Answer:

(A) The value of Kc for this reaction increases as temperature increases, because the reaction is endothermic.

Step-by-step explanation:

N₂O₄ ⇌ 2NO₂

colourless reddish-brown

NO₂ is a reddish-brown gas, while N₂O₄ is colourless.

When you cooled the sample to 0 °C, the position of equilibrium shifted to form more N₂O₄, that is, it shifted to the left.

According to Le Châtelier's Principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond in a way that tends to relieve the stress.

You applied a stress: you removed heat from the system. It responded by shifting in the direction that produces more heat (to the left).

If you consider heat as part of the reaction, the equation must be

N₂O₄ + heat ⇌ 2NO₂

The reaction is endothermic.

Furthermore, since the position of equilibrium shifted in the direction of reactants, the equilibrium constant decreased.

The value of K decreases as the temperature decreases. If we say it the other way, the value of K increases as the temperature increases.

The correct answer is (A) The value of Kc for this reaction increases as temperature increases, because the reaction is endothermic.

(B) and (D) are wrong, because the reaction is endothermic.

In comparing 1 mole of carbon atoms to one mole of magnesium atoms, which statement is TRUE?

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) The molecular mass of a compound is the atomic mass of this compound but in grams, we know that the magnesium has an atomic mass of 24 u and the carbon has and atomic mass of 12 u, so the molecular mass of magnesium is 24g and the molecular mass of carbon is 12g, so a mole of magnesium has a greater mass.

B) A mole of any given substance is the avogadro number, 6.023 10^23 molecules, so a mole of magnesium and a mole of carbon has the same amount of atoms.

C) The molecular mass of a compound is the atomic mass of this compound but in grams, we know that the magnesium has an atomic mass of 24 u and the carbon has and atomic mass of 12 u, so the molecular mass of magnesium is 24g and the molecular mass of carbon is 12g, so a mole of magnesium has a greater mass.

D) The molecular mass of a compound is the atomic mass of this compound but in grams, we know that the magnesium has an atomic mass of 24 u and the carbon has and atomic mass of 12 u, so the molecular mass of magnesium is 24g and the molecular mass of carbon is 12g, so a mole of magnesium has a greater mass.

A laboratory analysis of an unknown sample yields 40.5% carbon, 4.5% hydrogen, and 55.0% oxygen. if the sample has a molar mass

den301095 [7]

Answer is: molecular formula is C₆H₈O₆.
n(C) = m(C) ÷ M(C).
n(C) = 40,5 g ÷ 12 g/mol.
n(C) = 3,375 mol.
n(H) = m(H) ÷ M(H).
n(H) = 4,5 g ÷ 1 g/mol.
n(H) = 4,5 mol.
n(O) = m(O) ÷ M(O).
n(O) = 55 g ÷ 16 g/mol.
n(O) = 3,4 mol.
n(C) : n(H) : n(O) = 3,375 mol : 4,5 mol : 3,4 mol / :3,375.
n(C) : n(H) : n(O) = 1 : 1,33 : 1.
n(C) : n(H) : n(O) = 3 : 4 : 3.
M(C₃H₄O₃) = 88 g/mol · 2 = 176 g/mol.
