Answer:

The two ice sheets on Earth today cover most of Greenland and Antarctica. During the last ice age, ice sheets also covered much of North America and Scandinavia. Together, the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets contain more than 99 percent of the freshwater ice on Earth.

Hope this helps! (:

For the reaction a2 + b2 → 2ab, ea(fwd) = 105 kj/mol and ea(rev) = 77 kj/mol. assuming the reaction occurs in one step, calculat

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer is: 28 kJ.
Chemical reaction: A₂ + B₂ ⇄ 2AB.
Ea(forward) = 105 kJ/mol.
Ea(reverse) = 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = ?
<span>The enthalpy change of reaction is the change in the energy of the reactants to the products.
</span>ΔH(reaction) = Ea(forward) - Ea(reverse).
ΔH(reaction) = 105 kJ/mol - 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = 28 kJ/mol; this is endothermic reaction (ΔH <span>> 0).</span>

III. For the following four sections: If you are given the formula, name the

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

15.Potassium oxide

16.Calcium chloride

17.Aluminium sulphide

18.CaS

Explanation:

15.K is the chemical symbol of Potassium and generally the name of the non-metal at the end of a formula has the suffix '-ide' and since O is oxygen, the name becomes Potassium oxide.

16. The same applies here. Ca is Calcium and Cl is Chlorine but since its the non-metal at the end, it ends in -ide. So Calcium chloride.

17.The same applies here too. Al is Aluminium and S is Sulphur so Aluminium sulphide.

18. Calcium's symbol is Ca and that of Sulphur is S and that gives the formula CaS.

At 700 K, the reaction 2SO2(g) + O2(g) <====> 2SO3(g) has the equilibrium constant Kc = 4.3 x 106. At a certain instant, f

Answer:

The system is not in equilibrium and will evolve left to right to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient Qc is defined for a generic reaction:

aA + bB → cC + dD

$Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are not those of equilibrium, but other given concentrations

Chemical Equilibrium is the state in which the direct and indirect reaction have the same speed and is represented by a constant Kc, which for a generic reaction as shown above, is defined:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are those of equilibrium.

This constant is equal to the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Comparing Qc with Kc allows to find out the status and evolution of the system:

If the reaction quotient is equal to the equilibrium constant, Qc = Kc, the system has reached chemical equilibrium.

If the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, Qc> Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. In this case the direct reaction predominates and there will be more product present than what is obtained at equilibrium. Therefore, this product is used to promote the reverse reaction and reach equilibrium. The system will then evolve to the left to increase the reagent concentration.

If the reaction quotient is less than the equilibrium constant, Qc <Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. The concentration of the reagents is higher than it would be at equilibrium, so the direct reaction predominates. Thus, the system will evolve to the right to increase the concentration of products.

In this case:

$Q=\frac{[So_{3}] ^{2} }{[SO_{2} ]^{2}* [O_{2}] }$

$Q=\frac{10^{2} }{0.10^{2} *0.10}$

Q=100,000

100,000 < 4,300,000 (4.3*10⁶)

Q < Kc
