Answer:

The equilibrium pressure of HCl is 5.40 atm

Explanation:

Kc = [HCl]^2/[H2][Cl2]

Initial pressure of H2 = 3.46 atm and Cl2 = 3.46 atm

Let the equilibrium pressure of HCl be y

From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of H2 to HCl is 1:2, equilibrium pressure of H2 is (3.46 - 0.5y)

Also, from the y of reaction, mole ratio of Cl2 to HCl is 1:2, equilibrium pressure of Cl2 is (3.46 - 0.5y)

Kc = 50.1

50.1 = y^2/(3.46 -y)(3.46 - y)

50.1(11.9716 - 3.46y + 0.25y^2) = y^2

12.525y^2 - 173.346y + 599.77716 = y^2

11.525y^2 - 173.346y + 599.77716 = 0

y^2 - 15.04y + 52.04 = 0

The value of y is obtained using the quadratic formula

y = [15.04 - (sqrt (-15.04^2 - 4×1×52.04))] ÷ 2(1) = (15.04 - 4.25) ÷ 2 = 10.79 ÷ 2 = 5.40 atm (to 2 decimal places)

Select the three most acidic hydrogen atoms in lactic acid, CH3CH(OH)CO2H, and rank them in order of decreasing acidity. Explain
Olin [163]
It is easier to determine this if we draw the structural formula of lactic acid as shown in the attached picture. There are three functional groups in lactic acid: carboxyl group, hydroxyl group, and the parent alkane chain. Any of the hydrogens in the alkane chain is the least acidic. Then, it is followed by the H in the hydroxyl group. The most acidic is the H in the carboxyl group.
