Predict the effect of the following changes in the reaction CO (g) + 2 H2 (g) <-> CH3OH (g) + energy.
Sophie [7]

Explanation:

  Equation of reaction:

             CO   + 2H₂    ⇒   CH₃OH   +   energy

a.  An increase in pressure:

A change in pressure affects only equilibrium involving a gas or gases. Le Chatelier's principle can be used to predict the direction of displacement.

An increase in pressure on an equilibrium system will shift the position of equilibrium to the side having smaller volume and vice-versa

       CO   + 2H₂    ⇒   CH₃OH   +   energy

          3 moles                  1 moles

An increase in pressure will favor the forward reaction to be favored.

b. Addition of H₂:

An in concentration of a specie favors the direction that uses up that specie and lowers its concentration.

Addition of hydrogen gas increases the concentration of amount of substances reacting.

To annul the effect of the reactant, more the product is given. The equilibrium shifts in the forward direction.

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore _____.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: Correct options are as follows.

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

Explanation:

When salt is dissolved in water then it means that it is a physical change as salt has completely dissociated into ions but they are not chemically combined to the water molecules.

As a result, both salt and water will retain their chemical properties.

For example, NaCl when dissolved in water will dissociate as follows.

           NaCl \rightarrow Na^{+} + Cl^{-}

Only the particles of salt have evenly distributed in water.

And, when a components of a salt chemically combine with another substance then it will form a new compound.

Therefore, we can conclude that salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore:

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

Calculate the ph of a solution formed by mixing 200.0 ml of 0.30 m hclo with 300.0 ml of 0.20 m kclo. the ka for hclo is 2.9 × 1
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pH of the solution will be 7.53.

Explanation:

Dissociation constant of KClO=K_a=2.8\times 10^{-8}

Concentration of acid in 1 l= 0.30 M

Then in 200 ml = 0.30 M\times 0.200 L=0.06 M

The concentration of acid, HClO=[acid]= 0.006 M

Concentration of salt in 1 L = 0.20 M

Then in 300 ml = 0.20 M\times 0.300 L=0.06 M

The concentration of acid, KClO=[salt]= 0.006 M

The pH of the solution will be given by formula :

pH=pK_{a}^o+\log\frac{[salt]}{[acid]}

pH=-\log[2.8\times 10^{-8}]+\frac{[0.06 M]}{[0.06 M]}

The pH of the solution will be 7.53.

When molten sulfur reacts with chlorine gas, a vile-smelling orange liquid forms that has an empirical formula of SCl. The struc
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The structure is shown below.

Explanation:

The formal charge (FC) is the charge that is more close to the actual charge in the real molecules and ions. It can be calculated based on the number of valence electrons (V), the shared electrons (S) and the electrons in the lone pairs (L) by the equation:

FC = V - (L + S/2)

Sulfur is in group 16 of the periodic table, so it has 6 valence electrons, and chlorine is from group 17 of the periodic table, and so it has 7 valence electrons. Chlorine can share only one electron, so it is stable. Sulfur can expand its octet (because it's from the third period) and can have more than 8 electrons when stable.

The possible formulas, from the empiric one, are:

SCl, S₂Cl₂, and S₃Cl₃.

To have FC = 0, chlorine must done only one bond, because S = 2, and L = 6, so:

FC = 7 - (6 + 2/2) = 0

So, it can not be the central atom of a structure. In the SCl, it will hav only a simple bond, so for sulfur, S = 2, and L = 4 (only the lone pairs are counted)

FC = 6 - (4+ 2/2) = +1

For S₂Cl₂, the two sulfurs must be bonded to a simple bond, and each one to one chlorine, thus, for both od them S = 4, and L = 4. so

FC = 6 - (4 + 4/2) = 0

So, it is the correct structure. The lewis structure represents the bonds by lines and the lone pairs of electrons by dots, and it is shown below.
