The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction

1 answer:

6 0

The equilibrium constant is found by [product]/[reactant]

If the equilibrium constant is very small, such as 4.20 * 10^-31, then that means at equilibrium there is very little product and a lot of reactant.
And likewise, if there is a lot of product formed, and very little reactant, then the K value will be very large, which tells us that it is predominantly product.

At equilibrium, for any reaction, there will always be some reactant and some product present. There cannot be zero reactant or zero product. Also keep in mind that the equilibrium constant is dependent on temperature.

At equilibrium, for your reaction, it is predominantly reactants.

Why are red dwarfs not able to fuse helium to heavier elements?

ohaa [14]

Fusing helium into heavier elements requires extreme pressure and temperature. However red dwarfs' gravity is simply not enough to bring helium atom close enough to each other for fusion to occur. Therefore, red dwarfs not able to fuse helium to heavier elements.☺

Chloroform flows through a 4.26 inch inside-diameter pipe at the rate of 3.60 gallons per minute. What is the average velocity o

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

1) 0,081 ft/s

2) 0,746 lb/s

Explanation:

The relation between flow and velocity of a fluid is given by:

Q=Av

where:

Q, flow [ft3/s]
A, cross section of the pipe [ft2]
v, velocity of the fluid [ft/s]

To convert our data to appropiate units, we use the following convertion factors:

1 ft=12 inches

1 ft3=7,48 gallons

1 minute=60 seconds

So,

$Q=\frac{3,60 gallons}{1 min}*\frac{1min}{60 s}*\frac{1ft3}{7,48gallons}=0,00802 \frac{ft3}{s}$

As the pipe has a circular section, we use A=πd^2/4:

$d=4,26 inch *\frac{1ft}{12 inch}=0,355ft\\ A=\pi \frac{0,355^{2} }{4}=0,0989ft2$

Finally:

Q=vA......................v=Q/A

$v=\frac{0,00802ft^{3} /s}{0,0989ft^{2} }=0,081ft/s$

The following formula is used to calculate the specific gravity of a material:

SG = ρ / ρW

where:

SG = specific gravity,

ρ = density of the material [lb/ft3]

ρW = density of water [lb/ft3] = 62.4 lbs/ft3

then:

ρ = SG*ρW = 1,49* 62,4 lb/ft3 = 93 lb/ft3

To calculate the mass flow, we just use the density of the chloroform in lb/ft3 to relate mass and volume:

$0,00802 \frac{ft3}{s}*\frac{93lb}{1ft3}=0,746lb/s$

Glucose, C6H12O6,C6H12O6, is used as an energy source by the human body. The overall reaction in the body is described by the eq

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Mass of oxygen = 61.824 g

Mass of carbon dioxide = 85.01 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of glucose = 58 g

Mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Mass of oxygen = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the balanced chemical equation,

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Moles of glucose:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 58 g/180 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.322 mol

Now we compare the moles of oxygen with glucose from balance chemical equation.

C₆H₁₂O₆ : O₂

1 : 6

0.322 : 0.322×6 = 1.932 mol

Mass of oxygen:

Mass of oxygen = number of moles × molar mass

Mass of oxygen = 1.932 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 61.824 g

Now we compare the moles of carbon dioxide with moles of glucose and oxygen.

C₆H₁₂O₆ : CO₂

1 : 6

0.322 : 0.322×6 = 1.932 mol

O₂ : CO₂

6 : 6

1.932 : 1.932

Mass of carbon dioxide;

mass of carbon dioxide = number of moles × molar mass

mass of carbon dioxide = 1.932 mol × 44 g/mol

mass of carbon dioxide = 85.01 g
