Answer:

3.9

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction at equilibrium.

CO(g) + Cl₂(g) ↔ COCl₂(g)

We can find the pressures at equilibrium using an ICE chart.

       CO(g) + Cl₂(g) ↔ COCl₂(g)

I       0.96       1.15            0

C        -x           -x            +x

E    0.96-x    1.15-x           x

The sum of the partial pressures is equal to the total pressure.

pCO + pCl₂ + pCOCl₂ = 1.47

(0.96-x) + (1.15-x) + x = 1.47

2.11 - x = 1.47

x = 0.64

The pressures at equilibrium are:

pCO = 0.96 - x = 0.32 atm

pCl₂ = 1.15 - x = 0.51 atm

pCOCl₂ = x = 0.64 atm

The pressure equilibrium constant (Kp) is:

Kp = pCOCl₂ / pCO × pCl₂

Kp = 0.64 / 0.32 × 0.51

Kp = 3.9

How much energy does a 445 nm wave of light have? (The speed of light in a
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To calculate questions like this, you need to make use of the equation below:

E = hν

E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, and ν is the frequency.

Also, another important formula you need for this question is the following:

ν = c / λ

ν is the frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is the wavelength.

Therefore, E = hν = hc/λ.

Also remember to convert nm wavelength to meters.

To answer the question, E = hc/λ = ((6.626*10^-34 J•s)(3*10^8 m/s))/(4.45*10-7 m) = 4.42 • 10^-19 J = A
