A mixture of gaseous CO and H2, called synthesis gas, is used commercially to prepare methanol (CH3OH), a compound considered an

alternative fuel to gasoline. Under equilibrium conditions at 540.2 K, [H2] = 0.067 mol [CO]=0.021 mol/L and [CH3OH]=0.040 mol/L what is the value of Kc for this reaction at 505.0 K?

Answer : The value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 424.3

Explanation :  Given,

Concentration of H_2 at equilibrium = 0.067 mol

Concentration of CO at equilibrium = 0.021 mol

Concentration of CH_3OH at equilibrium = 0.040 mol

The given chemical reaction is:

CO+2H_2\rightarrow CH_3OH

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_c=\frac{[CH_3OH]}{[CO][H_2]^2}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(0.040)}{(0.021)\times (0.067)^2}

K_c=424.3

Thus, the value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 424.3

Calculate the percent yield when 500 grams of carbon dioxide react with an excess of water to produce 640 grams of carbonic acid
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Percent yield =  90.5%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 500 g

Mass of water = excess

Actual yield of carbonic acid = 640 g

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Balanced chemical equation:

CO₂ + H₂O  → H₂CO₃

Number of moles of carbon dioxide

Number of moles  = Mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 500 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 11.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of H₂CO₃ with CO₂.

                              CO₂          :              H₂CO₃

                                 1             :                  1

                               11.4           :                11.4

Mass of carbonic acid:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 11.4 mol × 62.03 g/mol

Mass = 707.14 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield =  640 g/ 707.14 g × 100

Percent yield =  90.5%

What happens when magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide?
I am Lyosha [343]

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. On the other hand, atomic number of iodine is 53 and its electronic configuration is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{5}.

Hence, there are 7 valence electrons in an iodine atom and there are 2 valence electrons in a magnesium atom.

So, one atom of iodine requires one electron from a donor atom to complete its octet. But one magnesium atom contains two valence electrons.

Therefore, one magnesium atom will combine with two iodine atoms to result in the formation of magnesium iodide as follows.  

            Mg^{2+} + 2I^{-} \rightarrow MgI_{2}

Therefore, an ionic bond will be formed when  magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide.

Answer:

1.18x10⁸L of SO₂ and 2.36x10⁸L of H₂S

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

8SO₂(g) + 16H₂S(g) → 16H₂O(l) + 3S₈(s)

To solve this question we must find the moles of S₈ in 4.50x10⁵kg. With these moles and the reaction we can find the moles of SO₂ needed to react (Twice these moles = Moles Of H₂S needed). Using PV = nRT we can find the volume of the gas required:

<em>Moles S₈ - molar mass: 256.52g/mol-</em>

4.50x10⁵kg = 4.50x10⁸g * (1mol / 256.52g) =

1.75x10⁶ moles S₈

<em>Moles SO₂:</em>

1.75x10⁶ moles S₈ * (8mol SO₂ / 3mol S₈) = 4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂

<em>Moles H₂S:</em>

4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂ * 2 = 9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S

The volume could be obtained as follows:

PV = nRT

V = nRT / P

<em>V is volume in liters</em>

<em>n are moles: 4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂ and 9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S</em>

<em>R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK</em>

<em>T is absolute temperature = 22°C + 273.15 = 295.15K</em>

<em>P is pressure = 0.961atm</em>

<em />

Replacing:

Volume SO₂ and H₂S:

4.68x10⁶ moles * 0.082atmL/molK * 295.15K / 0.961atm =

<h3>1.18x10⁸L of SO₂ and:</h3>

<em>9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S</em> * 0.082atmL/molK * 295.15K / 0.961atm =

<h3>2.36x10⁸L of H₂S</h3>
