Answer is: 600 kJ/mol.<span>
Chemical reaction: </span>NO₂(g) + CO(g) ⟶ NO(g) + CO₂(g).

<span> Ea(forward) = 375 kJ/mol.
Ea(reverse) = ? kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = -225 kJ/mol; this is exothermic reaction.
The enthalpy change of reaction is the change in the energy of the reactants to the products.
ΔH(reaction) = Ea(forward) - Ea(reverse).
-225 kJ/mol = 375 kJ/mol - </span>Ea(reverse).
Ea(reverse)<span> = 600 kJ/mol.</span>

Hard water often contains dissolved Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions. One way to soften water is to add phosphates. The phosphate ion forms in
avanturin [10]
<span>5.5×10−2M in calcium chloride and 8.0×10−2M in magnesium nitrate.
What mass of sodium phosphate must be added to 1.5L of this solution to completely eliminate the hard water ion

1) Content of Ca (2+) ions

Calcium chloride = CaCl2

Ionization equation: CaCl2 ---> Ca (2+) + 2 Cl (-)

=> Molar ratios: 1 mol of CaCl2 : 1 mol Ca(2+) : 2 mol Cl(-)

Calculate the number of moles of CaCl2 in 1.5 liters of 5.5 * 10^-2 M solution

M = n / V => n = M*V = 5.5 * 10^ -2 M * 1.5 l = 0.0825 mol CaCl2

=> 0.0825 mol Ca(2+)

2) Number of phosphate ions needed to react with 0.0825 mol Ca(2+)

formula of phospahte ion: PO4 (3-)

molar ratio: 2PO4(3-) + 3Ca(2+) = Ca3 (PO4)2

Proportion: 2 mol PO4(3-) / 3 mol Ca(2+) = x / 0.0825 mol Ca(2+)

=> x = 0.0825 coml Ca(2+) * 2 mol PO4(3-) / 3 mol Ca(2+) = 0.055 mol PO4(3-)

3) Content of Mg(2+) ions

Ionization equation: Mg (NO3)2 ----> Mg(2+) + 2 NO3 (-)

Molar ratios: 1 mol Mg(NO3)2 : 1 mol Mg(2+) + 2 mol NO3(-)

number of moles of Mg(NO3)2 in 1.5 liter of 8.0 * 10^-2 M solution

n = M * V = 8.0 * 10^ -2 M * 1.5 liter = 0.12 moles Mg(NO3)2

ions of Mg(2+) = 0.12 mol Mg(NO3)2 * 1 mol Mg(2+) / mol Mg(NO3)2 = 0.12 mol Mg(2+)

4) Number of phosphate ions needed to react with 0.12 mol Mg(2+)

2PO4(3-) + 3Mg(2+) = Mg3(PO4)2

=> 2 mol PO4(3-) / 3 mol Mg(2+) = x / 0.12 mol Mg(2+)

=> x = 0.12 * 2/3 mol PO4(3-) = 0.16 mol PO4(3-)

5) Total number of moles of PO4(3-)

0.055 mol + 0.16 mol = 0.215 mol

6) Sodium phosphate

Sodium phosphate = Na3(PO4)

Na3PO4 ---> 3Na(+) + PO4(3-)

=> 1 mol Na3PO4 : 1 mol PO4(3-)

=> 0.215 mol PO4(3-) : 0.215 mol Na3PO4

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of Na3 PO4 = 3*23 g/mol + 31 g/mol + 4*16 g/mol = 164 g/mol

=> mass in grams = 0.215 mol * 164 g/mol = 35.26 g

Answer: 35.26 g of sodium phosphate

Which squirrel do you think is better suited for the environment, the gray one or the white one? and why
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The grey squirrel.

Explanation:

This is your answer because the white one would have a harder time to blend in with the tree's and the environment, whilst the grey one is better suited for its environment better due to the fact that it can blend in with the trees, and hide better.

Which of the following is not a result when a change to an equilibrium system is applied? (2 points)
Ray Of Light [21]
It should be increasing the rate of the forward reaction will cause a shift to the left because the external stress, which is the increase in rate, will cause the reaction to be unbalanced, and to reach equilibrium it needs to shift to the right.
