Answer:

The concentration equilibrium constant is $K_c = 14.39$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for this decomposition of ammonia is

$2 NH_3$ ↔ $N_2 + 3 H_2$

The initial concentration of ammonia is mathematically represented a

$[NH_3] = \frac{n_1}{V_1} = \frac{29}{75}$

$[NH_3] = 0.387 \ M$

The initial concentration of nitrogen gas is mathematically represented a

$[N_2] = \frac{n_2}{V_2}$

$[N_2] = 0.173 \ M$

So looking at the equation

Initially (Before reaction)

$NH_3 = 0.387 \ M$

$N_2 = 0 \ M$

$H_2 = 0 \ M$

During reaction(this is gotten from the reaction equation )

$NH_3 = -2 x$ (this implies that it losses two moles of concentration )

$N_2 = + x$ (this implies that it gains 1 moles)

$H_2 = +3 x$ (this implies that it gains 3 moles)

Note : x denotes concentration

At equilibrium

$NH_3 = 0.387 -2x$

$N_2 = x$

$H_2 = 3 x$

Now since

$[NH_3] = 0.387 \ M$

$x= 0.387 \ M$

$H_2 = 3 * 0.173$

$H_2 = 0.519 \ M$

$NH_3 = 0.387 -2(0.173)$

$NH_3 = 0.041 \ M$

Now the equilibrium constant is

$K_c = \frac{[N_2][H_2]^3}{[NH_3]^2}$

substituting values

$K_c = \frac{(0.173) (0.519)^3}{(0.041)^2}$

$K_c = 14.39$

The measure of how closely a set of measurements are to each other is the best definition for which of the following terms. a er

ahrayia [7]

D. precision. At first glance you can mark out A and B because the answers does not relate to the question. If question had said "what do you call it when the measurement is close to the actual answer" then you would have picked C. So that leaves you D. precision.

Which of the following happens when solid sodium chloride dissolves in water?A.The attractive forces between water and the sodiu

grin007 [14]

Answer: option D. The attractive forces between the sodium and chloride ions are overcome by the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions.

Explanation:

Solid sodium chloride (NaCl) is a ionic compound formed by ionic bonds between by the positive, metallic cations of sodium atom, Na⁺, and the negative, non-meatllic anions of chlorine atom, Cl⁻ (chloride).

Ionic bonds, then, are the electrostatic attracion between oppositely charged particles (cations and anions).

When solid sodium chloride dissolves in water, the ions (cations and anions) are separated in the solvent (water) due to the superior attracitve forces between such ions and the polar water molecules.

Water (H₂O) is a molecule, formed by polar covalent bonds between two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

The polarity of water molecule is due to the fact that oxygen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen atoms, which cause that the electron density is closer to oxygen nuclei than to hydrogen nuclei. This asymmetry in the electron density conferes a partial positive charge over each hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge over the oxygen atoms.

Thus, the positively charged hydrogen atoms attract and surround the negative chloride (Cl⁻) anions, while the negatively charged oxygen atoms attract and surround the positive sodium (Na⁺) cations. It is only because the attractive forces between the water and the sodium and chloride ions are stronger than the attractive forces between the sodiium and chloride ions that such ions may be kept separated in the solution. This process is called solvation and the ions are said to be solvated by the water molecules.

explain how the number of valence electrons in atoms relate to their bonding with other atoms to form molecules ?????

Westkost [7]

valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.

For example: H2O

O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron

O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable

O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.
