Consider the reaction:

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

K = Ka/Kb

Explanation:

P(s) + (3/2) Cl₂(g) <-------> PCl₃(g) K = ?

P(s) + (5/2) Cl₂(g) <--------> PCl₅(g) Ka

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) <---------> PCl₅(g) Kb

K = [PCl₃]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)

Ka = [PCl₅]/ ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

Kb = [PCl₅]/ ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

Since [PCl₅] = [PCl₅]

From the Ka equation,

[PCl₅] = Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

From the Kb equation

[PCl₅] = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

Equating them

Ka ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾) = Kb ([PCl₃] [Cl₂])

(Ka/Kb) = ([PCl₃] [Cl₂]) / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽⁵'²⁾)

(Ka/Kb) = [PCl₃] / ([P] [Cl₂]⁽³'²⁾)

Comparing this with the equation for the overall equilibrium constant

K = Ka/Kb

We have that the molecular weight (3sf) of the compound (g/mol)

$m=44.15g/mol$

From the question we are told

A solution made by mixing 20.0 g of a non-volatile compound with 125 mL of water at 25°C has a vapor pressure of 22.67 torr. What is the molecular weight (3sf) of the compound (g/mol).

Generally the equation for the Rouault's law is mathematically given as

P=P_0 N

$22.67=23.8*\frac{\frac{12.5}{18}}{\frac{125}{18}+\frac{15}{m}}\\\\\6.95+\frac{15}{m}=7.29\\\\\frac{15}{m}=7.29-6.95\\\\m=\frac{15}{0.34}\\\\m=44.11g/mol$

Therefore

The molecular weight (3sf) of the compound (g/mol)

$m=44.15g/mol$

A sample of hydrogen was collected by water displacement at 23.0°C and an atmospheric pressure of 735 mmHg. Its volume is 568 mL

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

V = 552 mL or 0.552 L

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the number of moles of H2 using the ideal gas equation which is:

PV = nRT

Solving for n:

n = PV / RT

Where:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

R = Gas constant (0.082 L atm / K mol)

T = Temperature in K

Let's convert first both pressure in atm, remember that 1 atm = 760 mmHg

P = 735 / 760 = 0.967 atm

Pwater = 21 / 760 = 0.028 atm

Finally temperature to Kelvin:

T = 23 + 273.15 = 296.15 K

Now, at first the hydrogen was collected by water displacement so pressure is:

P = 0.967 - 0.028 = 0.939 atm

Now the moles of hydrogen:

n = 0.939 * 0.568 / 0.082 * 296.15

n = 0.022 moles

Now that we have the moles, let's calculate the volume when the pressure is 735 mmHg

V = nRT/P

V = 0.022 * 0.082 * 296.15 / 0.967

V = 0.552 L or 552 mL

This is the volume that hydrogen occupies.
