At a given temperature, 3.12 atm of H2 and 5.52 atm of I2 are mixed and allowed to come to equilibrium. The equilibrium pressure

of HI is found to be 1.738 atm. Calculate Kp for the reaction at this temperature.
H2(g) + I2(g) <=> 2 HI(g). Give your answer to 3 decimal places.

Answer: 0.596

Explanation:

For this problem, we want to find K_{p}. To do so, we will need to use the ICE chart. The I in ICE is initial quantity. In this case, it is the initial pressure. Pressure is in atm. The C in ICE is change in each quantity. The E is equilibrium.

          H₂(g) + I₂(g) ⇄ 2HI(g)

I          3.12     5.52         0

C      -0.869  -0.869   +1.738

E       2.251    2.251     1.738

<u>For the steps below, refer to the ICE chart above.</u>

1. Since we were given the initial of H₂, I₂ and equilibrium of 2HI, we can fill those into the chart.

2. Since we were not given the initial for 2HI, we will put 0 in their place.

3. For the change, we need to add pressure to the products to make the reaction reach equilibrium. We would add on the products and subtract from the reactants to equalize the reaction. Since we don't know how much the change in, we can use variable x. We know that the equilibrium of 2HI is 1.738, we know the change is 0.869 because 1.738/2=0.869. Since there are 2 moles of HI, we must divide the equilibrium by 2 to find x, so that we can fill that into the reactants side.

4. With the equilibrium values, we can find the equilibrium pressure. It is products over reactants. We use the values of E.

K_{p} =\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_{2}][I_{2} ] }

The [HI]² comes from 2HI. We more the moles to the exponent when we are calculating the equilibrium pressure.

K_{p} =\frac{(1.738)^2}{(2.251)(2.251)} =0.596

We typically don't put units because K is unitless, but know that the units is atm throughout the entire problem.

There are three factors in which natural selection occurs. Select one statement from the list below that is a true statement abo
azamat

Answer: There is no list in your question. But the three factors in which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Explanation:

Darwin’s theory of natural selection is the way in which organisms change overtime.

These changes allow organisms to become better adapted to their environment and increase their chances for survival.

The three major factors through which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Darwin’s theory of natural selection will occur if the three conditions above are met and unless these factors are in place, natural selection will not occur.
