First you should know that the Principle of Le Chatelier states that <u>if a system in equilibrium is subjected to a change of conditions, it will move to a new position in order to counteract the effect that disturbed it and recover the state of equilibrium.</u>

The variation of one or several of the following factors can alter the equilibrium condition in a chemical reaction:

  • Temperature
  • The pressure
  • The volume
  • The concentration of reactants or products

1. This reaction is: <u>a. exothermic</u>

The chemical equilibrium at issue is:

CoCl₄²⁻  ⇄   Co²⁺ + 4Cl⁻ + heat

<em>blue</em>            <em>pink</em>

The reaction of the question is <u>exothermic</u> because when adding heat (at high temperature) the equilibrium moves to the left since the blue color is strong which means that there are more reagent (CoCl₄²⁻) that product (Co²⁺). On the other hand, when extracting heat from the system (at low temperature) the equilibrium moves to the right since the pink color predominates and more product is present in the solution.

2. When the temperature is decreased the equilibrium constant, k: <u>c. remains the same.</u>

As mentioned above, <u>a system in equilibrium that is disturbed will move to a new position in order to counteract the effect that disturbed it and recover the state of equilibrium. </u>In this way, the system will always remain in equilibrium and its equilibrium constant will remain constant. This is why, despite altering the temperature of the system, the equilibrium constant remains constant.

3. When the temperature is decreased the equilibrium concentration of Co²⁺:  <u>a. increases</u>

Again, the chemical equilibrium at issue is:

CoCl₄²⁻  ⇄   Co²⁺ + 4Cl⁻ + heat

As the reaction in question is exothermic when the temperature decreases, heat is extracted from the system. <u>To compensate this decrease in heat, the system will react by shifting the balance to the right, increasing the concentration of the products and, therefore, the concentration of Co²⁺.</u>

The volume of a gas is reduced from 4 L to 0.5 L while the temperature is held constant. How does the gas pressure change?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

It increases by a factor of eight

Explanation:

When temperature is held constant, gas pressure changes according the volume, in undirectly proportion.

Volume increases →  Pressure decreases

Volume decreases → Pressure increases

As volume gas, was reducted from 4L to 0.5L, it was reduced by 1/8, so the pressure gas was increased by a factor of eight.

Calculate the ph of a 0.10 m solution of hypochlorous acid, hocl. ka of hocl is 3.5×10−8 at 25 ∘c. express your answer numerical
Viktor [21]

Answer:

4.23.

Explanation:

<em>∵ pH = - log[H⁺].</em>

<em>For weak acids:</em>

∵ [H⁺] = √(ka)(c).

∴ [H⁺] = √(3.5 × 10⁻⁸)(0.10 M) = 5.92 x 10⁻⁵.

∴ pH = - log[H⁺] = - log(5.92 x 10⁻⁵) = 4.2279 ≅ 4.23.

Why do you think many metals are good at conducting electricity?<br> Hurry, please!!!
umka2103 [35]
Answer. Metals are excellent conductors because the atoms in a metal form a matrix through which their outer electrons can move freely. Instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a "sea" of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions
