Answer:

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if there is no net flow of heat between them.

Explanation:

Two Physical systems are said to be in thermal equilibrium if there is no net flow of heat energy between them when they are connected and both of the system is at the same temperature.

Thermal equilibrium is of two varieties i.e Two thermally connected bodies and Internal thermal equilibrium.

If two bodies are thermally connected to each other then there will only transfer of the heat to maintain equilibrium but no transfer of the matter and mass.

Also, a internal thermal equilibrium is maintained in a isolated body where there is no transfer of the heat from the body outside or inside of it.

Thermal equilibrium follows zeroth law of thermodynamics which says that Two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with each other if they individually are in thermal equilibrium with a third body.

The equilibrium constant, Kc, for the following reaction is 0.967 at 650 K. 2NH3(g) N2(g) 3H2(g) When a sufficiently large sampl

Answer: Concentration of $NH_3$ in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium concentration of $H_2$ = 0.729 M

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)$

Initial conc. x 0 0

At eqm. conc. (x-2y) M (y) M (3y) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be:

3y = 0.729 M

y = 0.243 M

$K_c=\frac{[y]\times [3y]^3}{[x-2y]^2}$

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

$K_c=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}$

$0.967=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}$

$x=0.80$

concentration of $NH_3$ in the equilibrium mixture = $0.80-2\times 0.243=0.31$

Thus concentration of $NH_3$ in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M

Tell me why in Louisiana it always gotta freaking have a hurricane

Gala2k [10]

Why do so many storms target the state? The easterly winds typically blowing across Jacksonville in the summer flow out of the Azores/Bermuda high-pressure system which also steers many hurricanes into the Gulf. In June and October, storms are more likely to move up the Gulf from the south and southwest.

How many moles of Na2Cr2O7 contain 14 moles of oxygen atoms?

sergiy2304 [10]

The number of moles of sodium dichromate from the number of moles of oxygen atoms can be determined through stoichiometry. Using the molecular formula of the compound, Na2Cr2O7, 1 mole of the compound contains 7 moles of oxygen. Hence, 14 moles O2*(1 mole Na2Cr2O7/ 7 mole O2) is equal to 2 moles <span>Na2Cr2O7.</span>

Answer:

Crossing over Mitosis

Explanation:

A process called meiosis ensures siblings share just about 50% of their genotype. That's how siblings can have different DNA. Meiosis is a form of cell division that is only used to produce a special category of cells, called gametes.
