Answer:

The amount of calcium carbonate will increase.

Explanation:

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

  • K>Q , reaction will move forward by making more product.
  • K<Q , reaction will move backward by making more reactant.

CaCO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons CaO(s) + CO_2(g)

Equilibrium constant of the reaction = K_{eq}=0.0108

Concentration of CaO=\frac{15.0 g}{56 g/mol\times 10.0L}=0.027 M

Concentration of CO_2=\frac{4.25 g}{44 g/mol\times 10.0L}=0.0096 M

Concentration of CaCO_3=\frac{15.0 g}{100 g/mol\times 10.0L}=0.015 M

Q=\frac{[CaO][CO_2]}{[CaCO_3]}

=\frac{0.027 mol/L\times 0.0096 mol/L}{0.015 mol/L}=0.0174

K_{eq}

This means that equilibrium will move in backward direction by which amount of calcium carbonate will increase.

A balloon is filled to a volume of 1.50 L with 3.00 moles of gas at 25 °C. With pressure and temperature held constant, what wil
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Volume : 1.25 L

Explanation:

We are given here that the volume ( V_1 ) = 1.50 Liters, the initial moles ( held at 25 °C ) = 3.00 mol, and the final moles ( n_2 ) = 3.00 - 0.5 = 2.5 mol. The final mol is calculated given that 0.50 mol of gas are released from the prior 3.00 moles of gas.

Volume ( V_1 ) = 1.50 L,

Initial moles ( n_1 ) = 3.00 mol,

Final Volume ( n_2 ) = 3.00 - 0.5 = 2.5 mol

Applying the combined gas law, we can calculate the final volume ( V_2 ).

P_1V_1 / n_1T_1 = P_2V_2 / n_2T_2 - we know that the pressure and temperature are constant, and therefore we can apply the following formula,

V_1 / n_1 = V_2 / n_2 - isolate V_2,

V_2 = V_1 n_2 / n_1 = 1.50 L * 2.5 mol / 3.00 mol = ( 1.5 * 2.5 / 3 ) L = 1.25 L

The volume of the balloon will be 1.25 L.
