Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction below, if 0.208 moles of sulfur dioxide gas, 0.208 moles o

f oxygen gas and 0.425 moles of sulfur trioxide gas are present in a 1.50-liter reaction vessel at equilibrium.
2SO2(g) +O2 (g) <--> 2SO3 (g)

A. Kc=3.32 x 10^-2
B. Kc=2.01 x 10^1 (I know for a fact this one is wrong.)
C. Kc=2.98 x 10^1
D. Kc=1.47 x 10^1

Please help!

First, we convert the moles of each substance into the concentration using the volume of the reactor.
[SO₃] = 0.425/1.5 = 0.283 M
[SO₂] = 0.208 / 1.5 = 0.139 M
[O₂] = 0.208/1.5 = 0.139 M
The equilibrium constant is calculated by:
Kc = [SO₃]² / [O₂][SO₂]²
Kc = (0.283)²/(0.139)(0.139)²
Kc = 29.8 = 2.98 x 10¹

The answer is C

Question 15 How many grams of NaCl are required to make 500.0 mL of a 1.500 M solution? 58.40 g 175.3 g 14.60 g 43.83 g
ExtremeBDS [4]
Hi!

To make 500 mL of a 1,500 M solution of NaCl you'll require 43,83 g

To calculate that, you will need to use a conversion factor to go from the volume of the 1,500 M solution to the required grams. For this conversion factor, you'll use the definition for Molar concentration (M=mol/L) and the molar mass of NaCl. The conversion factor is shown below:

gNaCl=500mLsol* \frac{1L}{1000 mL}* \frac{1,500 mol NaCl}{1Lsol}* \frac{58,4428 g NaCl}{1 mol NaCl} \\ =43,83gNaCl

Have a nice day!

Find the pH. What are the pH values for the following solutions? (a) 0.1 M HCl (b) 0.1 M NaOH (c) 0.05 M HCl (d) 0.05 M NaOH
slega [8]

Answer:

(a) pH=1

(b) pH=1.3

(c) pH=13

(d) pH=12.7

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we define the pH in terms of the concentration of hydronium ions as:

pH=-log([H^+])

Which is directly computed for the strong hydrochloric acid (consider a complete dissociation which means the concentration of hydronium equals the concentration of acid) in (a) and (c) as shown below:

(a)

[H^+]=[HCl]=0.1M

pH=-log(0.1)=1

(b)

[H^+]=[HCl]=0.05M

pH=-log(0.05)=1.3

Nevertheless, for the strong sodium hydroxide, we don't directly compute the pH but the pOH since the concentration of base equals the concentration hydroxyl in the solution:

[OH^-]=[NaOH]

pOH=-log([OH^-])

pH=14-pOH

Thus, we have:

(b)

pOH=-log(0.1)=1\\pH=14-1=13

(d)

pOH=-log(0.05)=1.3\\pH=14-1.3=12.7

Best regards.
