Answer:

For 1: The value of $\Delta G$ for the chemical equation is -24.636 kJ/mol

For 2: The value of $\Delta G$ for the chemical equation is -20.925 kJ/mol

Explanation:

For the given chemical equation:

$H_2(g)+CO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(g)+CO(g)$

For 1:

To calculate the $\Delta G$ for given value of equilibrium constant, we use the relation:

$\Delta G=-RT\ln K_p$ .....(1)

where,

$\Delta G$ = ? kJ/mol

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = temperature = 2000 K

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 4.40

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G=-(8.314J/Kmol)\times 2000K\times \ln (4.40)\\\\\Delta G=-24636.12J/mol$

Converting this into kilo joules, we use the conversion factor:

1 kJ = 1000 J

So, -24636.12 J/mol = -24.636 kJ/mol

Hence, the value of $\Delta G$ for the chemical equation is -24.636 kJ/mol

For 2:

The expression of $K_p$ for the given chemical equation is:

$K_p=\frac{p_{CO}p_{H_2O}}{p_{H_2}p_{CO_2}}$

We are given:

$p_{CO}=1.18atm\\p_{H_2O}=0.66atm\\p_{CO_2}=0.82atm\\p_{H_2}=0.27atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_p=\frac{1.18\times 0.66}{0.27\times 0.82}\\\\K_p=3.52$

Now, calculating the value of $\Delta G$ by using equation 1:

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = temperature = 2000 K

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 3.52

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\Delta G=-(8.314J/Kmol)\times 2000K\times \ln (3.52)\\\\\Delta G=-20925.68J/mol$

Converting this into kilo joules, we use the conversion factor:

1 kJ = 1000 J

So, -20925.68 J/mol = -20.925 kJ/mol

Hence, the value of $\Delta G$ for the chemical equation is -20.925 kJ/mol

A car with a mass of 1.1 × 103 kilograms hits a stationary truck with a mass of 2.3 × 103 kilograms from the rear end. The initi

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The answer is C : 15.7 m/s
Use the idea of : momentum before collision = momentum after collision

Before collision;
For car:mass=1.1×10^3, velocity=22
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=0
After collision;
For car:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=-11
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=V
(1.1×10^3 × 22) + (2.3×10^3 × 0) = (1.1×10^3 × -11) + (2.3×10^3 × V)
24200 = -12100 + 2.3×10^3V
2.3×10^3V = 36300
V = 15.7 m/s
