4 0

Answer:

it's not

Explanation:

gasoline is not soluble in water in gasoline is a complex mixture of nonpolar compounds such as long-chain hydrocarbons etc water is a polar molecule as a result of the gasoline molecules cannot enter water and borla solution

Given that Kp = 3.5 x 10-4 for the reaction 2 CO(g) <=> C(graphite) + CO2(g), what is the partial pressure of CO2(g) at eq
spin [16.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The partial pressure of carbon dioxide at equilibrium is 0.0056 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical equation follows:

                     2CO(g)\rightleftharpoons C\text{ (graphite)}+CO_2(g)

<u>Initial:</u>             4.00

<u>At eqllm:</u>       4.00-2x        x                 x

The expression of K_p for above reaction follows:

K_p=\frac{p_{CO_2}}{(p_{CO})^2}

The partial pressure of pure solids and liquids are taken as 1 in the equilibrium constant expression.

We are given:

K_p=3.5\times 10^{-4}

Putting values in above expression, we get:

3.5\times 10^{-4}=\frac{x}{(4-2x)^2}\\\\x=0.0056,718.28

Neglecting the value of x = 718.28 because equilibrium pressure cannot be greater than initial pressure

Partial pressure of CO_2 = 0.0056 atm

Hence, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide at equilibrium is 0.0056 atm

how is rock breaking down into small pieces different from a fence rusting? use chemical and mechanical weathering to help expla
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Rusting is a chemical change while breaking down of ricks may just be due to mechanical weathering of rocks

Explanation:

Rusting is a chemical reaction. Rust refers to hydrated iron III oxide. This substance is soft and flakes easily hence making the iron soft and brittle. The entire process of rusting is an electrochemical reaction set up with water as the electrolyte.

Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking big rocks into smaller pieces. The process usually occurs near the surface of the earth. The cool nights and hot days always cause rocks to expand and contract. This movement can cause rocks to crack and break apart. The entire process is a physical process.

Hence rusting makes iron brittle and flake by a chemical process while mechanical weathering break rocks in pieces by a physical process.
