Animal fibers are fibers from animals and consist mainly of protein. They contain not only silk fiber from silkworms and fur fiber from sheep wool but also collagen fiber extracted from animal skins, chitin from crustaceans, and shellfish like shrimp and chitosan made by deacetylating chitin.

A reaction has a forward rate constant of 2.3 × 106 s-1 and an equilibrium constant of 4.0 × 108. what is the rate constant for
avanturin [10]
Answer is: 5,75·10⁻¹.
Kf = 2,3·10⁶ 1/s.
K = 4,0·10⁸ 1/s.
Kr = ?
Kf - <span>forward rate constant.
K - </span><span>equilibrium constant.
Kr - </span><span>reverse rate constant.
</span>Since both Kf and Kr are constants at a given temperature, their ratio is also a constant that is equal to the equilibrium constant K.<span>
K = Kf/Kr.
Kr = Kf/K = </span>2,3·10⁶ 1/s ÷ 4,0·10⁸ 1/s = 5,75·10⁻¹.

Which of the following are true statements about equilibrium systems? For the following reaction at equilibrium: CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(
Grace [21]

Answer:

The first, third and fourth statements are correct.

Explanation:

1) For the following reaction at equilibrium: CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g) adding more CaCO3 will shift the equilibrium to the right.

⇒ Le Chatellier says As the CaCO3 concentration is increased, the system will attempt to undo that concentration change by shifting the balance to the right. <u>This statement is true.</u>

<u />

2) For the following reaction at equilibrium: CaCO3(s)⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g) increasing the total pressure by adding Ar(g) will shift the equilibrium to the right.

⇒ Le chatellier says that if we increase the pressure, the equilibrium will shift to the side with the least number of particles.

Since the molar densities of CaO and CaCO3 are constant, they don't appear in the equilibrium expression. This is why only changes to the pressure (concentration) of CO2 affect the position of the equilibrium.

If the pressure in the container is increased by adding an inert or non-reacting gas, nothing happens to the amounts of CO2, CaO or CaCO3. The added gas won't affect the partial pressure of CO2. <u>This statement is false. </u>

3)For the following reaction at equilibrium: 2 H2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2 H2O(g) the equilibrium will shift to the left if the volume is doubled.

⇒ Le Chatellier says if we increase the pressure, the equilibrium will shift to the side with the most particles.

In this case we have 2 moles of H2 and 1 mole of O2 on the left side and 2 mole of H2O on the right side. This means on the left side are more particles. So the equilibrium will shift to the left, so <u>this statement is true.</u>

4) For the following reaction at equilibrium: H2(g) + F2(g) ⇌ 2HF(g) removing H2 will increase the amount of F2 present once equilibrium is reestablished. Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction shifts the equilibrium position to the right.

⇒ Le chatellier says if H2 will be removed (this means the left side will get less particles) so the equilibrium will shift to the left, to increase the amount of F2.

⇒Le chatelier says if we increase the temperature of an exotherm reaction , there will be less energy released. The equilibrium will shift to the side of the reactants (the left side).

If we increase the temperature of an endotherm reaction, the equilibrium will shift to the side of the products (the right side). <u>This statement is true.</u>

Helga [31]
<span>A scientific question is like a hypothesis. It's the question that you're trying to answer throughout the experiment. So, a scientific question in this case could be: If the car has bigger wheels, will it travel faster? This is something you can test in the experiment, by having different cars with different sized wheels. In this way, you can track how fast each car goes, and determine whether or not the wheel size increases speed, decreases speed, or has no effect on speed.</span>

If the temperature on 244 mL of a gas is changed to 488 mL and 6 atm, at constant
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

<h2>12 atm</h2>

Explanation:

To find the initial pressure we use the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the initial pressure

P_1 =  \frac{P_2V_2}{V_1}  \\

From the question we have

P_1 =  \frac{488 \times 6}{244}  =  \frac{2928}{244}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>12 atm</h3>

Hope this helps you

enmoles of helium gas and one mole of solid argon are in thermal equilibrium with each other at 10 K. Both helium and argon are
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Average speed of helium is higher than argon.

Explanation:

The average speed of helium is higher than argon atom under the conditions specified because of lower mass of the helium atom as compared to argon atom. Average speed of an atom is inversely proportional to mass of the atom. If mass of an atom decreases, the atom moves with higher speed while on the other hand, if the mass of an atom increases the average speed of an atom decreases.
