Answer: After 4710 seconds, 1/8 of the compound will be left

Explanation:

Using the formulae

Nt/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2

Where

N= amount of the compound  present at time t

No= amount of compound present at time t=0

t= time taken for N molecules of the compound to remain = 4710 seconds

t1/2 = half-life of compound  = 1570 seconds

Plugging in the values, we have  

Nt/No = (1/2)^(4710s/1570s)

Nt/No = (1/2)^3

Nt/No= 1/8

Therefore after 4710 seconds, 1/8 molecules of the compound will be left

Consider the following data for five hypothetical elements: Q, W, X, Y, and Z. Rank the elements from most reactive to least rea
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Y Q W Z X

Explanations:

The most reactive element is the element that will displace an element from it compound . The most reactive element will replace the less reactive element in it compound.

Q+ + Y Reaction occurs

Since the reaction occurs the element Y which is more reactive displaced element Q from it compound.

Q+W+ Reaction occurs

The reaction occurs, that means element Q replaces element w from it compound. Element Q is therefore more reactive than element W.

W+Z+ Reaction occurs

The reaction also occurs . This is an indication that element W replaces element Z in it compound. This means element W is very reactive than element Z.

X+Z+ No reaction

There is no reaction here. This is an indication that element X is less reactive than element Z. This is why element X can't displace element Y in it compound.

Discussion Questions 1. Given the equilibrium equation for a general reaction, A + B  C + D, explain what happens to the reacta
ANTONII [103]

Answer:The equilibrium constant for a given reaction is [concentration of products]/[concentration of reactants].

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant=[concentration of products]/[concentration of reactants]

The concentration of reactant  molecules is maximum at time 0 and it  decreases as the reaction proceeds, The concentration of product molecules increases.At equilibrium the concentration of reactants and products are equal.

All the changes would occur in accordance with the LeChateliers principle.

For the given reaction the following changes would occur:

a When CO is removed from the reaction mixture so the reaction would shift towards right that is in forward direction as we are decreasing the concentration of CO so the system would try to increase the concentration of CO and that can happen by more production of CO.

b Since the above reaction is an endothermic reaction so when we would be adding heat to the system that is when we would increase the temperature  the reaction would shift forwards as  more heat energy is absorbed by reactants  to form more products.

c When more CO₂ is added so more amount of reactants are added to the system so the system would try to decrease the amount of reactants that is CO₂ and hence more amount of products would be formed.The reaction would shift in forward direction.

d Since  this reaction is endothermic in nature so when we remove the heat from reaction hence even less amount of heat is present in the system and so the reaction shift in backward direction as the reaction cannot proceed without enough amount of heat.
