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)

A 2.5 L container is filled with propane. The ambient temperature is 25°C and the
madam [21]

Answer:

The pressure inside the container will be 3.3 atmospheres

Explanation:

The relationship between the temperature and pressure of a gas occupying a fixed volume is given by Gay-Lussac's law which states that the pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its temperature on the kelvin scale when the volume is kept constant.

Mathematically, it expressed as: P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

where P₁ is initial pressure, T₁ is initial temperature, P₂ is final pressure, T₂ is final temperature.

The above expression shows that the ratio of the pressure and temperature is always constant.

In the given question, the gas in the can attains the temperature of its environment.

P₁ = 3 atm,

T₁ = 25 °C = (273.15 + 25) K = 298.15 K,

P₂ = ?

T₂ = (55 °C = 273.15 + 55) K = 328.15 K

Substituting the values in the equation

3/298.15 = P₂/328.15

P₂ = 3 × 328.15/298.15

P₂ = 3.3 atm

Therefore, the pressure inside the container will be 3.3 atmospheres

Butane (C4 H10(g), mc031-1.jpgHf = –125.6 kJ/mol) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 , mc031-2.jpgHf = –393.5 kJ/
ankoles [38]

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane is:

2C_{4}H_{10}(g) +13 O_{2}(g)-->8CO_{2}(g)+10H_{2}O(g)

ΔH_{reaction}^{0} = Σn_{products}ΔH_{f}^{0}_{(products)}-Σn_{reactants}ΔH_{f}^{0}_{(reactants)}

                         = [{8*(-393.5kJ/mol)}+{10*(-241.82kJ/mol)}]-[{2*(-125.6kJ/mol)}+13*(0 kJ/mol)}]=[-3148kJ/mol+(-2418.2kJ/mol)]-[(-251.2kJ/mol)+0]

                      = -5315 kJ/mol

Calculating the enthalpy of combustion per mole of butane:

1mol C_{4}H_{10}*( \frac{-5315kJ}{2mol C_{4}H_{10} })=-2657.5 \frac{kJ}{molC_{4}H_{10}}

Therefore the heat of combustion per one mole butane is -2657.5 kJ/mol

Correct answer: -2657.5 kJ/mol

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. What effect will decreasing the temperature have on the system? DH=+890kJCO2(g)+
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Option B. The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of the reactants.

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

CO₂ + 2H₂O <=> CH₄ + O₂

Enthalpy change (ΔH) = +890 KJ

The reaction illustrated by the equation is endothermic reaction since the enthalpy change (ΔH) is positive.

Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the right and decrease the temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the left.

Therefore, decreasing the temperature of the system illustrated by the equation above, will shift the reaction to the left in the direction of the reactants.

Thus, option B gives the right answer to the question.
