Answer:

Kc = [CO2], that is to say it is equal to the concentration of CO2

Explanation:

It is a heterogeneous equilibrium since the substances that participate in the reaction are in different phases

In the heterogeneous limestone decomposition reaction:

CaCO3(s) --> CaO(s) + CO2(g)

The equilibrium constants are:

Kc = [CO2(g)]; Kp = PCO2(g); Kc = Kp (R T)^ −(1−0) = Kp (R T)^ −1

The equilibrium situation is not affected by the amount of solid or liquid, as long as these substances are present.

The equilibrium constant is independent of the amounts of solids and liquids in equilibrium.

Beth’s hygrometer is reading a temperature of 30°C and a relative humidity of 65%. The humidity in the air is how many grams/cub

emmasim [6.3K]

This is asking for the absolute humidity. So if the relative humidity is 65 % and the air temperature is 30 then we need to have in mind the barometric pressure which will be 760. The humidity in the air will be 0.020 kg/m3. In order to know this we calculate it eith the mass of water vapour in a unit volume of air. This is a measure of the actual water vapour content of the air. the for mula would go like this: AH = Mv / V.

Write the balanced molecular chemical equation for the reaction

Ierofanga [76]

The balanced molecular chemical equation for the reaction will be expressed as Cs₂CO₃ + Mg(NO₃)₂ -> 2CsNO₃ + MgCO₃

For any chemical equation to be balanced, the number of moles of elements in the reactants must be equal to that of the product.

According to the question, we are to write a balanced equation for the reaction in aqueous solution for cesium carbonate and magnesium nitrate
