The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

An alcohol thermometer makes use of alcohol's changing _______ in order to measure temperature. As the temperature goes up, the alcohol contained in the thermometer increases in volume, filling more of the thermometer's tube.

mass

state

chemical composition

density

Answer:

density

Explanation:

Every kind of thermometer makes use of a change in a particular physical property of a substance as a measure of temperature. It must be a property that changes with temperature.

Density of a substance changes with temperature. Even though the mass of alcohol in glass remains constant, but its volume increases or decreases with change in temperature leading to a change in volume and consequently a change in density of the alcohol in glass. This change is used as a measure of the change in temperature.

Consider the reaction: P(s) + 5/2 Cl2(g)PCl5(g) Write the equilibrium constant for this reaction in terms of the equilibrium con

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is $K_a\times K_b$

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios.

a) $P(s)+\frac{3}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)$

$K_a=\frac{[PCl_3]}{[Cl_2]^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

b) $PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_5(g)$

$K_b=\frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]\times [PCl_3]}$

For overall reaction on adding a and b we get c

c) $P(s)+\frac{5}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow PCl_5(g)$

$K_c=\frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]^\frac{5}{2}}$

$K_c=K_a\times K_b=\frac{[PCl_3]}{[Cl_2]^{\frac{3}{2}}}\times \frac{[PCl_5]}{[Cl_2]\times [PCl_3]}$

The equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is $K_a\times K_b$

lukranit [14]

Answer:

It reads as follows: 0.5 moles of solute per liter of solution.

Explanation:

Molarity is the most frequent way of expressing the concentration of solutions in chemistry, and it indicates the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of solution; is represented by the letter M.
