Some SbCl5 is allowed to dissociate into SbCl3 and Cl2 at 521 K. At equilibrium, [SbCl5] = 0.195 M, and [SbCl3] = [Cl2] = 6.98×1

0-2 M. Additional SbCl5 is added so that [SbCl5]new = 0.370 M and the system is allowed to once again reach equilibrium.
SbCl5(g) <-> SbCl3(g) + Cl2(g) K = 2.50×10-2 at 521 K

(a) In which direction will the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium? _________to the right to the left
(b) What are the new concentrations of reactants and products after the system reaches equilibrium?

[SbCl5] = ____M
[SbCl3] = ___M
[Cl2] = ___M

Answer:

a) The equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

b) The new equilibrium concentrations after reestablishment of the equilibrium :

[SbCl_5]=(0.370-x) M=(0.370-0.0233) M=0.3467 M

[SbCl_3]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

[Cl_2]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

Explanation:

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

a) Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

On increase in amount of reactant

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

If the reactant is increased, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where more product formation is taking place. As the number of moles of SbCl_5 is  increasing .So, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

b)

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

Concentration of SbCl_5  = 0.195 M

Concentration of SbCl_3  = 6.98\times 10^{-2} M

Concentration of Cl_2  = 6.98\times 10^{-2} M

On adding more [SbCl_5 to 0.370 M at equilibrium :

SbCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons SbCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)

Initially

0.370 M         6.98\times 10^{-2}M    

At equilibrium:

(0.370-x)M   (6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M  

The equilibrium constant of the reaction  = K_c

K_c=2.50\times 10^{-2}

The equilibrium expression is given as:

K_c=\frac{[SbCl_3][Cl_2]}{[SbCl_5]}

2.50\times 10^{-2}=\frac{(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M\times (6.98\times 10^{-2}+x)M}{(0.370-x) M}

On solving for x:

x = 0.0233 M

The new equilibrium concentrations after reestablishment of the equilibrium :

[SbCl_5]=(0.370-x) M=(0.370-0.0233) M=0.3467 M

[SbCl_3]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

[Cl_2]=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+x) M=(6.98\times 10^{-2}+0.0233) M=0.0931 M

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Mass of compound = 0.24 g and, mass of boron = 0.096 g percentage of boron in the compound = mass of boron / mass of compound * 100 = 0.096/0.24 * 100 = 40% mass of oxygen = 0.144 g again, mass of compound = 0.24 g percentage of oxygen in compound = mass of oxygen/mass of of compound * 100 = 0.144/0.24 * 100 = 60%

Describe a gas in terms of shape, volume, and compressibility.
pychu [463]

Answer: Below (=

Explanation:

There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. The kinetic-molecular theory explains why gases are more compressible than either liquids or solids. Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.
