Answer:

A. The equilibrium will shift towards the right, towards the formation of products

B. The concentration of hydrogen gas will decrease as more of it is used in the formation of products

C. Increasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed will increase the concentration of C2H4, the product of the reaction.

Explanation:

The given reaction is an exothermic reaction as it requires the addition of extra energy of about 52.4KJ in the form of heat for the reaction to proceed towards product formation.

According to L' Chtler principle, when an external constraint is applied to A given system in equilibrium, equilibrium position will shift so as to annul the effect ofnthe constraint imposed on the system.

Therefore, the answers tonthe questions above are given below as follows :

A. The equilibrium will shift towards the right, towards the formation of products in order to remove the effect of the additional heat since the forward reaction is endothermic.

B. The concentration of hydrogen gas will decrease as more of it is used in the formation of products .

C. Increasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed will increase the concentration of C2H4, the product of the reaction as the equilibrium will shift towards the right; formation of products.

Calculate the hydrogen-ion concentration [H+] for the aqueous solution in which [OH–] is 1 x 10–11 mol/L. Is this solution acidi

Pepsi [2]

POH = -log [OH-]
pOH = - log (1 x 10^-11)
pOH = -(-11) = 11

pH + pOH = 14
pH + 11 = 14
pH = 14 - 11 = 3

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2h2o(l) + 571.6 kJ -> 2h2(g) + o2(g). What occurred as a result of this

Ivan

Answer: option D) energy was absorbed and entropy increased.

Explanation:

1) Given balanced equation:

2H₂O (l) + 571.6 kJ → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂(g).

2) Being the energy placed on the side of the reactants means that the energy is used (consumed or absorbed). This is an endothermic reaction.

So, the first part is that energy was absorbed.

3) As for the entropy, it is a measure of the disorder or radomness of the system.

Since, two molecules of liquid water were transformed into three molecules of gas, i.e. more molecules and more kinetic energy, therefore the new state has a greater degree of radomness, is more disordered, and you conclude that the entropy increased.

With that, you have shown that the right option is D) energy was absorbed and increased.

What occurs in order to break the bond in a Cl, molecule?

Ann [662]

Answer:

Explanation:

The attachment or (Bond) that resolves around the atoms of CI2 which is a covalent bond, yet energy is needed to destroy the bond and when new bonds are produced, energy is unleashed while the bond's development makes the molecule equilibrated. In short terms to basically break this bond energy is required and another terms energy is occupied and is the conclusion to your question (I tried my best) Energy is absorbed which is the result of what occurs.

What’s the mass of a substance that’s density is 100.09g/mL and takes up 52.75mL?

Leokris [45]

Answer: 5,279.7475g

Mass = Density x Volume
Fill in the blanks :D
Mass= 100.09g/mL x 52.75mL

The mL cancels out and you multiply the numbers.
Mass= 5,279.7475 g
