Can someone balance this chemical equation for me please : )

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago

Answer:

2

Explanation:

Tried out 1, but couldn't get whole numbers on the right side then, so went up to 2, worked

all four numbrrs: 2, 7, 4, 6

The 7 for oxygen got adjusted in the last step of the thinking, because it's the simplest to adjust.

since there are different prime numbers (or rather numbers that don't share prime factors) in the set, the numbers can't be revived by the same number and still give whole numbers as results (they can't be smaller)

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me
Burka [1]

Answer:

<h3>1)</h3>

Structure One:

  • N: -2
  • C: 0
  • O: +1

Structure Two:

  • N: 0
  • C: 0
  • O: -1

Structure Three:

  • N: -1
  • C: 0
  • O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

<h3>2)</h3>
  • All five C atoms: 0
  • All six H atoms to C: 0
  • N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}.

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

  • N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
  • This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
  • There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be 5 - 1 - 6 = -2.

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

<h3>1)</h3>

Structure One:

  • N: -2
  • C: 0
  • O: +1

Structure Two:

  • N: 0
  • C: 0
  • O: -1

Structure Three:

  • N: -1
  • C: 0
  • O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

<h3>2)</h3>

Similarly,

  • All five C atoms: 0
  • All six H atoms to C: 0
  • N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

A mixture of reactants and products for the reaction shown below is at
zavuch27 [327]

If the volume of the container were increased to 4.0 L, more N₂ and H₂ would be produced (Option D)

<h3>What is chemical equilibrium? </h3>

This is simply defined as a state in a chemical system where there is no observable change in the properties of the system with time.

<h3>Principle of chemical equilibrium </h3>

A French scientist postulated a principle which helps us to understand a chemical system in equilibrium.

The principle states as follow:

If a an external constraint such as change in temperature, pressure or concentration is imposed on a system in equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift so as to neutralize the effect.

<h3>How to determine what will happen if the volume of the container is increased from 2 L to 4 L</h3>

From the principle given above, we can see that volume does not affect equilirium position.

However, from Boyle's law, we understood that pressure and volume are in invest relationship.

Thus, increasing volume simply means decreasing pressure.

A decrease in pressure will favors the side where there is an increase in volume.

Let us consider the equation from the question:

N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) <=> 2NH₃(g)

  • Volume of reactants = 1 + 3 = 4 L
  • Volume of products = 2 L

Thus, we can conclude that increasing the volume (i.e decreasing the pressure) of the reaction will favors the backward reaction, hence, more N₂ and H₂ would be produced.
