Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

For the given equation:

C(s) + H_2O (g)\leftrightharpoons CO(g) + H_2(g)

Given that reaction is an endothermic reaction.

For the given options:

a)Adding more C

If the concentration of C that is the reactant is increased, so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease of concentration of C takes place. Therefore, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction to wards the formation of hydrogen gas.

b) Adding more H_2O

If the concentration of water that is the reactant is increased, so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease of concentration of water  takes place. Therefore, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction towards the formation of hydrogen gas.

c) Raising the temperature  of the reaction mixture

If the temperature is increased,heat of the equilibrium mixture will also increase so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in heat that is decrease in temperature occurs.

As, this is an endothermic reaction, forward reaction will decrease the temperature. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction that is towards the formation of hydrogen gas.  

d) Increasing the volume  of reaction mixture

If the volume of the container is increased, the pressure will decrease according to Boyle's Law. Now, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where increase in pressure is taking place. As the number of moles of gas molecules is greater at the product side. So, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction that is towards the formation of hydrogen gas.  

e) Adding a catalyst  to reaction mixture

Role of catalyst is to attain the equilibrium quickly without disturbing the state of equilibrium. Hence, addition of catalyst will not change the equilibrium of the reaction.  

f) Adding an inert gas to reaction mixture

Adding inert gas to the mixture at constant volume will not effect the equilibrium. Hence, addition of an inert gas will not change the equilibrium of the reaction.

Hospital patients are administered oxygen from an pressurized
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

32000atm

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law equation;

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (

V2 = final volume (L)

According to the question below:

P1 = 160.0 atm

P2 = 3.0 atm

V1 = 600L

V2 = ?

Using P1V1 = P2V2

160 × 600 = 3 × V2

96000 = 3V2

V2 = 96000/3

V2 = 32000atm

In the reaction BaCO3 + 2HNO3 + Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O, what mass of Ba(NO3)2 can be formed by combining 55 g BaCO3 and 26 g HNO3
Nataliya [291]

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, the mass of barium nitrate produced is 54.9 g.

<h3>Stoichiometry</h3>

The term stoichiometry refers to mass - volume relationships. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount, mass or volume of reactants and products from the balanced reaction equation.

The equation of the reaction is written as follows;

BaCO3 + 2HNO3 ------>  Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O

Number of moles of BaCO3  = 55 g/197.34 g/mol = 0.28 moles

Number of moles of HNO3 = 26 g/63.01 g/mol = 0.41 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of BaCO3 reacts with 2 moles of HNO3

0.28 moles of BaCO3 reacts with 0.28 moles ×  2 moles/1 mole = 0.56 moles

There is not enough HNO3 hence it is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 produced  is obtained from;

2 moles of HNO3  yields 1 mole of Ba(NO3)2

0.41 moles of HNO3  yields 0.41 moles × 1 mole/2 moles

= 0.21 moles of Ba(NO3)2

Mass of  Ba(NO3)2  = 0.21 moles  × 261.337 g/mol = 54.9 g

The energy of a pendulum is recorded at different positions in the table below. Use the data in the table to determine the amoun
natta225 [31]

Answer:

36.55 J

Explanation:

PE = Potential energy

KE = Kinetic energy

TE = Total energy

The following data were obtained from the question:

Position >> PE >>>>> KE >>>>>> TE

1 >>>>>>>> 72.26 >> 27.74 >>>> 100

2 >>>>>>>> 63.45 >> x >>>>>>>> 100

3 >>>>>>>> 58.09 >> 41.91 >>>>> 100

The kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 can be obtained as follow:

From the table above, at position 2,

Potential energy (PE) = 63.45 J

Kinetic energy (KE) = unknown = x

Total energy (TE) = 100 J

TE = PE + KE

100 = 63.45 + x

Collect like terms

100 – 63.45 = x

x = 36.55 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 is 36.55 J.
