A) Hydrochloric acid can cause skin and eye burns, so gloves and goggles must be worn.
B) Hydrochloric acid has irritating vapors, and must be used in the fume hood
C) The vial may build up pressure. Be sure to vent the vial frequently, and keep the glass sash of the fume hood between you and the vial.

Answer:

E) All of the above.

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the acidic nature of the HCl implies its corrosiveness, when it is in contact with the skin and eyes the burning starts immediately, so gloves and goggles must be worn. Next, the fuming hydrochloric acid (37% by mass) is volatile so it gives off even when dissolved into water, so it must be used in the fume hood. Then, since vapors are produced during the chemical reaction, an overpressure could be attained, that's why we must keep the glass sash of the fume hood between us and the vial. As a common risk, the vial could be dropped causing the hydrochloric acid to splash, so we must keep the vial well inside the hood.

Best regards.

In which of the following reactions does a decrease in the volume of the reaction vessel at constant
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is: A) 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)

Explanation:

According to the Le Chatelier's principle, change in the volume of the reaction system causes equilibrium to shift in the direction that reduces the effect of the volume change.

When the <u>volume decreases then the pressure of the reaction vessel increases, then the equilibrium shifts towards the reaction side that produces less number of moles of gas.</u>

<u />

A) 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)

The number of moles of reactant is 3 and number of moles of product is 2.

<u>Therefore, when volume decreases, the equilibrium shifts towards the product side, thereby </u><em><u>favoring the formation of products.</u></em>

B) NO₂(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO₂(g)

The number of moles of reactant and product both is 2.

<u>Therefore, when the volume decreases, the equilibrium does not shift in any direction.</u>

C) H₂(g) + I₂(g) → 2HI(g)

The number of moles of reactant and product both is 2.

<u>Therefore, when the volume decreases, the equilibrium does not shift in any direction.</u>

D) 2O₃(g) → 3O₂(g)

The number of moles of reactant is 2 and number of moles of product is 3.

<u>Therefore, when volume decreases, the equilibrium shifts towards the reactant side, thereby </u><em><u>favoring the formation of reactants.</u></em>

E) MgCO₃(s) → MgO(s) + CO₂(g)

The number of moles of reactant is 1 and number of moles of product is 2.

<u>Therefore, when volume decreases, the equilibrium shifts towards the reactant side, thereby </u><em><u>favoring the formation of reactants.</u></em>
