It is for safety if you come to a sudden stop like newtons law say if an object is in motion it stays in motion until a force stops it if the bike suddenly stopped then you would fly off because you wold still be going. and the gear helps protect you.

At 700 K, the reaction2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g)has the equilibrium constant Kc = 4.3 x 106, and the following concentrations are p
dedylja [7]

Explanation:

The given reaction is as follows.

       2SO_{2} + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g)

Value of equilibrium constant is given as K_{c} = 4.3 \times 10^{6}[/tex].

Concentration of given species is [SO_2] = 0.010 M; [SO_3] = 10.M; [O_2] = 0.010 M.

Formula for experimental value of equilibrium constant (Q) is as follows.

             Q = \frac{[SO_{3}]^{2}}{[SO_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}

Putting the given concentration as follows.

              Q = \frac{[SO_{3}]^{2}}{[SO_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}

             Q = \frac{(10)^{2}}{(0.010)^{2}(0.010)}

              Q = 10^{8}

It is known that when Q > K_{eq}, then reaction moves in the backward direction.

When Q < K_{eq}, then reaction moves in the forward direction.

When Q = K_{eq}, then reaction is at equilibrium.

As, for the given reaction Q > K_{eq} then it means reaction moves in the backward direction.

Thus, we can conclude that the reaction is moving in the backward direction, that is, right to left to reach the equilibrium.

Convert the following with the correct number of significant figures:
larisa [96]

Answer:

1.78 × 10⁹ μg

Explanation:

We have to convert 1.78 kg to μg.

Step 1: Convert 1.78 kilograms to grams

We will use the conversion factor 1 kg = 10³ g.

1.78 kg × 10³ g/1 kg = 1.78 × 10³ g

Step 2: Convert 1.78 × 10³ grams to micrograms

We will use the conversion factor 1 g = 10⁶ μg.

1.78 × 10³ g × 10⁶ μg/1 g = 1.78 × 10⁹ μg

A generic weak acid with formula HA has a Ka = 2.76 x 10-8. Calculate the Kb for the conjugate base of the acid.
Reika [66]

Answer:

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb

Explanation:

The acid equilibrium of a weak acid, HX, is:

HX + H₂O ⇄ X⁻ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = [X⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HX]

And basic equilibrium of the conjugate base, is:

X⁻ + H₂O ⇄ OH⁻ + HX

Where Kb = [OH⁻] [HX] / [X⁻]

To convert Ka to Kb we must use water equilibrium:

2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

Where Kw = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [OH⁻] [H₃O⁺]

Thus, we can obtain:

Kw = Ka*Kb

Solving for Kb:

Kw / Ka = Kb

1x10⁻¹⁴ /  2.76x10⁻⁸ =

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb
