The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Hydrogen is manufactured on an industrial scale by this sequence of reactions:

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g    ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  K_2$

The net reaction is  :

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

Write an equation that gives the overall equilibrium constant K in terms of the equilibrium constants K_1 and K_2. If you need to include any physical constants, be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator.

Solution :

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g    ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$K_1 = \frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]}$     ...............(1)

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  K_2$

$K_2 = \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$  ...................(2)

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

$K=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$

On multiplication of equation (1) and (2), we get

$K_1 \times K_2=\frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]} \times \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$

$K_1K_2=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$  .................(4)

Comparing equation (3) and equation (4), we get

$K=K_1K_2$

A coffee-cup calorimeter initially contains 125 g water at 24.28C. Potassium bromide (10.5 g), also at 24.28C, is added to the w
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The solution is given below

Explanation:

Heat, q= mc∆T

q= 125g x 4.18 J/g∙°C x (21.18x- 24.28) °C

q=  -1619.75J

NEGATIVE SIGN INDICATES THAT HEAT IS ABSORBED.

Enthalpy Change, ∆H = 1619.75 7/ 10.5 g

                                     = 154.26 J/g

No. of moles of KBr = Mass of KBr/ Molecular Weight of KBr

                                =10.5g/119gmol-1

                                =0.088 mol

∆H= 1619.75 J/ 0.088 mol

      = 18.41 kJ/mol

viva [34]

Answer:

2 electrons

E. neon

Explanation:

Metals lose electrons under certain conditions to attain a noble gas electron configuration. Magnesium has 12 electrons and its electron configuration is

1s² 2s² 2p6⁶ 3s²

When magnesium loses 2 electrons, it acquires the electron configuration of neon (10 electrons).
