The given sentence is part of a longer question.
I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:
For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>). If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before
any reaction occurs?
(a) Q = K<span>; The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;
The reaction </span>will proceed to
the right.
(c) Q > K<span>; The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.
The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left,
since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:
Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.
Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.
The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.
At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp
If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,
If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.
Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.
Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.
Answer:
A scientific question is basically a question that can lead to a hypothesis to help us figure out the observation in science. I hope this helps you
A.Transform
B.Divergent
C. Convergent
<span>(a) what is the average volume (in cubic meters) required for each iron atom
For this case, the density of Iron would be </span>7.87g/cm³
<span>
V = 9.27 x 10^-26 kg / </span>7.87g/cm<span>³ ( 1 kg / 1000 g)
</span>V = 1.18 x 10-23 cm³<span>
(b) what is the distance (in meters) between the centers of adjacent atoms?
We assume the atoms as cube, so we use the volume of the cube to calculate the distance of the atoms.
V = </span>1.18 x 10-23 cm<span>³ = s</span>³
s = 2.28 x 10^-8 cm
