B. Mn + NiBr₂  →  Ni + MnBr₂

Explanation:

The reaction that can be predicted of all is Mn + NiBr₂  →  Ni + MnBr₂.

The activity series is used to predict the products of single displacement reactions.

The series ranks metals in order of their reactivity. Those higher up in the series are highly reactive metals. Those at the bottom are slightly to non-reactive metals.

For a single displacement reaction to occur, a metal higher up in the activity series displaces one that is lower in the series.

  Reaction A will not occur, Ba is higher in the series

  Reaction C will not occur, Pt and Au are unreactive

  Reaction D will not occur as Zn is lower in the series

Mn is higher in the reactivity series and it will displace Ni from the solution.

Consider the pka (3.75) of formic acid, h-cooh as a reference. with appropriate examples, show how inductive, dipole, and resona
Luden [163]
Formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid with a structure of HCOOH and has a pka of 3.75. The pka refers to the acidity of the molecule, which in this example refers to the molecules ability to give up the proton of the O-H. A decrease in the pka value corresponds to an increase in acidity, or an increase in the ability to give up a proton. When an acid gives up a proton, the remaining anionic species (in this case HCOO-) is called the conjugate base, and an increase in the stability of the conjugate base corresponds to an increase in acidity.

The pka of a carboxylic can be affected greatly by the presence of various functional groups within its structure. An example of an inductive effect changing the pka can be shown with trichloroacetic acid, Cl3CCOOH. This molecule has a pka of 0.7. The decrease in pka relative to formic acid is due to the presence of the Cl3C- group, and more specifically the presence of the chlorine atoms. The electronegative chlorine atoms are able to withdraw the electron density away from the oxygen atoms and towards themselves, thus helping to stabilize the negative charge and stabilize the conjugate base. This results in an increase in acidity and decrease in pka.

The same Cl3CCOOH example can be used to explain how dipoles can effect the acidity of carboxylic acids. Compared to standard acetic acid, H3CCOOH with a pka of 4.76, trichloroacetic acid is much more acidic. The difference between these structures is the presence of C-Cl bonds in place of C-H bonds. A C-Cl bond is much more polar than a C-H bond, due the large electronegativity of the chlorine atom. This results in a carbon with a partial positive charge and a chlorine with a partial negative charge. In the conjugate base of the acid, where the molecule has a negative charge localized on the oxygen atoms, the dipole moment of the C-Cl bond is oriented such that the partial positive charge is on the carbon that is adjacent to the oxygen atoms containing the negative charge. Therefore, the electrostatic attraction between the positive end of the C-Cl dipole and the negative charge of the anionic oxygen helps to stabilize the entire species. This level of stabilization is not present in acetic acid where there are C-H bonds instead of C-Cl bonds since the C-H bonds do not have a large dipole moment.

To understand how resonance can affect the pka of a species, we can simply compare the pka of a simple alcohol such as methanol, CH3OH, and formic acid, HCOOH. The pka of methanol is 16, suggesting that is is a very weak acid. Once methanol gives up that proton to become the conjugate base CH3O-, the charge cannot be stabilized in any way and is simply localized on the oxygen atom. However, with a carboxylic acid, the conjugate base, HCOO-, can stabilize the negative charge. The lone pair electrons containing the charge on the oxygen atom are able to migrate to the other oxygen atom of the carboxylic acid. The negative charge can now be shared between the two electronegative oxygen atoms, thus stabilizing the charge and decreasing the pka.

The formation of SO3 from SO2 and O2 is an intermediate step in the manufacture of sulfuric acid, and it is also responsible for
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

118.22 atm

Explanation:

2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)      

KP = 0.13 = \frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}

Where p(SO₃) is the partial pressure of SO₃, p(SO₂) is the partial pressure of SO₂ and p(O₂) is the partial pressure of O₂.

  • With 2.00 mol SO₂ and 2.00 mol O₂ if there was a 100% yield of SO₃, then 2 moles of SO₃ would be produced and 1.00 mol of O₂ would remain.
  • With a 71.0% yield, there are only 2*0.71 = 1.42 mol SO₃, the moles of SO₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42 = 0.58; and the moles of O₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42/2 = 1.29.

The total number of moles is 1.42 + 0.58 + 1.29 = 3.29. With that value we can calculate the molar fraction (X) of each component:

  • XSO₂ = 0.58/3.29 = 0.176
  • XO₂ = 1.29/3.29 = 0.392
  • XSO₃ = 1.42/3.29 = 0.432

The partial pressure of each gas is equal to the total pressure (PT) multiplied by the molar fraction of each component.

  • p(SO₂) = 0.176 * PT
  • p(O₂) = 0.392 * PT
  • p(SO₃) = 0.432 * PT

Rewriting KP and solving for PT:

\frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}=0.13\\\frac{(0.432*P_{T})^{2}}{(0.176*P_{T})^{2}(0.392*P_{T})} =0.13\\\frac{0.1866*P_{T}^{2}}{0.0121*P_{T}^{3}} =0.13\\\frac{15.369}{P_{T}}=0.13\\P_{T}=118.22 atm
