<span>The student is incorrect because helium has 2 valence electrons and it's in group 18 because the first energy level is full. Although helium is placed in Group 18 which generally has 8 valence electrons, it does not have 8 valence electrons as the student suggested. It was grouped together with the noble gases because it exhibits similar properties with them. </span>
A mixture called a solution, I think.
The empirical formula : MnO₂.
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
632mg of manganese(Mn) = 0.632 g
368mg of oxygen(O) = 0.368 g
M Mn = 55
M O = 16
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
You didn't include the pictures, but the steps for finding the empirical formula are generally the same
- Find mol(mass : atomic mass)
Mn : 0.632 : 55 = 0.0115
O : 0.368 : 16 =0.023
- Divide by the smallest mol(Mn=0.0115)
Mn : O =
The empirical formula : MnO₂
Answer:
The equilibrium constant for the reversible reaction = 0.0164
Explanation:
At equilibrium the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backwards reaction.
The reaction is given as
A ⇌ B
Rate of forward reaction is first order in [A] and the rate of backward reaction is also first order in [B]
The rate of forward reaction = |r₁| = k₁ [A]
The rate of backward reaction = |r₂| = k₂ [B]
(Taking only the magnitudes)
where k₁ and k₂ are the forward and backward rate constants respectively.
k₁ = 0.010 s⁻¹
k₂ = 0.0610 s⁻¹
|r₁| = 0.010 [A]
|r₂| = 0.016 [B]
At equilibrium, the rate of forward and backward reactions are equal
|r₁| = |r₂|
k₁ [A] = k₂ [B] (eqn 1)
Note that equilibrium constant, K, is given as
K = [B]/[A]
So, from eqn 1
k₁ [A] = k₂ [B]
[B]/[A] = (k₁/k₂) = (0.01/0.0610) = 0.0163934426 = 0.0164
K = [B]/[A] = (k₁/k₂) = 0.0164
Hope this Helps!!!
