Consider the isomerization of butane with equilibrium constant is 2.5 .The system is originally at equilibrium with :
[butane]=1.0 M , [isobutane]=2.5 M
If 0.50 mol/L of butane is added to the original equilibrium mixture and the system shifts to a new equilibrium position, what is the equilibrium concentration of each gas?
Answer:
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane] = 1.14 M
[isobutane] = 2.86 M
Explanation:
Butane ⇄ Isobutane
At equilibrium
1.0 M 2.5 M
After addition of 0.50 M of butane:
(1.0 + 0.50) M -
After equilibrium reestablishes:
(1.50-x)M (2.5+x)
The equilibrium expression will wriiten as:
![K_c=\frac{[Isobutane]}{[Butane]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_c%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BIsobutane%5D%7D%7B%5BButane%5D%7D)

x = 0.36 M
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane]= (1.50-x) = 1.50 M - 0.36M = 1.14 M
[isobutane]= (2.5+x) = 2.50 M + 0.36 M = 2.86 M
We will balance the equation in the following order: metals, amethals, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (the most common order).
The metal present in the equation is Sr, which is already balanced (there are 1 on each side of the equation).
The amethal present in the equation is Cl. There is 2 Cl in the left side and only one in the right side. So, we will multiply the quantity of the molecule that contains Cl by 2. Doing this, we'll obtain:
Looking at the equation, we can see that it is now fully balanced. Hence, a balanced equation of the reaction is:
Answer:
- 6.38x10²² molecules C₆H₁₂O₆
Explanation:
First we <u>convert the given masses into moles</u>, using the <em>compounds' respective molar mass</em>:
- 64.7 g N₂ ÷ 28 g/mol = 2.31 mol N₂
- 83 g CCl₄ ÷ 153.82 g/mol = 0.540 mol CCl₄
- 19 g C₆H₁₂O₆ ÷ 180 g/mol = 0.106 mol C₆H₁₂O₆
Then we multiply each amount by <em>Avogadro's number</em>, to <u>calculate the number of molecules</u>:
- 2.31 mol N₂ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 1.39x10²⁴ molecules
- 0.540 mol CCl₄ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 3.25x10²³ molecules
- 0.106 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 6.38x10²² molecules
If you clear volume in the density equation:

The greater the density the lower the volume. This means, the volume of gold nugget will be smaller than the volume of iron pyrite nugget.
