Answer:

It shifts left

Explanation:

The equilibrium equation is:

Water + Energy ⇄ Vapor

By LeChatelier's principle when a system in equilibrium is disturbed, the system will react to counteract the disturbance and restore fhe equiibrium.

When one of the substances increases, look at where it appears in the chemical equilibrium equation and determine how that increase can be compensated.

In this case, the system will try to balance the increase in vapor, which is on the right side of the equation, by consuming part of it and producing more water and energy through the reverse reaction, from right to left. Thus, the system will shift left.

Which material property is most directly related to the x-axis value at the x-intercept of the interatomic force versus distance

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mechanical properties of a material affect how it behaves as it is loaded. The elastic modulus of the material affects how much it deflects under a load, and the strength of the material determines the stresses that it can withstand before it fails

If the sample contained 2.0 moles of KClO3 at a temperature of 214.0 °C, determine the mass of the oxygen gas produced in grams

Westkost [7]

Answer : The mass of the oxygen gas produced in grams and the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls is, 96 grams and 1.78 atm respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of $KCl_3$ = 2.0 moles

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of $MgO$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2KClO_3\rightarrow 2KCl+3O_2$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $KClO_3$ react to give 3 mole of $O_2$

So, 2.0 moles of $KClO_3$ react to give $\frac{2.0}{2}\times 3=3.0$ moles of $O_2$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $O_2$

$\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2$

$\text{ Mass of }O_2=(3.0moles)\times (32g/mole)=96g$

Therefore, the mass of oxygen gas produced is, 96 grams.

Now we have to determine the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls.

Using ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT\\\\PV=\frac{w}{M}RT\\\\P=\frac{w}{V}\times \frac{RT}{M}\\\\P=\rho\times \frac{RT}{M}$

where,

P = pressure of oxygen gas = ?

V = volume of oxygen gas

T = temperature of oxygen gas = $214.0^oC=273+214.0=487K$

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

w = mass of oxygen gas

$\rho$ = density of oxygen gas = 1.429 g/L

M = molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mole

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

$P=1.429g/L\times \frac{(0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (487K)}{32g/mol}$

$P=1.78atm$

Thus, the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls is, 1.78 atm.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: The concentrations of $Cl_2$ at equilibrium is 0.023 M

Explanation:

Moles of $Cl_2$ = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{10g}{71g/mol}=0.14mol$

Volume of solution = 1 L

Initial concentration of $Cl_2$ = $\frac{0.14mol}{1L}=0.14M$

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$COCl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Cl_2(g)$

Initial conc. 0.14 M 0 M 0M

At eqm. conc. (0.14-x) M (x) M (x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

$K_c=\frac{[CO]\times [Cl_2]}{[COCl_2]}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

$4.63\times 10^{-3}=\frac{x)^2}{(0.14-x)}$

By solving the term 'x', we get :

x = 0.023 M

Thus, the concentrations of $Cl_2$ at equilibrium is 0.023 M

Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?

Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.
