Carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds because:
Each carbon atom covalently bonds with toms of carbon, hydrogen oxygen, and nitrogen
A carbon atom can have 4 single valence electrons around it. This allows it to form covalent bonds with many different atoms.
Answer:
B. The reaction would shift to produce more O2 and SO2-
Explanation:
This is because the forward reaction is exothermic.
If it is cooled the motion of the particles decreases as they lose energy.
Answer:
The pressure increases to 3.5 atm.
Solution:
According to Gay-Lussac's Law, " At constant volume and mass the pressure of gas is directly proportional to the applied temperature".
For initial and final states of a gas the equation is,
P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂
Solving for P₂,
P₂ = P₁ T₂ / T₁ ----- (1)
Data Given;
P₁ = 3 atm
T₁ = 27 °C + 273 = 300 K
T₂ = 77 °C + 273 = 350 K
Putting values in eq. 1,
P₂ = (3 atm × 350 K) ÷ 300 K
P₂ = 3.5 atm
Answer:
N2O2(g) +O2(g) ===> 2NO2(g)
Explanation:
For a nonelementary reaction, the reaction equation is described as the sum of all the steps involved. All these steps constitute the reaction mechanism. Each step in the mechanism is an elementary reaction. The rate law of the overall reaction involves the rate determining step (slowest step) in the reaction sequence.
Now look at the overall reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)
The two steps in the mechanism are
2NO(g) --------->N2O2(g) (fast)
N2O2(g) +O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g) (slow)
Summing all the steps and cancelling out the intermediate N2O2(g), we obtain the reaction equation;
2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)
Hence the answer.
