Answer : The value of K_c of the reaction is 10.5 and the reaction is product favored.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of CH_3OH at equilibrium = 0.0406 mole

Moles of CO at equilibrium = 0.170 mole

Moles of H_2 at equilibrium = 0.302 mole

Volume of solution = 2.00 L

First we have to calculate the concentration of CH_3OH,CO\text{ and }H_2 at equilibrium.

\text{Concentration of }CH_3OH=\frac{\text{Moles of }CH_3OH}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.0406mole}{2.00L}=0.0203M

\text{Concentration of }CO=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.170mole}{2.00L}=0.085M

\text{Concentration of }H_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.302mole}{2.00L}=0.151M

Now we have to calculate the value of equilibrium constant.

The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

CO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH(g)

The expression of equilibrium constant K_c for the reaction will be:

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

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

K_c=\frac{(0.0203)}{(0.085)\times (0.151)^2}

K_c=10.5

Therefore, the value of K_c of the reaction is, 10.5

There are 3 conditions:

When K_{c}>1; the reaction is product favored.

When K_{c}; the reaction is reactant favored.

When K_{c}=1; the reaction is in equilibrium.

As the value of K_{c}>1. So, the reaction is product favored.

Which of these substances has the lowest pH? 0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 0.05 M HCl, pOH = 12.7 0.005 M KOH, pOH = 2.3
vagabundo [1.1K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 ; Has the lowest pH

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the question;

pH = -Log [OH]

or pH = 14 - pOH

Therefore;

For 0.5 M HBr

[H+] = 0.5 M

pH = - Log [0.5]

     = 0.30

For;  pOH = 13.5

pH = 14 - pOH

     = 14 -13.5

     = 0.5

For; 0.05 M HCl

pH = - log [H+]

[H+] = 0.05

pH = - Log [0.05]

     = 1.30

For; pOH = 12.7

pH = 14 -pOH

     = 14 -12.7

     = 1.30

For;  0.005 M KOH,

pOH = - log [OH]

[OH-] = 0.005

pOH = - Log 0.005

        = 2.30

pH = 14 - 2.30

     = 11.7

For; pOH = 2.3

   pH = 14 -pOH

         = 14- 2.3

         = 11.7

For a price ceiling to be a binding constraint on the market, the government must set it a above the equilibrium price. b below
beks73 [17]

Answer:

B. Below the equilibrium price

Explanation:Price ceiling is the legal price,impose by The Government or Regulatory agencies above which a product should not be sold. It is also a price control mechanism through which the Government and other Regulatory agencies check the excesses of producers and the middle men(Whole sellers and retailers). The price ceiling has to be fixed below the equilibrium price for it to be binding, because businesses are interested mainly for profit maximization.

A 50.0 mL sample of a 1.00 M solution of CuSO4 is mixed with 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH in a calorimeter. The temperature of both sol
Reika [66]

Answer : The enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the solution

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the solution

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 12.1J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water or solution = Density\times Volume=1/mL\times 100.0mL=100.0g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(26.3-20.2)^oC=6.1^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(12.1J/^oC\times 6.1^oC)+(100.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 6.1^oC)]

q=2623.61J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change for the process.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 2626.61 J

n = number of moles of copper sulfate used = Concentration\times Volume=1M\times 0.050L=0.050mole

\Delta H=\frac{2623.61J}{0.050mole}=52472.2J/mole=52.5kJ/mole

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.
