Answer:

1. Partial pressure of N2 is 204.5 mmHg

2. Partial pressure of Cl2 is 613.5 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1:

The equation for the reaction. This is given below:

NCl3 —> N2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

Step 2:

Balancing the equation.

NCl3 (l) —> N2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

The above equation is balanced as follow:

There are 2 atoms of N on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of NCl3 as shown below:

2NCl3 (l) —> N2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

There are 6 atoms of Cl on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of Cl2 as shown below:

2NCl3 (l) —> N2 (g) + 3Cl2 (g)

Now the equation is balanced.

Step 2:

Determination of the mole fraction of each gas.

From the balanced equation above, the resulting mixture of the gas contains:

Mole of N2 = 1

Mole of Cl2 = 3

Total mole = 4

Therefore, the mole fraction for each gas is:

Mole fraction of N2 = mole of N2/total mole

Mole fraction of N2 = 1/4

Mole fraction of Cl2 = mole of Cl2/total mole

Mole fraction of Cl2 = 3/4

Step 3:

Determination of the partial pressure of N2.

Partial pressure = mole fraction x total pressure

Total pressure = 818 mmHg

Mole fraction of N2 = 1/4

Partial pressure of N2 = 1/4 x 818

Partial pressure of N2 = 204.5 mmHg

Step 4:

Determination of the partial pressure of Cl2.

Partial pressure = mole fraction x total pressure

Total pressure = 818 mmHg

Mole fraction of Cl2 = 3/4

Partial pressure of Cl2 = 3/4 x 818

Partial pressure of Cl2 = 613.5 mmHg

Answer:

p_{N_2}=204.5mmHg\\p_{Cl_2}=613.5mmHg

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2NCl_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3Cl_2(g)

Thus, by knowing that the nitrogen trichloride is completely decomposed, one assumes there is one mole of nitrogen and three moles of chlorine (stoichiometric coefficients) as a basis to compute the partial pressures since they have the mole ratio from the nitrogen trichloride. Hence, the mole fractions result:

x_{N_2}=\frac{1}{1+3}=0.25\\ x_{Cl_2}=1-0.25=0.75

In such a way, for the final pressure 818 mmHg, the partial pressures become:

p_{N_2}=x_{N_2}p_T=0.25*818mmHg=204.5mmHg\\p_{Cl_2}=x_{Cl_2}p_T=0.75*818mmHg=613.5mmHg

Best regards.

serg [7]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The first two pictures show the reagents used in these reactions a) and b). As it was stated, An E2 reaction proceeds with an antiperiplanar stereochemistry, so in the case of reaction a) it fill form a product with the groups in opposite directions. In other words, a Trans product.

In the case of reaction b) we have the same reaction, with the difference that we have changed the CH3 and phenyl group of positions. This will cause that the reaction will proceed the same but the stereochemistry of the final product will be changed too. In this case, and according to the picture 3 attached, we can see that the product formed is a cis product. So we can conclude that the relation of product a) and b) is that they are isomers, the trans and cis isomers respectively. See picture below for mechanism and products
