Answer : The moles of CO,H_2\text{ and }CH_3OH are, 0.1187, 0.2374 and 0.0313 moles respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Initial moles of CO = 0.15 mole

Initial moles of H_2 = 0.3 mole

Moles of CO at equilibrium = 0.1187 mole

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                             CO+2H_2\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH

Initial moles          0.15    0.3          0

At equilibrium  (0.15-x)  (0.3-2x)    x

As we are given that,

Moles of CO at equilibrium = 0.1187 mole = 0.15 - x

0.15 - x = 0.1187

x = 0.0313

Moles of H_2 at equilibrium = 0.3 - 2x = 0.3 - 2(0.0313) = 0.2374 mole

Moles of CH_3OH at equilibrium = x = 0.0313 mole

Therefore, the moles of CO,H_2\text{ and }CH_3OH are, 0.1187, 0.2374 and 0.0313 moles respectively.

What is the pH of a weak acid solution that has an [H+] of 2.1 x 10^-6 M?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

5.7 pH

Explanation:

To find pH when given [H+], you use this formula: pH = -log[H+]

-log * 2.1e-6 = 5.6778 = 5.7 pH

Given the reaction: cu(s) + 4hno3(aq) → cu(no3)2(aq) + 2no3(g) + 2h2o(l )as the reaction occurs, what happens to copper?
katrin [286]
From the reaction between Cu and HNO₃, the formed gas is NO₂ instead of NO₃. Hence the correct balanced equation would be,
Cu(s) + 4HNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O<span>(l)

Here, Cu goes to </span>Cu(NO₃)₂ by changing its oxidation number from 0 to +2 while NO₃⁻ goes to NO₂ by reducing its oxidation state from +5 to +4 . Hence Cu is oxidized by HNO₃ in the reaction.

How many moles of water are produced from 32 grams of methane?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

4 moles

Explanation:

n_{CH4} = \frac{32}{16} = 2 (moles)

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

  1     :    2    :     1    :      2

  2                                         (moles)

⇒ n_{H2O} = 2 × 2 ÷ 1 = 4 (moles)
