The equilibrium constant, Kc, for the following

Chemistry

Answer:

2CH2Cl2(g) Doublearrow CH4(g) + CCl4(g)

0.205 moles of CH2Cl2 is introduced. Let by the time an equilibrium is reached x moles each of CH4 and CCl4 are formed => remaining moles of CH2Cl2 are 0.205-x

i.e at equilibrium the concentration on CH2Cl2 is (0.205-2x) mol/L, CH4 is x mol/L, CCl4 is x mol/L

Now the equilibrium constant equation : K = [CH4][CCl4]/[CH2Cl2]^2 ([.] - stands for concentration of the term inside the bracket)

10.5 = x*x/(0.205-2x)^2

=> 10.5(4x^2-0.82x+0.042) = x^2

=>42x^2-8.61x+0.441=x^2

=>41x^2-8.61x+0.441 = 0

This is a Quadratic in x, solving for the roots, we get x = 0.0886 , x = 0.121

The second solution for x will lead 0.205-2x to become negative, so is an infeasible solution.

Therefore equilibrium concentrations of the products and reactants correspond to x=0.0886 and they are , [CH2Cl2] = 0.205-2*0.0886 =0.0278 mol/L , [CH4] = 0.0886 mol/L , [CCl4] = 0.0886 mol/L

In the background, you were given the reactions for the fermentation of glucose to ethanol in the production of wine from grapes
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Kombucha is a Symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), similar to mother of vinegar, containing one or more specie each of bacteria and yeast which is added to sweet tea, which jump start two processes take place. First, alcoholic fermentation during which the yeast convert sugars to alcohol under controlled conditions. After that, the bacteria converts most of this alcohol into acetic, gluconic and glucoronic and other organic acids. during both of this processes, the yeast and bacteria, feast and multiply, yielding an end beverage that is rich in variety of micro organisms and healthy acids. Source: Health-Ade.com/blog/blog/what-is-fermentation

the products formed is more rich than those of the fermentation of grapes because it is a symbiotic fermentation of yeast and bacteria

Explanation:

Kombucha is fermented slightly alcoholic, lightly effervescent sweetend black or green tea, commonly consumed for its health benefits sometimes the beverage is called kombucha tea to distinguish it from the cultures of bacteria and yeast. Kombucha is thought to have originated in manchuria where the drink is traditionally consumed or in Russia and Eastern Europe.

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?
frez [133]
The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.

A container of oxygen with a fixed volume has a pressure of 13.0 atm at a temperature of 20 °C. What will the pressure of the ox
Norma-Jean [14]

Given:

P1 = 13.0 atm

T1 = 20 °C

T2 = 102 °C

Required:

P2 of oxygen

Solution:

At constant volume, we can apply Gay-Lussac’s law of pressure and temperature relationship

P1/T1=P2/T2

(13.0 atm) / (20 °C) = P2 / (102 °C)

P2 = 66.3 atm

The answer is not in the choices given.

Binary compounds consist of only two distinct elements, regardless of whether the compound is ionic or molecular. Water is a binary compound, as are calcium chloride, ammonia, and potassium iodide. 

<span>An ionic binary compound consists of cations of one element and anions of another. KI is an ionic binary compound, composed of K cations and I anions. </span>

<span>A molecular binary compound does not consist of discrete ions, but of molecules. H2O is molecular, as is NH3.</span>
