Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

C. Increasing the temperature

D. Reducing the pressure

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂0 + energy

Required

Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

Solution

The formation of H₂O is an exothermic reaction (releases heat)

If the system temperature is raised, then the equilibrium reaction will reduce the temperature by shifting the reaction in the direction that requires heat (endotherms). Conversely, if the temperature is lowered, then the equilibrium shifts to a reaction that releases heat (exothermic)

While on the change in pressure, then the addition of pressure, the reaction will shift towards a smaller reaction coefficient

in the above reaction: the number of coefficients on the left is 3 (2 + 1) while the right is 2

As the temperature rises, the equilibrium will shift towards the endothermic reaction, so the reaction shifts to the left towards H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)

And reducing the pressure, then the reaction shifts to the left H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)⇒the number of coefficients is greater

what is the order of decreasing bond length for a C-C bond composed of the following molecular orbitals?I. sp^3 - sp^3II. sp^2 -

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The decreasing order of bond length in the carbon - carbon bonds will be:

$C-C>C=C>C\equiv C$

Explanation:

Bond length is defined as average distance between two nuclei of bonded atoms in a molecule.Bond length is inversely proportional to the number of bonds present between two atoms.

$\text{Bond length} \propto \frac{1}{\text{Number of bonds}}$ ...[1]

Bond energy is defied as amount of energy required to break apart the bond of 1 mole of molecule into their individual atom. Bond energy is directly proportional to the number of bonds present between two atoms.

$\text{Bond Energy} \propto \text{Number of bonds}$ ..[2]

From [1] and [2]:

$\text{Bond length} \propto \frac{1}{\text{Bond energy}}$

$C-C: sp_3$ hybridized

$C=C: sp_2$ hybridized

$C\equiv C: sp$ hybridized

Extent of overlapping of orbitals in these hybridization;

$C\equiv C> C=C > C-C$

Higher the overlapping of orbital more closer will be both atoms to each other and shorter will be the bond lenght.

So, the decreasing order of bond length in the carbon - carbon bonds will be:

$C-C>C=C>C\equiv C$
