Answer: Cl_2 = 42.9 atm, PCl_3 = 93.4 atm and PCl_5 = 7.66 atm

Explanation: The given balanced equation is:

PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)

K_p=523.6

Initial pressure of PCl_5 = 50.560 atm  

initial pressure of PCl_3 = 50.500 atm

Let's say the change in pressure is p. Then:

equilibrium partial pressure of PCl_5 = (50.560 - p) atm

equilibrium partial pressure of PCl_3 = (50.500 + p) atm

equilibrium partial pressure of Cl_2 = p atm

K_p=\frac{(PCl_3)(Cl_2)}{PCl_5}

Let's plug in the values in it:

523.6=\frac{(50.500+p)(p)}{50.560-p}

on cross multiply:

26473.216-523.6p=50.500p+p^2

on rearranging the above equation:

p^2+574.1p-26473.216=0

It's a quadratic equation. On solving this equation:

p = 42.9

So, the equalibrium partial pressure of Cl_2 = 42.9 atm

equilibrium partial pressure of PCl_3 = 50.500 + 42.9 = 93.4 atm

equilibrium partial pressure of PCl_5 = 50.560 - 42.9 = 7.66 atm

What is the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual with oxygen at 100. mmHg, nitrogen at 573 mmHg, carbon dioxide at 0.
ryzh [129]

Answer: The total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B+p_C...

Given : p_{total} =total pressure of gases = ?

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of oxygen = 100 mm Hg

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen = 573 mm Hg

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of Carbon dioxide = 0.053 atm = 40.28 mm Hg(1 atm = 760 mmHg)

p_{H_2O} = partial pressure of water vapor = 47 torr = 47 mm Hg  (1torr=1 mm Hg)

putting in the values we get:

p_{total}=(100+573+40.28+47)mmHg

p_{total}=760.28mmHg

Thus the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

If you are given the molarity of a solution, what additional information would you need to find the weight/weight percent (w/w%)
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

- The molar mass of the solute, in order to convert from moles of solute to grams of solute.

- The density of solution, to convert from volume of solution to mass of solution.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since molarity is mathematically defined as the moles of solute divided by the volume of solution and the weight/weight percent as the mass of solute divided by the mass of solution, we need:

- The molar mass of the solute, in order to convert from moles of solute to grams of solute.

- The density of solution, to convert from volume of solution to mass of solution.

For instance, if a 1-M solution of HCl has a density of 1.125 g/mL, we can compute the w/w% as follows:

w/w\%=1\frac{molHCl}{L\ sln}*\frac{36.45gHCl}{1molHCl}*\frac{1L\ sln}{1000mL\ sln}*\frac{1mL\ sln}{1.125g\ sln}    *100\%\\\\w/w\%=3.15\%

Whereas the first factor corresponds to the molar mass of HCl, the second one the conversion from L to mL of solution and the third one the density to express in terms of grams of solution.

Regards.

What happens to the number in a measurement that is converted from kilometers to meters
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

You multiply the number by 1000 when you convert a measurement from kilometres to metres.

The prefix <em>kilo</em> means <em>×1000</em>, so

1 <em>kilo</em>metre means 1 metre <em>×1000</em>.
