Answer:

K<1.

Explanation:

Hello,

In chemical equilibrium the equilibrium constant accounts for a measure of the direction of the undergoing chemical reaction; in other words, the equilibrium constant help us to know whether a chemical reaction moves rightwards or leftwards. In such a way, if we say that the reactants are favored, the inverse reaction (leftwards movement) is looked for, in this manner, the equilibrium constant must have a value less than 1 based on the law of mass action for a given reaction A⇄B:

$K=\frac{[B]_ {eq}}{[A]_ {eq}}$

Therefore, if K<1 the concentration of A will be greater, favoring the formation of reactants.

Best regards.

Answer:

The reactants are favored when Q > K

Explanation:

Q means Reaction quotient

K means Equilibrium constant

You can have the values for both, doing the same but you must know, you are in equilibrium to name K or Q

K/Q = 1 ----> Equilibrium ---> K = Q

An element and an atom are different but related because

White raven [17]

Answer:

c) An element is made up of all the same type of atom

Explanation:

Atoms are the smallest unit of an element that consists of protons, electrons and neutrons in its structure. An element is the smallest part of a chemical substance that cannot be disintegrated i.e. it cannot be broken down further.

Atoms and elements are different in many ways but they are connected in the sense that an element contains only one type of atoms. For example, aluminum element is made up of only aluminum atoms. Different atoms form a molecule but same atoms form an element.

A fertilizer is 60.9% ammonium phosphate. What is the percent P in the sample? Answer in units of %

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:- 12.7%

Solution:- It says, ammonium phosphate is 60.9%. It means if we assume 100 g of the sample then there is 60.9 g ammonium phosphate in it.

Formula of ammonium phosphate is $(NH_4)_3PO4$ and it's molecular weight is 149 grams per mol. There is only one P in the formula and so the mass of P in 149 g of ammonium phosphate is 31 g(atomic mass of P).

Now, we could use the proportions to find out the mass percentage of P in the sample.

31 g P is present in 149 g of ammonium phosphate, how many grams of P would be present in 60.9 g of ammonium phosphate. Let's set the proportions as:

$\frac{31}{149}=\frac{x}{60.9}$

$x=\frac{31(60.9)}{149}$

$x=12.7$

This 12.7 g of phosphorous is present in 100 g of the sample means there is 12.7% phosphorous in the sample.

Which reaction below represents the electron affinity of li? which reaction below represents the electron affinity of li? li(g)

gladu [14]

Electron affinity is related to the formation of negative ions. Electron affinity can be defined as "the change in energy of a neutral atom when an electron is added to the atom forming a negative ion" To be more specific, energy (in kJ/mol) with regards to atoms (in a gaseous state/phase) Thus, the correct representation for the electron affinity of Li is [Li (g) + e- <span>→ </span> Li- (g)]
