\text{H}_2\stackrel{-2}{\text{S}} + \text{H}_2\stackrel{-1}{\text{O}_2} \to \; \stackrel{0}{\text{S}} + 2\; \text{H}_2\stackrel{-2}{\text{O}}

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Find the oxidation state for each element.

The oxidation state of H is +1 in most compounds.

  • The S atom in H₂S is bonded to two H atoms. The oxidation state of S in H₂S will be -(2 × (+1)) = -2.
  • Two O atom in H₂O₂ are bonded to two H atoms. On average, the oxidation state for each O atom in H₂O₂ will be - 1/2 × (2 × (+1)) = -1.
  • S has an oxidation state of 0 when it is not bonded to any other element;
  • The O atom in H₂O is bonded to two H atoms. The oxidation state of O in H₂O will be -(2 × (+1)) = -2.

Changes in oxidation states:

  • S: from -2 to 0.
  • O: from -1 to -2.

Each S atom will reduce two O atoms. There are two O atoms in each H₂O₂ molecule. There's only one S atom in each H₂S molecule. As a result, pairing one H₂O₂ with one H₂S will balance the change in oxidation state.

Each H₂O₂ contains two O atoms. The two O atoms will produce two H₂O molecules. Each H₂S molecule will lead to one S molecule. Thus the coefficient for H₂O will be two and the coefficient for the rest three species will be one.

The equilibrium constant Kp for the reaction (CH3),CCI (g) = (CH3),C=CH, (g) + HCl (g) is 3.45 at 500. K. (5.00 x 10K) Calculate
Karolina [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_p for the reaction is 6.32 and concentrations of (CH_3)_2C=CH,HCl\text{ and }(CH_3)_3CCl is 0.094 M, 0.094 M and 0.106 M respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Relation of K_p with K_c is given by the formula:

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

where,

K_p = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 3.45

K_c = equilibrium constant in terms of concentration = ?

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

T = temperature = 500 K

\Delta n_g = change in number of moles of gas particles = n_{products}-n_{reactants}=2-1=1

Putting values in above equation, we get:

3.45=K_c\times (0.0821\times 500)^{1}\\\\K_c=\frac{3.45}{0.0821\times 500}=0.084

The equation used to calculate concentration of a solution is:

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles}}{\text{Volume (in L)}}

Initial moles of (CH_3)_3CCl(g) = 1.00 mol

Volume of the flask = 5.00 L

So, \text{Concentration of }(CH_3)_3CCl=\frac{1.00mol}{5.00L}=0.2M

For the given chemical reaction:

                (CH_3)_3CCl(g)\rightarrow (CH_3)_2C=CH(g)+HCl(g)

Initial:               0.2                    -                        -

At Eqllm:          0.2 - x               x                       x

The expression of K_c for above reaction follows:

K_c=\frac{[(CH_3)_2C=CH]\times [HCl]}{[(CH_3)_3CCl]}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.084=\frac{x\times x}{0.2-x}\\\\x^2+0.084x-0.0168=0\\\\x=0.094,-0.178

Negative value of 'x' is neglected because initial concentration cannot be more than the given concentration

Calculating the concentration of reactants and products:

[(CH_3)_2C=CH]=x=0.094M

[HCl]=x=0.094M

[(CH_3)_3CCl]=(0.2-x)=(0.2-0.094)=0.106M

Hence, the value of K_p for the reaction is 6.32 and concentrations of (CH_3)_2C=CH,HCl\text{ and }(CH_3)_3CCl is 0.094 M, 0.094 M and 0.106 M respectively.

What is the theoretical yield of a reaction?
mestny [16]
I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.

g A 500. mL solution contains 0.665 M NaC2H3O2 and 0.475 M HC2H3O2. What mass of HCl in grams needs to be added for the solution
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

7.38g HCl

Explanation:

Using H-H equation for acetic buffer:

pH = pKa + log [NaC2H3O2] / [HC2H3O2]

<em>Where pKa is -log Ka = 4.74 and [] could be taken as moles of each compound.</em>

The initial moles of each specie is:

[NaC2H3O2]:

0.500L * (0.665mol/L) = 0.3325moles

[HC2H3O2]:

0.500L * (0.475mol/L) = 0.2375 moles

That means total moles are:

[NaC2H3O2] + [HC2H3O2] = 0.57 moles <em>(1)</em>

And solving H-H equation for a pH of 4.21:

4.21 = 4.74 + log [NaC2H3O2] / [HC2H3O2]

0.29512 = [NaC2H3O2] / [HC2H3O2] <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (1) in (2):

0.29512 = 0.57mol - [HC2H3O2] / [HC2H3O2]

0.29512 [HC2H3O2] = 0.57mol - [HC2H3O2]

1.29512 [HC2H3O2] = 0.57mol

[HC2H3O2] = 0.44 moles

The HCl reacts with NaC2H3O2 producing HC2H3O2, that means you need to add:

0.44 moles - 0.2375 moles =

0.2025 moles of HCl

Using molar mass of HCl (36.45g/mol), to convert these moles to grams:

0.2025 moles * (36.45g/mol) =

<h3>7.38g HCl</h3>
