What is the equilibrium constant of a reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
xeze [42]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A. It is the ratio of the concentrations of products to the concentrations of reactants.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

This equilibrium constant can be expressed in many different formats.

  • For any system, the molar concentration of all the species on the right side are related to the molar concentrations of those on the left side by the equilibrium constant.
  • The equilibrium constant is a constant at a given temperature and it is temperature dependent.
  • The derivation of the equilibrium constant is based on the law of mass action.
  • It states that "the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentration of the reacting substances. "

Methionine, ch3sch2ch2ch(nh2)co2h, is an amino acid found in proteins. what is the hybridization type of each carbon, oxygen, th
Lady_Fox [76]
Answer 1) To find the hybridization of carbon we need to draw the lewis structure first; which is attached in the answer.

So the formula for finding hybridization is 
Lone pairs + Bonding pairs = hybridisation.

Here, in the molecule of methionine Carbon is bonded to all 4 atoms and has got no lone pairs so we will have;

0 + 4 = 4 which means it is sp^{3} hybridized.

Answer 2) For oxygen we can see in the lewis structure that it is having 2 lone pairs and double bonded with carbon atom, also there is another oxygen atom with two lone pair but bonded with carbon and hydrogen at the end.

So, in both the cases we can calculate;

where 2 lone pairs are present  
2 + 2 = 4 so, it will be sp^{3} hybridized.

So, Oxygen is also sp^{3} hybridized.

Answer 3) Nitrogen present in the methionine is bonded to carbon atom and hydrogen atoms and has only one lone pair on it.

So when we are substituting this in the formula we get 1 + 3 = 4;

which means 1 lone pair and 3 bond pairs so, it is also sp^{3} hybridized.

Answer 4) Sulfur atom in methionine is bonded to two carbon atoms forming a linear structure with 2 lone pairs on it.

So, it has 2 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs,

hence the hybridization will be  sp^{3} hybridized. 

As, 2 + 2 = 4 which means it is  sp^{3} hybridized.

The sugar in your kitchen has a molar mass of 342.3 g/mol. How many particles are present inside a sugar bowl if there are 250 g
Anastaziya [24]

Number of particles inside a sugar bowl = 4.4 x 10²³

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The molar mass of sugar = 342.3 g/mol

mass of sugar = 250 g

Required

Number of particles

Solution

1 mol = 6.02 x 10²³ particles

mol of sugar :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{molar~mass}

mol = 250 g : 342.3 g/mol = 0.73 mol

Number of particles :

N = n x No

N = 0.73 x 6.02 x 10²³

N = 4.39 x 10²³ ≈ 4.4 x 10²³

For the reaction A+B+C→D+E, the initial reaction rate was measured for various initial concentrations of reactants. The followin
erastovalidia [21]

Answer : The initial rate for a reaction will be 3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

A+B+C\rightarrow D+E

Rate law expression for the reaction:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b[C]^c

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

c = order with respect to C

Expression for rate law for first observation:

6.0\times 10^{-5}=k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

1.8\times 10^{-4}=k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.60)^c ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

2.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

2.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.40)^a(0.40)^b(0.20)^c ....(4)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-4}}{6.0\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.60)^c}{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\3=3^c\\c=1

Dividing 1 from 3, we get:

\frac{2.4\times 10^{-4}}{6.0\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\4=2^a\\a=2

Dividing 3 from 4, we get:

\frac{2.4\times 10^{-4}}{2.4\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.40)^a(0.40)^b(0.20)^c}{k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\1=2^b\\b=0

Thus, the rate law becomes:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^2[B]^0[C]^1

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

6.0\times 10^{-5}=k(0.20)^2(0.20)^0(0.20)^1

k=7.5\times 10^{-3}M^{-2}s^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the initial rate for a reaction that starts with 0.75 M of reagent A and 0.90 M of reagents B and C.

\text{Rate}=k[A]^2[B]^0[C]^1

\text{Rate}=(7.5\times 10^{-3})\times (0.75)^2(0.90)^0(0.90)^1

\text{Rate}=3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

Therefore, the initial rate for a reaction will be 3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

All of the following can increase the rate of chemical reaction EXCEPT:
dangina [55]

Except catalyst because catalyst typically speed up a reaction by reducing the activation energy or changing the reaction mechanism.
