Based on Le Chatelier's principle, if a system at equilibrium is disturbed by changes in the temperature, pressure or concentration, then the equilibrium will shift in a direction to undo the effect of the induced change.

The given reaction is endothermic i.e, heat is supplied:

CH4(g) + H2O (g) + heat ↔ 3H2(g) + CO(g)

a) When the temperature is lowered, heat is being removed from the system. The reaction will move in a direction to produce more heat i.e. to the left.

Hence, the pressure of CH4 will increase and equilibrium will shift to the left

b) When the temperature is raised, heat is being added to the system. The reaction will move in a direction to consume the added heat i.e. to the right.

Hence, the pressure of CO will increase and equilibrium will shift to the right

What is the atomic mass of<br> an atom?
Alborosie

Answer:

1 unit

Explanation:

It is expressed as a multiple of one-twelfth the mass of the carbon-12 atom, 1.992646547 × 10−23 gram, which is assigned an atomic mass of 12 units.

1/12 * 12 = 1. I think so.

I need help identifying the type of reactions. Can anyone help?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Reaction 5: Decomposition reaction.

Reaction 6: Single replacement reaction

Reaction 7: Combination reaction.

Reaction 8: Combustion reaction.

Explanation:

<u><em>Reaction 5:</em></u>    2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂.

  • It is a decomposition reaction.
  • A decomposition reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which a single compound breaks down into two or more elements or new compounds.
  • In this reaction: potassium chlorate decomposes into two single components (potassium chloride and oxygen).
  • So, it is a decomposition reaction.

<u><em>Reaction 6:</em></u> Zn + 2HCl → H₂ + ZnCl₂.

  • It is a single replacement reaction.
  • A single-replacement reaction, a single-displacement reaction, is a reaction by which one (or more) element(s) replaces an/other element(s) in a compound.
  • It is most often occur if element is more reactive than the other, thus giving a more stable product.
  • In this reaction, zinc metal (more active) displaces the hydrogen to form hydrogen gas and zinc chloride, a salt. Zinc reacts quickly with the acid to form bubbles of hydrogen.

<u><em>Reaction 7:</em></u> N₂O₅ + H₂O → 2HNO₃.

  • It is a combination "synthesis" reaction.
  • A synthesis reaction has two or more reactants and only one product.
  • In this reaction, dinitrogen pentoxide reacts with water to produce nitric acid.
  • So, it is considered as a synthetic "combination" reaction.

<u><em>Reaction 8:</em></u> 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ →  4CO₂ + 6H₂O.

  • It is a combustion reaction.
  • A combustion reaction is a reaction where hydrocarbon alkane is completely burned in oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide.
  • In this reaction 1.0 mole of ethane is burned to give 4.0 moles of carbon dioxide and 6.0 moles of water.
  • So, it is considered as a combustion reaction.

Answer:

2H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

H₂ + O₂       →     H₂O

Balance chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Step 1:

H₂ + O₂       →     H₂O

Left hand side                     Right hand side

H = 2                                    H = 2

O = 2                                    O = 1

Step 2:

H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Left hand side                     Right hand side

H = 2                                    H = 4

O = 2                                    O = 2

Step 3:

2H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Left hand side                     Right hand side

H = 4                                    H = 4

O = 2                                    O = 2
