Answer:

[PCl₅]  → 4.47×10⁻³ M

[PCl₃]  → 0.0897M

Explanation:

We state the equilibrium: PCl₅ (g) ⇄  PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

Initially we have 0.4192 moles of  PCl₅ so during the reaction, x moles of it have been reacted. In conclussion after the equilibrium we may have x moles of PCl₃ and Cl₂. In order to find the final concentration, we use the Kc, but we need molar concentrations. That's why we divide all the values with the 4.5L, volume for the vessel. The expression for Kc is:

Kc = [PCl₃] . [Cl₂] / [PCl₅]

1.80 = (x/ 4.45) . (x/ 4.45) / ((0.4192-x) /4.45)

1.80 = (x² / 4.45²) / ((0.4192-x) /4.45)

1.80 = x² / 4.45 / (0.4192-x)

1.80 (0.4192-x) = x² / 4.45

1.80 (0.4192-x) . 4.45 - x² = 0

3.36 - 8.01x - x² = 0 → Quadractic

a = -1  b = -8.01  c = 3.36

(-b + √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

(-(-8.01) + √((-8.01)² - 4(-1)3.36)) / (2(-1) = 0.3995

[PCl₅] = (0.4192 - 0.3995) / 4.45L → 4.47×10⁻³ M

[PCl₃] = 0.3995 /4.45L → 0.0897M

Two rigid transformations are used to map TriangleJKL to TriangleMNQ. The first is a translation of vertex L to vertex Q. What i
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The second transformation is a rotation around (point) L.

Explanation:

Generally, a rigid transformation is used to change only the position of a figure while the shape remains the same. In order to map a triangle (ΔJKL) to another triangle (ΔMNQ), two rigid transformations were employed. In the first transformation, the vertex L was mapped to the vertex Q. Therefore, the second transformation will definitely involve the rotation around (point) L. This will complete the two rigid transformations.
