The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

1. Given: 2A(g) <-> 2B(g) + C(g). At a particular temperature, K = 1.6x104.

At a higher temperature, K = 1.8x10-5. Placing the equilibrium mixture in an ice bath (thus lowering the temperature) will...

cause [A] to increase

cause [B] to increase

gave no effect

cannot be determined

Answer:

cause [B] to increase

Explanation:

We have to have it behind our minds that;  for an exothermic reaction, when the temperature is increased, the value of the equilibrium constant decreases. On the other hand, for an endothermic reaction, increasing the temperature increases the value of the equilibrium constant.

In this particular case, increasing the temperature decreased the equilibrium constant from K = 1.6x104 to K = 1.8x10-5 meaning that the equilibrium constant decreased with increase in temperature. This means that the reaction is exothermic and a decrease in temperature will favour the forward reaction hence more B is produced.

Which is the best term to use when describing the energy of position?
Minchanka [31]
Answer: potential.

Chemical energy is the energy provided by a chemical reaction.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the speed.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position. For example, an object on the top of a mountain, has the possibility to perform work if it falls.

Electromagnetic energy. is propagated by waves: radio waves, infrared radiation, microwaves, etc.

What would be the mass of a 33.5dm3 sample of O2 at STP?
liraira [26]

Answer:

• One mole of oxygen is equivalent to 16 grams.

→ But at STP, 22.4 dm³ are occupied by 1 mole.

{ \tt{22.4 \:  {dm}^{3}   \: \dashrightarrow \: 16 \: grams}} \\  { \tt{33.5 \:  {dm}^{3}  \:  \dashrightarrow \: ( \frac{33.5 \times 16}{22.4} ) \: grams}} \\  \\  \dashrightarrow \: { \boxed{ \tt{23.94 \: g \approx \: 24 \: grams}}}
