Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

Sinkholes are one of the distinct geological features. These are circular depressions that are formed due to the collapse of the ground surface. These are formed in the region where the rocks are either carbonate (limestone), salt rocks or gypsum which is easily dissolved when it comes in contact with the groundwater flow. It results in the formation of caves. The sinkholes are characterized by the presence of karst topography above them on the surface and sinkholes are often considered to be one of the main features of the karst topography.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

Answer:

Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering-resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions.

A 2.5 mol sample of phosphorus pentachloride, PCl5 dissociates at 160C and 1.00atm to give 0.338 mol of phosphorus trichloride a

Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Moles of phosphorus pentachloride present initially = 2.5 mol

Moles of phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium = 0.338 mol

$PCl_5\rightleftharpoons PCl_3+Cl_2$

Initially

2.5 mol 0 0

At equilibrium:

(2.5 - x) mol x x

So, from above, the moles of phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium , x= 0.338 mol

Mass of 0.338 moles of phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium:

= 0.338 mol × 137.5 g/mol = 46.475 g

Moles of phosphorus pentachloride present at equilibrium :

= (2.5 - 0.338) mol = 2.162 mol

Mass of 2.162 moles of phosphorus pentachloride at equilibrium:

= 2.162 mol × 208.5 g/mol = 450.777 g

Moles of chloride gas present at equilibrium : 0.338 mol

Mass of 0.338 moles of chloride gas at equilibrium:

= 0.338 mol × 71 g/mol = 23.998 g
