2) Show the calculation of Kc for the following reaction if an initial reaction mixture of 0.800 mole of CO and 2.40 mole of H2

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Kc = 3.90

Explanation:

CO reacts with $H_2$ to form $CH_4$ and $H_2O$ . balanced reaction is:

$CO(g) + 3H_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons CH_4(g) + H_2O(g)$

No. of moles of CO = 0.800 mol

No. of moles of $H_2$ = 2.40 mol

Volume = 8.00 L

Concentration = $\frac{Moles}{Volume\ in\ L}$

Concentration of CO = $\frac{0.800}{8.00} = 0.100\ mol/L$

Concentration of $H_2$ = $\frac{2.40}{8.00} = 0.300\ mol/L$

$CO(g) + 3H_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons CH_4(g) + H_2O(g)$

Initial 0.100 0.300 0 0

equi. 0.100 -x 0.300 - 3x x x

It is given that,

at equilibrium $H_2O (x)$ = 0.309/8.00 = 0.0386 M

So, at equilibrium CO = 0.100 - 0.0386 = 0.0614 M

At equilibrium $H_2$ = 0.300 - 0.0386 × 3 = 0.184 M

At equilibrium $CH_4$ = 0.0386 M

$Kc=\frac{[H_2O][CH_4]}{[CO][H_2]^3}$

$Kc=\frac{0.0386 \times 0.0386}{(0.184)^3 \times 0.0614} =3.90$

Complete and balance the molecular equation for the reaction of aqueous sodium sulfate, Na2SO4, and aqueous barium nitrate, Ba(N

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

1. The balanced molecular equation is given below:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

2. The net ionic equation is given below:

SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) —> BaSO4(s)

Explanation:

1. The balanced molecular equation

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + NaNO3(aq)

The above equation can be balance as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + NaNO3(aq)

There are 2 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of NaNO3 as shown below:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

Now, the equation is balanced.

2. The bal net ionic equation.

This can be obtained as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —>

In solution, Na2SO4 and Ba(NO3)2 will dissociate as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) —> 2Na^+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)

Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> Ba^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq)

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —>

2Na^+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2Na^+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq)

Cancel the spectator ions i.e Na^+ and NO3^- to obtain the net ionic equation.

SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) —> BaSO4(s)

What does an arrow in a chemical equation show?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

A chemical equation consists of the chemical formulas of the reactants (on the left) and the products (on the right). The two are separated by an arrow symbol (“→” usually read aloud as “yields”). ... The equation also identifies that all the compounds are in the gaseous state.
