\text{Ammonia has been studied as an alternative "clean" fuel for internal combustion}

\text{engines, since its reaction with oxygen produces only nitrogen and water vapor,}

\text{and in the liquid form it is easily transported. An industrial chemist studying this}

\text{reaction fills a} \ \mathbf{100 \  L }\ \text{tank with} \ \mathbf{8.6 \ mol} \ \text{of ammonia gas and} \ \mathbf{28 \ mol} \ \  \text{of oxygen gas, }

\text{to be} \  \mathbf{2.6\  mol} \ .\ \text{Calculate the concentration equilibrium constant for the combustion of}

\text{ammonia at the final temperature of the mixture. Round your answer to  2 significant digits.}

Answer:

Explanation:

From the correct question above:

The reaction can be represented as:

\mathbf{4 NH_3_{(g)}+ 3O_{2(g)} \iff 2N_{2(g)}+ 6H_2O_{(g)} }

From the above reaction; the ICE table can be represented as:

                    \mathbf{4 NH_3_{(g)}+ 3O_{2(g)} \iff 2N_{2(g)}+ 6H_2O_{(g)} }

I (mol/L)     0.086            0.28                 0              0

C                   -4x                -3x               +2x           +6x

E                 0.086 - 4x     0.28 - 3x      +2x             +6x

At equilibrium;

The water vapor = \dfrac{2.6 \ mol}{100 \ L} = 6x

x = \dfrac{2.6}{100} \times \dfrac{1}{6}

x = 0.00433

\text{equilibrium constant}  ({k_c}) =  \dfrac{ [N_2]^2 [H_2O]^6 }{ [[NH_3]^4] [O_2]^3 }

\implies \dfrac{(2x)^2 (6x)^6}{(0.086-4x)^4\times (0.28-3x)^3} \\ \\

Replacing the value of x, we have:

K_c = \dfrac{4 \times 46,656 \times x^8}{(0.086-4x)^4\times (0.28 -3x)^3} \\ \\ K_c = \dfrac{4 \times 46656 \times (0.00433)^8}{(0.06868)^4(0.26701)^3} \\ \\ K_c = \mathbf{5.4446 \times 10^{-8}}

K_c = \mathbf{5.5 \times 10^{-8} \ to  \ 2 \ significant \ figures}

What is the total number of valence electrons in the dot structure of CBr4? Explain how you determined this answer. What is the
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:- There are 32 valence electrons and it's tetrahedral in shape.

Explanations:- Atomic number of carbon is 6 and it's electron configuration is 1s^22s^22p^2 . It has 4 electrons in the outer most shell means it has 4 valence electrons.

Atomic number of Br is 35 and it's electron configuration is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^1^04p^5 . It has 7 electrons in the outer most shell(2 in 4s and 5 in 4p) .

There is one C and four Br in the given compound. So, total number of valence electrons = 4+4(7) = 4+28 = 32

Four Br atoms are bonded to the central carbon atom and also there isn't any lone pair present on carbon. It makes it tetrahedral.
