Answer: The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is K_1\times K_2

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios.

a) A\rightarrow B+C

K_1=\frac{[B]\times [C]}{[A]}

b) B+C\rightarrow D

K_2=\frac{[D]}{[B]\times [C]}

For overall reaction on adding a and b we get c

c) A\rightarrow D

K_3=\frac{[D]}{[A]}

K_3=K_1\times K_2=\frac{[B]\times [C]}{[A]}\times \frac{[D]}{[B]\times [C]}

K_3=K_1\times K_2=\frac{[D]}{[A]}

The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is K_1\times K_2

Why can some metals be extracted from compounds by heating with carbon and why can some not
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Some metals can be extracted from compounds by heating with carbon atom because they are less reactive than carbon and some metals cannot be extracted because they are more reactive than carbon atom.

Explanation: If the metal is less reactive than carbon atom so the carbon atoms make bond with oxide or other atom present with metal and the metal is free from that oxide or that element. But if the reactivity of metal is higher than carbon is unable to remove the oxide or element.

Ca(s)+2hno3(aq)→ca(no3)2(aq)+h2(g) identify the oxidizing agent.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

To find for the oxidizing agent, first let us write the half reactions of this complete chemical reaction:

Ca = Ca2+ + 2e- <span>
2 H+ + 2e- = H2</span>

 

The oxidizing agent would be the substance of the element that is reduced. We know that an element is reduced when an electron is added to it. In this case, the element being reduced is H. Therefore the oxidizing agent is HNO3.

 

Answer:

<span>HNO3</span>

Report the number 315.05 to 3 significant figures.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

315.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the given number has five significant figures as the zero is to the right of the first nonzero digit (3), if it is required to report it with three significant figures, it is necessary to "cut" it at the first five without any rounding since the subsequent zero is less than five.

Thus the number turns out:

315

Best regards.
