Answer: The equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 0.0421.

Explanation:

PCl_5\rightleftharpoons PCl_3+Cl_2

Concentration of [PCl_5] =  0.0095 M

Concentration of [PCl_3] =  0.020 M

Concentration of [Cl_2] =  0.020 M

The expression of the equilibrium constant is given as:

K_c=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}=\frac{0.020 M\times 0.020 M}{0.0095 M}

K_c=0.0421 (An equilibrium constant is an unit less constant)

The equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 0.0421.

Answer: 0.042

Explanation:- Equilibrium constant is the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each term raised to their stochiometric coefficients.

PCl_5(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)

K_c=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}

Given :[PCl_5]= 0.0095 M

[PCl_3] = 0.020 M

[Cl_2] = 0.020 M

Putting the given values n the equation:

K_c=\frac{[0.020][0.020]}{[0.0095]}=0.042

1. Phosphorous reacts with bromine to form phosphorous tribromide. If 35.0 grams of bromine
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

70.6 %

Explanation:

First step, we define the reaction:

2P + 3Br₂  →  2PBr₃

We determine the moles of reactant:

35 g . 1mol / 159.8 g = 0.219 moles

We assume, the P is in excess, so the bromine is the limiting reagent.

3 moles of Br₂ can produce 2 moles of phophorous tribromide

Then, 0.219 moles may produce (0.219 . 2) /3 = 0.146 moles of PBr₃

We convert moles to mass:

0.146 mol .  270.67 g /mol = 39.5 g

That's the 100 % yield reaction, also called theoretical yield. The way to determine the % yield is:

(Yield produced / Thoeretical yield) . 100

(27.9 / 39.5) . 100 = 70.6 %

In the following redox reaction which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent? AlCl3 + Na NaCl + Al
horrorfan [7]

Answer :  Al

Explanation :

- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).

- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).

- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.

Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.

So Al is the oxidizing agent..

What decides if an atom will be a cation or an anion?
JulijaS [17]

The loss or gain of electrons

Explanation:

The loss or gain of electrons determines if an atom will become a cation or anion.

A cation is a positively charge ion

An anion is a negatively charged ion.

In an atom, we have sub-atomic particles:

 Protons are the positively charged particles

 Electrons are negatively charged

  Neutrons carry no charges

Only electrons can be lost or gained in chemical processes that forms cations and anions.

When a neutral atom gains electron, it has more electrons than protons. This makes it negatively charged and we call it an anion.

When a neutral atom loses an electron, the number of protons is more. We call it a cation.
