Answer:

Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared to Earth's mantle. ... The lithosphere includes the crust and outer part of the mantle.

For the chemical equation SO 2 ( g ) + NO 2 ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − SO 3 ( g ) + NO ( g ) the equilibrium constant at a certain temperatur

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Moles of NO₂ = 0.158

Explanation:

SO 2 ( g ) + NO 2 ( g ) ⇄ SO 3 ( g ) + NO ( g )

According to the law of mass equation

$K_{c}$ = $\frac{[SO_{3} ][NO]}{[SO_{2}][NO_{2} ]}$

⇒ 3.10 = $\frac{(1.00)(1.00)}{(2.30) [NO_{2} ]}$ At equilibrium [SO₃] = [NO]

⇒ [NO₂] = $\frac{1}{6.3}$

⇒ [NO₂] = 0.158

So. number of moles of NO₂ at equilibrium added = 0.158

If a 28.0 L balloon with a temperature of

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

5.6 L

Explanation:

We can apply Charles' Law here since our pressure is constant (will not change inside the refrigerator) and we are relating change in volume with change in temperature:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ where V₁ and T₁ are initial volume and temperature, and V₂ and T₂ are final volume and temperature. Let's plug in what we know and solve for the unknown:

28.0 L / 25 °C = V₂ / 5 °C => V₂ = 5.6 L

5.6 L is our new volume (at 5 °C).

In a study of the conversion of methane to other fuels, a chemical engineer mixes gaseous methane and gaseous water in a 0.778 L

sergejj [24]

Answer:

the water concentration at equilibrium is

⇒ [ H2O(g) ] = 0.0510 mol/L

Explanation:

CH4(g) + H2O(g) ↔ CO(g) + 3H2(g)

∴ Kc = ( [ CO(g) ] * [ H2 ]³ ) / ( [ CH4(g) ] * [ H2O(g) ] ) = 0,30

equilibrium:

⇒ [ CO(g) ] = 0.206 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2648 mol/L

⇒ [ H2(g) ] = 0.187 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2404 mol/L

⇒ [ CH4(g) ] = 0.187 mol / 0.778 L = 0.2404 mol/L

replacing in Kc:

⇒ ((0.2648) * (0.2404)³) / ([ H2O(g) ] * 0.2404 ) = 0.30

⇒ 0.0721 [ H2O(g) ] = 3.679 E-3

⇒ [ H2O(g) ] = 0.0510 mol/L

Why do the air molecules inside a bicycle tire speed up as the temperature gets warmer?

liraira [26]

The correct answer of the given question above would be option A. The air molecules inside a bicycle tire speed up as the temperature gets warmer because the heat is transferred to the molecules and gives them more kinetic energy. When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster.

A 6.000L tank at 19.2°C is filled with 18.0g of carbon monoxide gas and 10.6g of chlorine pentafluoride gas. You can assume both

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Total pressure: 2.89 atm

Mole fraction CO: 0.88

Partial pressure CO: 2.56 atm

Mole fraction ClF₅: 0.12

Partial pressure ClF₅: 0.33 atm

Explanation:

We should apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve this:

P . V = n . R . T

We need n, which is the total moles for the mixture

Total moles = Moles of CO + Moles of ClF₅

Moles of CO = mass of CO / molar mass CO → 18 g/28 g/mol = 0.643 mol

Moles of ClF₅ = mass of ClF₅ / molar mass ClF₅ → 10.6g/ 130.45 g/m = 0.0812 mol

0.643 mol + 0.0812 mol → 0.724 moles in the mixture

So we have the total moles so with the formula we would know the total pressure.

P . 6L = 0.724 mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 292.2K

P = ( 0.724 mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 292.2K) / 6L

P = 2.89 atm

Mole fraction is defined as the quotient between the moles of gas over total moles, and it is equal to partial pressure of that gas over total pressure

Moles of gas X /Total moles = Partial pressure of gas X/Total pressure

(Moles of gas X / Total moles) . Total pressure = Partial pressure of gas X

Mole fraction CO = 0.643 / 0.724 = 0.88

Partial pressure CO = 0.88 . 2.89 atm → 2.56 atm

Mole fraction ClF₅ = 0.0812 / 0.724 = 0.12

Partial pressure ClF₅ = 0.12 . 2.89 atm → 0.33 atm
