Formation of Y and Z directly depends on initial amount of X present.

Further Explanation:

Le Chatelier’s principle:

This states that any change in pressure, temperature or concentration in any reaction that is present in equilibrium tends to shift equilibrium in such direction that reverses the effect of changed quantity in reaction.

Given reaction occurs as follows:

2\text{X(g)}\rightleftharpoons\text{Y(g)}+\text{Z(g)}

According to this reaction, two moles of X decompose to form one mole of Y and one mole of Z.

Amounts of Y and Z formed during the given reaction depend on initial amount of X present. More the amount of X, higher will be formation of products Y and Z and vice-versa. So if amount of X is increased, equilibrium will tend to shift in direction that reverses this effect. This is done only by increased consumption of X that results in more formation of products. Therefore more amounts of Y and Z are formed if initial amount of X is increased and formation of Y and Z decreases if initial amount of X is decreased.

Answer: the equilibrium will be displaced to the right leading an increase on the quantities of y(g) and z(s).

Justification:

According to the rules of equilibrium, based on Le Chatellier's priciple, any change in a system in equilibrium will be tried to be compensated to restablish the equilibrium

The higher the amount, and so the concentration, of X(g), the more will the forward reaction proceed leading to an increase on the concentration of the products y(g) and z (s). Look that that will also be accompanied by a decreasing on the pressure, since 2 molecules of the gas X(g) are converted into 1 molecule of the gas y(g).

A common radio wavelength observed coming from astronomical objects is 21 cm. What temperature is associated with this radiation
qaws [65]

Answer:

The temperature associated with this radiation is 0.014K.

Explanation:

If we assume that the astronomical object behaves as a black body, the relation between its <em>wavelength</em> and <em>temperature</em> is given by Wien's displacement law.

\lambda_{max}=\frac{b}{T}

where,

λmax is the wavelength at the peak of emission

b is Wien's displacement constant (2.89×10⁻³ m⋅K)

T is the absolute temperature

For a wavelength of 21 cm,

T=\frac{b}{\lambda _{max} } = \frac{2.89 \times 10^{-3} m.K  }{0.21m} =0.014K

What observation about light supported Einstein's theory?
Llana [10]

In 1905 Albert Einstein had proposed a solution to the problem of observations made on the behaviour of light having characteristics of both wave and particle theory. From work of Plank on emission of light from hot bodies, Einstein suggested that light is composed of tiny particles called <span>photons, </span>and each photon has energy.

Light theory branches in to the physics of <span>quantum mechanics, </span>which was conceptualised in the twentieth century. Quantum mechanics deals with behaviour of nature on the atomic scale or smaller.

As a result of quantum mechanics, this gave the proof of the dual nature of light and therefore not a contradiction.

8. If a sample of chloroform is initially at 25°C, what is its final temperature if 150.0 g of chloroform
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The final temperature is 31.95° C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial temperature of a sample of chloroform, T_i=25^{\circ} C

Mass of chloroform, m = 150 g

It absorbs 1 kJ of heat, Q = 10³ J

The specific heat of chloroform, c = 00.96 J/gºC

We need to find the final temperature. The heat absorbed by an object in terms of specific heat is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_f-T_i)\\\\\dfrac{Q}{mc}+T_i=T_f\\\\T_f=\dfrac{10^3}{150\times 0.96}+25\\\\=31.95^{\circ} C

So, the final temperature is 31.95° C.

8. How much heat is released when 85.0 g of steam condense to liquid water?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

199920J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of steam  = 85g

Unknown:

Heat released when the liquid is condensed  = ?

Solution:

The heat released by the substance is given as;

         H  = mL

H is the heat released

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of steam  = 2352J/g

Heat released  = 85 x 2352  = 199920J
