Why must a container or system be closed for equilibrium to be established?

1 answer:

4 0

If you're dealing with gases, some of them could escape the container. Or, if you're dealing with liquids, there could be some outside factors playing in. In general, you need a closed system to observe a reaction accurately.

Good electrical conductivity and electronegativities less than 1.7 are the properties and characteristic of Group 2 elements at STP.

<h3>What are the properties of group 2 elements?</h3>

Group 2 elements are metals so they are good conductors of heat and electricity. It has electronegativity values less than 1.7 and very reactive. They form 2+ charge in cationic form and also formed ionic bonds with other negatively charged elements.

So we can conclude that good electrical conductivity and electronegativities less than 1.7 are the properties and characteristic of Group 2 elements at STP.

The equilibrium of 2H 2 O(g) 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) at 2,000 K has a Keq value of 5.31 x 10-10. What is the Keq expression for this

maks197457 [2]

Answer is: Keq expression for this system is Keq = [O₂ ] · [H₂]² ÷ [H₂O]².
Chemical reaction: 2H₂O(g) ⇄ O₂(g) + 2H₂(g).
The equilibrium constant (Keq) is a ratio of the concentration of the products (in this reaction oxygen and hydrogen) to the concentration of the reactants (in this reaction water).

You work for a cutlery manufacturer who wants to electrolytically precipitate 0.500 g of silver onto each piece of a batch of 25

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

373.1 mL of AgCN (aq) must be poured into your electrolysis vat to ensure you have sufficient Ag to plate all of the forks.

Explanation:

Mass of silver to be precipitated on ecah spoon = 0.500 g

Number of silver spoons = 250

Total mass of silver = 250 × 0.500 g = 125 g

$Moles (n)=Molarity(M)\times Volume (L)$

Moles of AgCN = n = $\frac{125 g}{134 g/mol}=0.9328 mol$

Volume of AgCN solution =V

Molarity of the AgCN = 2.50 M

$V=\frac{0.9328 mol}{2.50 M}=0.3731 L=373.1 mL$

(1 L = 1000 mL)

373.1 mL of AgCN (aq) must be poured into your electrolysis vat to ensure you have sufficient Ag to plate all of the forks.

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2

Igoryamba

Answer:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

Explanation:

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2

The equation can be balance as follow:

Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2

Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
