Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) cannot be obtained in a pure form in the gas phase because it exists as a mixture of NO2 and N2O4. At 16°

Pavel [41]

Answer:

PNO₂ = 0.49 atm

PN₂O₄ = 0.45 atm

Explanation:

Let's begin with the equation of ideal gas, and derivate from it an equation that involves the density (ρ = m/V).

PV = nRT

n = m/M (m is the mass, and M the molar mass)

$PV = \frac{m}{M}RT$

$PxM = \frac{m}{V}RT$

PxM = ρRT

ρ = PxM/RT

With the density of the gas mixture, we can calculate the average of molar mass (Mavg), with the constant of the gases R = 0.082 atm.L/mol.K, and T = 16 + 273 = 289 K

$2.7 = \frac{0.94xMavg}{0.082x289}$

0.94Mavg = 63.9846

Mavg = 68.0687 g/mol

The molar mass of N is 14 g/mol and of O is 16 g/mol, than $M_{NO2} = 46$ g/mol and $M_{N2O4} = 96$ g/mol. Calling y the molar fraction:

$Mavg = M_{NO2}y_{NO2} + M_{N2O4}y_{N2O4}$

And,

$y_{NO2} + y_{N2O4} = 1$

$y_{N2O4} = 1 - y_{NO2}$

So,

$68.0687 = 46y_{NO2} + 92x(1 - y_{NO2})$

$68.0687 - 92 = 46y_{NO2} - 92y_{NO2}$

$46y_{NO2} = 23.9313$

$y_{NO2} = 0.52$

$y_{N2O4} = 0.48$

The partial pressure is the molar fraction multiplied by the total pressure so:

PNO₂ = 0.52x0.94 = 0.49 atm

PN₂O₄ = 0.48x0.94 = 0.45 atm

A solution of acetic acid, CH3CO₂H(aq), is at equilibrium. How would the

s344n2d4d5 [400]

If more acetic acid were added to a solution at equilibrium, [H⁺] and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would increase to counteract the perturbation. (Option C)

<h3>How do systems at equilibrium respond to perturbation?</h3>

When a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation, it shifts its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation.

Let's consider a solution of acetic acid at equilibrium.

CH₃CO₂H(aq) = CH₃CO₂⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

If more acetic acid were added to the solution, the system will shift toward the products to counteract such an increase.

How would the system change if more acetic acid were added to the solution?

A. [H⁺] would decrease and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would increase. NO.

B. [H⁺] and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would decrease. NO.

C. [H⁺] and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would increase. YES. Both products would increase.

D. [H⁺] would increase and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would decrease. NO.

If more acetic acid were added to a solution at equilibrium, [H⁺] and [CH₃CO₂⁻] would increase to counteract the perturbation.

yan [13]

Answer:

Picking up marbles and placing them in a sack

Explanation:

The entropy of a chemical system is defined as the measure of disorder. Therefore a negative change in entropy is the movement to a more ordered state. The only option here which achieves a more ordered state, would be the first option.

Picking up marbles and placing them in a stack achieves more order, rather than the other options - that achieve more disorder.
