The system co2(g) + h2(g) ⇀↽ h2o(g) + co(g) is at equilibrium at some temperature. at equilibrium a 4.00 l vessel contains 1.00

mole co2, 1.00 mole h2, 2.40 moles h2o, and 2.40 moles co. how many moles of co2 must be added to the system to bring the equilibrium co concentration to 0.791 mol/l? answer in units of moles.

<u>Answer:</u> The moles of CO_2 added to the system is 7.13 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of CO_2 at equilibrium = 1.00 moles

Moles of H_2 at equilibrium = 1.00 moles

Moles of H_2O at equilibrium = 2.40 moles

Moles of CO at equilibrium = 2.40 moles

Volume of the container = 4.00 L

Concentration is written as:

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles}}{\text{Volume (in L)}}

The given chemical equation follows:

CO_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(g)+CO(g)

The expression of K_c for above equation follows:

K_c=\frac{[CO][H_2O]}{[CO_2][H_2]}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_c=\frac{(\frac{2.40}{4.00})\times (\frac{2.40}{4.00})}{(\frac{1.00}{4.00})\times (\frac{1.00}{4.00})}\\\\K_c=5.76

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Molarity of CO = 0.791 mol/L

Volume of solution = 4.00 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.791M=\frac{\text{Moles of CO}}{4.00L}\\\\\text{Moles of CO}=(0.791mol/\times 4.00L)=3.164mol

Extra moles of CO = (3.164 - 2.40) = 0.764 moles

Let the moles of CO_2 needed be 'x' moles.

Now, equilibrium gets re-established:

              CO_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(g)+CO(g)

Initial:       1.00      1.00              2.40       2.40

At eqllm:   (0.236+x)   0.236      3.164     3.164

Again, putting the values in the expression of K_c, we get:

5.76=\frac{(\frac{3.164}{4.00})\times (\frac{3.164}{4.00})}{(\frac{0.236+x}{4.00})\times (\frac{0.236}{4.00})}\\\\5.76=\frac{10.011}{0.056+0.236x}\\\\x=7.13

Hence, the moles of CO_2 added to the system is 7.13 moles

Answer:

Three chemical elements: hydrogen, oxygen, and helium.

The difference between metals and metalloids is: metalloids have properties in between those of the metals and non-metals and are semiconductors.

The periodic table is organized by the elemts atomic number, it goes from the element with the lowest atomic number (which is hydrogen) to the element with the highest atomic number (oganesson)
