A quantity of liquid methanol, CH 3OH, is introduced into a rigid 3.00-L vessel, the vessel is sealed, and the temperature is ra

ised to 500K. At this temperature, the methanol vaporizes and decomposes according to the reaction CH 3OH(g) CO(g) + 2 H 2(g), K c= 6.90×10 –2. If the concentration of H 2 in the equilibrium mixture is 0.426M, what mass of methanol was initially introduced into the vessel?

Answer:

74.3g of methanol were introduced into the vessel

Explanation:

In the equilibrium:

CH₃OH(g) ⇄ CO(g) + 2H₂(g)

Kc is defined as the ratio between concentrations in equilibrium of :

Kc = 6.90x10⁻² = [CO] [H₂]² / [CH₃OH]

Some methanol added to the vessel will react producing H₂ and CO. And equilibrium concentrations must be:

[CH₃OH] = ? - X

[CO] = X

[H₂] = 2X

<em>Where ? is the initial concentration of methanol</em>

As [H₂] = 2X = 0.426M; X = 0.213M

<em>[CH₃OH] = ? - 0.213M</em>

[CO] = 0.213M

[H₂] = 0.426M

Replacing in Kc to solve equilibrium concentration of methanol:

6.90x10⁻² = [0.213] [0.426]² / [CH₃OH]

[CH₃OH] = 0.560

As:

[CH₃OH] = ? - 0.213M = 0.560M

? = 0.773M

0.7733M was the initial concentration of methanol. As volume of vessel is 3.00L, moles of methanol are:

3.00L * (0.773 mol / L) = 2.319 moles methanol.

Using molar mass of methanol (32.04g/mol), initial mass of methanol added was:

2.319 moles * (32.04g / mol) =

14) How many molecules are there in 9.34 kg of water?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Water has 18 grams per mole so 9 grams is 0.5 moles of water. There are 6.022* 10^23 molecules in a mole. Each water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogens.

"how many grams of calcium are consumed when 156.8 ml of oxygen"
Akimi4 [234]
Your question is incomplete. However, I found a similar problem fromanother website as shown in the attached picture.

To solve this problem, you must know that at STP, the volume for any gas is 22.4 L/mol. So,

Moles O₂: 156.8 mL * 1 L/1000 mL* 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.007 moles
Mass calcium: 0.007 mol O₂ * 2 mol Ca/1 mol O₂ * 40 g/mol Ca =<em> 0.56 g Ca</em>

What is the pH of a solution with an [H+] of (a) 5.4 x 10-10, (b) 4.3 x 10-5, (c) 5.4 x 10-7?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

a. 9.2

b. 4.4

c. 6.3

Explanation:

In order to calculate the pH of each solution, we will use the definition of pH.

pH = -log [H⁺]

(a) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 9.2

Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.

(b) [H⁺] = 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ = 4.4

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

(c) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ = 6.3

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

Help ASAP pleaseeee!
Bond [772]

Answer:

When plastics decomposed, they produce methane gas, which contributes to global warming (not questioning beliefs on the matter). Plastic debris also is an issue affecting the ecology of an environment and can cause issues for the affected organisms. But the greenhouse gases released from biodegradable plastics is likely a greater concern.
