Answer:

D) [PCl5]=0.00765M,[PCl3]=0.117M,and [Cl2]=0.0.117M

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

PCl₅(g) ⇄ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

And knowing:

Kc = [PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

When you add PCl₅ into a flask, this gas will react producing PCl₃ and Cl₂ until [PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

This could be written as:

[PCl₃] = X

[Cl₂] = X

[PCl₅] = 0.125M - X

<em>Where X represents the moles of PCl₅ that react, </em><em>reaction coordinate.</em>

Replacing in Kc expression:

[PCl₃] [Cl₂] / [PCl₅] = 1.80

[X [X] / [0.125 - X] = 1.80

X² = 0.225 - 1.80X

0 = -X² -1.80X + 0.225

Solving for X:

X = -1.9M → False solution, there is no negative concentrations

X = 0.11735M → Right solution.

Replacing, concentrations in equilibrium are:

[PCl₃] = X

[Cl₂] = X

[PCl₅] = 0.125M - X

[PCl₃] = 0.117M

[Cl₂] = 0.117M

[PCl₅] = 0.00765M

And right option is:

<h3>D) [PCl5]=0.00765M,[PCl3]=0.117M,and [Cl2]=0.0.117M</h3>

Which compound is an electrolyte?<br> (1) C6H12O6 (3) CaCl2<br> (2) CH3OH (4) CCl4
slavikrds [6]
I think the correct answer is option 3. CaCl2 is the compound that is an electrolyte when dissolved in water. An electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity in solution. Calcium Chloride when in solution dissociates into ions which allows the flow of current in the solution.

the rate of disappearance of Br- at some moment in time was determined to be 3.5 x 10-4 M/s. What is the rate of appearance of B
ddd [48]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol M/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction

2 Br⁻ ⇒ Br₂

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

The molar ratio of Br⁻ to Br₂ is 2:1.

Step 3: Calculate the rate of appearance of Br₂

The rate of disappearance of Br⁻ at some moment in time was determined to be 3.5 × 10⁻⁴ M/s. The rate of appearance of Br₂ is:

3.5 × 10⁻⁴ mol Br⁻/L.s × (1 mol Br₂/2 mol Br⁻) = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol Br₂/L.s

What is the volume of the liquid in the this diagram?<br>Would it be 37 mL or 36.5 mL?
vivado [14]

The volume of the liquid in this diagram shown above would be equal to 36.5 mL.

<h3>What is a graduated cylinder?</h3>

A graduated cylinder is also known as measuring cylinder and it can be defined as a narrow, cylindrical piece of laboratory equipment with marked lines, which are used to measure the volume of a liquid.

In order to take a reading for the measurement of the volume of a liquid such as water, you should ensure that your eye level is even with the center of the meniscus.

In this scenario, the volume of the liquid in this diagram would be 36.5 mL because each of the small lines on the graduated cylinder measures 0.5 mL.
