<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_p for the given equation is 3.065

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the partial pressure of phosgene we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = ?

V = Volume of the gas = 1.50 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 700 K

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

n = number of moles of phosgene = 0.0340 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

p_{COCl_2}\times 1.50L=0.0340\times 0.0821\text{ L. atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 700K\\\\p_{COCl_2}=\frac{0.0340\times 0.0821\times 700}{1.50}=1.303atm

As, initially phosgene is present in the system. So, the reaction is going backwards.

We are given:

Equilibrium partial pressure of CO = 0.509 atm

For the given chemical equation:

                    CO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons COCl_2(g)

<u>Initial:</u>                                          1.303

<u>At eqllm:</u>        x            x             1.303-x

Evaluating the value of 'x'

\Rightarrow x=0.509

So, equilibrium partial pressure of chlorine gas = x = 0.509 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of phosgene = 1.303 - x  = [1.303 - 0.509] = 0.794 atm

The expression of K_p for above equation follows:

K_p=\frac{p_{COCl_2}}{p_{CO}\times p_{Cl_2}}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{0.794}{0.509\times 0.509}\\\\K_p=3.065

Hence, the value of K_p for the given equation is 3.065

Why is hydrogen ion generation essential for atp production during photosynthesis
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

It is involved in the conversion of ADP to ATP

Explanation:

Most enzymes in biological systems function by reversible uptake and release of hydrogen in redox processes. The enzyme that catalyses the conversion of ADP to ATP also works by hydrogen ion transfer. Hence H+ is required in photosynthesis for the conversion of ADP to ATP

Would a false positive from the reaction between the inoculating loop and hydrogen peroxide
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The false positive from the response of hydrogen peroxide and the immunizing circle would be created by poor specificity. The recipe for specificity is TN/TN+FP. False-positive outcomes can be ascribed to meddling substances in nature where the strips are put away or utilized, for example, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or fade (hypochlorite).
