Answer:
Lowering the temperature typically reduces the significance of the decrease in entropy. That makes the Gibbs Free energy of the reaction more negative. As a result, the reaction becomes more favorable overall.
Explanation:
In an addition reaction there's a decrease in the number of particles. Consider the hydrogenation of ethene as an example.
.
When 
is added to 
(ethene) under heat and with the presence of a catalyst, 
(ethane) would be produced.
Note that on the left-hand side of the equation, there are two gaseous molecules. However, on the right-hand side there's only one gaseous molecule. That's a significant decrease in entropy. In other words, 
.
The equation for the change in Gibbs Free Energy for a particular reaction is:
.
For a particular reaction, the more negative 
is, the more spontaneous ("favorable") the reaction would be.
Since typically for addition reactions, the "entropy term" of it would be positive. That's not very helpful if the reaction needs to be favorable.
(absolute temperature) is always nonnegative. However, lowering the temperature could help bring the value of
Answer:
2.7 × 10⁻⁴ bar
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction at equilibrium.
SbCl₅(g) ⇄ SbCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)
The pressure equilibrium constant (Kp) is 3.5 × 10⁻⁴. We can use these data and the partial pressures at equilibrium of SbCl₅ and SbCl₃, to find the partial pressure at equilibrium of Cl₂.
Kp = pSbCl₃ × pCl₂ / pSbCl₅
pCl₂ = Kp × pSbCl₅ / pSbCl₃
pCl₂ = 3.5 × 10⁻⁴ × 0.17 / 0.22
pCl₂ = 2.7 × 10⁻⁴ bar
Answer:
A student's name paired with the sport that they play.
Explanation:
A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a chemical species that donates one or more hydrogen ions in a reaction. In contrast, a Bronsted-Lowry base accepts hydrogen ions. When it donates its proton, the acid becomes its conjugate base. A more general look at the theory is as an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor. :)
