Answer:

(a) Ka = \frac{(SO3)^{2} }{(S)^{2}*(O2)^{3}  }

(b) Kb = \frac{(SO2)^{1} }{(S)^{1} *(O2)^{1} }

Explanation:

Correct equation: 2S(s) + 3O_{2}(g) ⇒ 2SO_{3}(g)\\

S(s) + O_{2}(g) ⇒ 2SO_{2}(g)\\

Equilibrium constant refers to a relation between products and reactants of an equilibrium reaction with respect to the components concentration and coefficients.

generally in an equilibrium reaction between reactant A, B, C and D shown below

aA+bB ⇒ cC + dD

the equilibrium constant is represented by

k = \frac{C^{c} *D^{d} }{A^{a} *B^{b} }

comparing this with the equation in the problem the equilibrium constants ka and kb are;

Ka = \frac{(SO3)^{2} }{(S)^{2}*(O2)^{3}  }

Kb = \frac{(SO2)^{1} }{(S)^{1} *(O2)^{1} }

The nonmetals helium, neon, and argon and the metals copper, silver, and gold are among only a few elements that are found in na
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

A pure element is a pure substance that has only one kind of atoms. If a substance is present in nature in elemental form, it means that the element is not very reactive as reactive elements exist in the form of their compounds with atoms of other elements. Element can be categorized as a metal or a non-metal based on some physical observable properties. Generally, metals are shiny lustrous solids and nonmetals are gases. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity whereas nonmetals are not conductors.

What determines an object’s ability to float?
Nezavi [6.7K]
Simply put, density is how tightly “stuff” is packed into a defined space.

For example, a suitcase jam-packed with clothes and souvenirs has a high density, while the same suitcase containing two pairs of underwear has low density. Size-wise, both suitcases look the same, but their density depends on the relationship between their mass and volume.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Volume is the amount of space that an object takes up in three dimensions.

Density is calculated using the following equation: Density = mass/volume or D = m/v.

If something is heavy for its size, it has a high density. If an object is light for its size it has a low density.

The relative densities of an object and the liquid it is placed in determine whether that object will sink or float.

Relate the intermolecular forces in hydrocarbons to their physical properties and uses
DENIUS [597]

The physical properties of alkenes and alkynes are generally similar to those of alkanes or cycloalkanes with equal numbers of carbon atoms. Alkynes have higher boiling points than alkanes or alkenes, because the electric field of an alkyne, with its increased number of weakly held π electrons, is more easily distorted, producing stronger attractive forces between molecules.
