The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Phosgene, COCl_2, gained notoriety as a chemical weapon in World War I. Phosgene is produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide with chlorine:  

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

The value of K_c for this reaction is 5.79 at 570 K. What are the equilibrium partial pressures of the three gases if a reaction vessel initially contains a mixture of the reactants in which p_{CO}=p_{Cl_2}=0.265atm and p_{COCl_2}=0.000atm ?

<u>Answer:</u> The equilibrium partial pressure of CO, Cl_2\text{ and }COCl_2 is 0.257 atm, 0.257 atm and 0.008 atm respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The relation of K_c\text{ and }K_p is given by:

K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta n_g}

K_p = Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure

K_c = Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration = 5.79

\Delta n_g = Difference between gaseous moles on product side and reactant side = n_{g,p}-n_{g,r}=1-2=-1

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

T = Temperature = 570 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=5.79\times (0.0821\times 570)^{-1}\\\\K_p=0.124

We are given:

Initial partial pressure of CO = 0.265 atm

Initial partial pressure of chlorine gas = 0.265 atm

Initial partial pressure of phosgene = 0.00 atm

The given chemical equation follows:

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

<u>Initial:</u>            0.265      0.265

<u>At eqllm:</u>        0.265-x    0.265-x        x

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:

0.124=\frac{x}{(0.265-x)\times (0.265-x)}\\\\x=0.0082,8.59

Neglecting the value of x = 8.59 because equilibrium partial pressure cannot be greater than initial pressure

So, the equilibrium partial pressure of CO = (0.265-x)=(0.265-0.008)=0.257atm

The equilibrium partial pressure of Cl_2=(0.265-x)=(0.265-0.008)=0.257atm

The equilibrium partial pressure of COCl_2=x=0.008atm

Hence, the equilibrium partial pressure of CO, Cl_2\text{ and }COCl_2 is 0.257 atm, 0.257 atm and 0.008 atm respectively.

Why is large-scale nuclear fission a rare phenomenon on Earth? A. There isn't enough energy to start a chain reaction in nature.
siniylev [52]

The answer is; C

The radioisotopes in the interior of the earth are not in pure form and have many embedded impurities and are interspersed. Therefore when a neutron is released by a decaying atom, its chances of hitting another radioisotope atom (to continue the chain reaction) are lower than in a manmade nuclear reactor. This way, the radioactive chain reaction in the earth’s interior is not well sustained.

I really need help pls, will pay anything
Triss [41]

Explanation:

For the first part,

 Reaction equation:

         N₂  +  3H₂   →   2NH₃

Given:

Number of moles of NH₃  = 6 moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of N₂  = ?

Solution:

   N₂  +  3H₂   →   2NH₃;

  From the reaction above, we solve from the known specie to the unknown. Ensure that the equation is balanced;

         2 moles of NH₃ is produced from 1 mole of N₂

        6 moles of NH₃ will be produced from \frac{6}{2}  mole of N₂

                                                                      = 3moles of N₂

The number of moles of N₂ is 3 moles

ii.

Given parameters:

Number of moles of sulfur = 2.4moles

Molar mass of sulfur  = 32.07g/mol

Unknown:

Mass of sulfur  = ?

Solution:

The number of moles of any substance can be found using the expression below;

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

  Mass of sulfur  = number of moles of sulfur x molar mass

Insert the parameters and solve;

    Mass of sulfur  = 2.4 x 32.07  = 76.97g

An iron ore sample weighing 0.5562 g is dissolved HCl (aq), and the iron is obtained as Fe2 in solution. This solution is then t
erik [133]

Answer:

\% Fe^{+2}=70%

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we could considering this as a redox titration:

Fe^{+2}+(Cr_2O_7)^{-2}\rightarrow Fe^{+3}+Cr^{+3}

Thus, the balance turns out (by adding both hydrogen ions and water):

Fe^{+2}\rightarrow Fe^{+3}+1e^-\\(Cr_2^{+6}O_7)^{-2}+14H^++6e^-\rightarrow 2Cr^{+3}+7H_2O\\\\6Fe^{+2}+(Cr_2^{+6}O_7)^{-2}+14H^++6e^-\rightarrow Cr^{+3}+7H_2O+6Fe^{+3}+6e^-

Thus, by stoichiometry, the grams of Fe+2 ions result:

m_{Fe^{+2}}=0.04021\frac{molK_2Cr_2O_7}{L}*0.02872L*\frac{6molFe^{+2}}{1molK_2Cr_2O_7}*\frac{56gFe^{+2}}{1molFe^{+2}}=0.388gFe^{+2}

Finally, the mass percent is:

\% Fe^{+2}=\frac{0.388g}{0.5562g}*100\%\\  \% Fe^{+2}=70%

Best regards.
