produce x amount of A we need to 2x amount of B so in the equilibrium we will have 1 atm – 2x of B, as it is showed in the table.    

Replacing these values in the expression for Kp we get:

Kp=\frac{(1-2x)^{2}}{x}

Working with this equation:

x*Kp=(1-2x)^{2} - -> x*Kp=4x^{2}-4x+1- - >4x^{2}-(4+Kp)*x+1=0

This last expression is quadratic expression with a=4, b=-(4+Kp) and c=1

The general expression to solve these kinds of equations is:

x=\frac{-b(+-)*\sqrt{(b^{2}-4ac)}}{2a} (equation 1)

We just take the positive values from the solution since negative partial pressures don´t make physical sense.

Kp = 1.4

x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)+\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=1.128

x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)-\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=0.2215

With x1 we get a partial pressure of:

P_{A}=1.128 atm

P_{B}=1-2*1.128 = -1.256 atm

Since negative partial pressure don´t make physical sense x1 is not the solution for the system.

With x2 we get:

P_{A}=0.2215 atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.2215 = 0.556 atm

These partial pressures make sense so x2 is the solution for the equation.

We follow the same analysis for the other values of Kp.

Kp=2*10^-4

X1=0.505

X2=0.495

With x1

P_{A}=0.505atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.505 = -0.01005 atm

Not sense.

With x2

P_{A}=0.495atm

P_{B}=1-2*0.495 = 0.00995 atm

X2 is the solution for this equation.  

Kp=2*10^5

X1=50001

X2=5*10^{-6}

With x1

P_{A}=50001atm

P_{B}=1-2*50001=-100001atm

Not sense.

With x2

P_{A}= 5*10^{-6}atm

P_{B}=1-2*5*10^{-6}= 0.9999 atm

X2 is the solution for this equation.

The boiling point of water is 100.0°C at 1 atmosphere. How many grams of sodium acetate (82.04 g/mol), must be dissolved in 283.
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

I have to weight 10,04 g of acetate sodium

Explanation:

This is the colligative propertie about elevation of boiling point

ΔT = Kb . m . i  

ΔT is the difference between T° at boiling point of the solution - T° at boiling point of the solvent pure  - we have this data 0,450°C

Kb means ebulloscopic constant (0,52 °C.kg/m .- a known value for water)

m means molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

i means theVan 't Hoff factor (degree of dissociation for a compound)

For the sodium acetate is 2

NaCH3COO ---> Na+  + CH3COO-

0,450°C = 0,52°C.kg/m . m . 2

0,450°C / (0,52°C.kg/m . 2) = m

0,432 m/kg = m

This number means I have 0,432 moles of acetate sodium, my solute in 1kg of water, my solvent. But I don't have 1000 g (1kg) I only have 283 g so let's make the rule of three:

1000 g _____ 0,432 moles

283 g ______ (283g .0,432m) / 1000g = 0,122 moles

Now that I have the moles of acetate sodium, I have to find the mass.

Moles . molar mass = mass

0,122 moles . 82.04 g/mol = 10,04 g

If body fats has a density of 0.94 g/mL and 3.0 liters of fat are removed, how many pounds of fat were removed from the patient?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

6.217 pounds

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Density of body fats 0.94 g/mL
  • Volume of fats removed = 3.0 L

We are required to determine the mass of fats removed in pounds.

We need to know that;

Density = Mass ÷ volume

1 L = 1000 mL, thus, volume is 3000 mL

Rearranging the formula;

Mass = Density × Volume

         = 0.94 g/mL × 3000 mL

         = 2,820 g

but, 1 pound = 453.592 g

Therefore;

Mass = 2,820 g ÷ 453.592 g per pound

         = 6.217 pounds

Thus, the amount of fats removed is 6.217 pounds

PLS HELP ASAP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! Which of the following explains the conservation of mass during cellular respiration? (4
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

jayfeather friend me    ccccccc

Explanation:

is: cellular respiration creates an energy molecule when glucose is broken down.

Conservation of mass (mass is never lost or gained in chemical reactions), during chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed, the atoms are simply rearranged from the reactants to the products.

For the reaction A +B+ C D E, the initial reaction rate was measured for various initial concentrations of reactants. The follow
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Rate constant of the reaction is 3.3\times 10^{-3} M^{-2} s^{-1}.

Explanation:

A + B + C → D + E

Let the balanced reaction be ;

aA + bB + cC → dD + eE

Expression of rate law of the reaction will be written as:

R=k[A]^a[B]^b[C]^c

Rate(R) of the reaction in trail 1 ,when :

[A]=0.30 M,[B]=0.30 M,[C]=0.30 M

R=9.0\times 10^{-5} M/s

9.0\times 10^{-5} M/s=k[0.30 M]^a[0.30 M]^b[0.30 M]^c...[1]

Rate(R) of the reaction in trail 2 ,when :

[A]=0.30 M,[B]=0.30 M,[C]=0.90 M

R=2.7\times 10^{-4} M/s

2.7\times 10^{-4} M/s=k[0.30 M]^a[0.30 M]^b[0.90 M]^c...[2]

Rate(R) of the reaction in trail 3 ,when :

[A]=0.60 M,[B]=0.30 M,[C]=0.30 M

R=3.6\times 10^{-4} M/s

3.6\times 10^{-4} M/s=k[0.60 M]^a[0.30 M]^b[0.30 M]^c...[3]

Rate(R) of the reaction in trail 4 ,when :

[A]=0.60 M,[B]=0.60 M,[C]=0.30 M

R=3.6\times 10^{-4} M/s

3.6\times 10^{-4} M/s=k[0.60 M]^a[0.60 M]^b[0.30 M]^c...[4]

By [1] ÷ [2], we get value of c ;

c = 1

By [3] ÷ [4], we get value of b ;

b = 0

By [2] ÷ [3], we get value of a ;

a = 2

Rate law of reaction is :

R=k[A]^2[B]^0[C]^1

Rate constant of the reaction = k

9.0\times 10^{-5} M/s=k[0.30 M]^2[0.30 M]^0[0.30 M]^1

k=\frac{9.0\times 10^{-5} M/s}{[0.30 M]^2[0.30 M]^0[0.30 M]^1}

k=3.3\times 10^{-3} M^{-2} s^{-1}
