Extensive properties vary with the amount of the substance and include mass, weight, and volume. Intensive properties, in contrast, do not depend on the amount of the substance; they include color, melting point, boiling point, electrical conductivity, and physical state at a given temperature.

The equilibrium constant (Kp) for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5) to phosphorus trichloride (PCl3) and mole

Oksanka [162]

Answer: The partial pressure of $Cl_2$ is 1.86 atm

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_c$

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)$

Pressure at eqm. 0.973 atm 0.548atm x atm

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

$K_c=\frac{(p_{PCl_3}\times (p_{Cl_2})}{(p_{PCl_5})}$

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

$1.05=\frac{(0.548)\times (x)}{(0.973)}$

By solving the term 'x', we get :

x = 1.86 atm

Thus, the partial pressure of $Cl_2$ is 1.86 atm

What is the temperature of CO2 gas if the average speed (actually the root-mean-square speed) of the molecules is 750 m/s?

erastova [34]

Answer:

992.302 K

Explanation:

V(rms) = 750 m/s

V(rms) = √(3RT / M)

V = velocity of the gas

R = ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature of the gas

M = molar mass of the gas

Molar mass of CO₂ = [12 + (16*2)] = 12+32 = 44g/mol

Molar mass = 0.044kg/mol

From

½ M*V² = 3 / 2 RT

MV² = 3RT

K = constant

V² = 3RT / M

V = √(3RT / M)

So, from V = √(3RT / M)

V² = 3RT / M

V² * M = 3RT

T = (V² * M) / 3R

T = (750² * 0.044) / 3 * 8.314

T = 24750000 / 24.942

T = 992.302K

The temperature of the gas is 992.302K

Note : molar mass of the gas was converted from g/mol to kg/mol so the value can change depending on whichever one you use.
