<span>The answer is electrolysis. This is the chemical reaction that decomposes a substance (usually while in its liquid state) to its components by passing an electric current through it. Electrolysis of water is used to produce hydrogen fuel and also produce oxygen that can be used to supplement breathable air such as in submarines. </span>

Decomposition is the  example  of a  reaction  in  which  hydrogen and oxygen  are  produced  by  running   an  electric current  through  water.

 Decomposition  of   water through  electrolysis  of  water  into   oxygen  and hydrogen   gas  due  an electric  current  passed  through   water.   when an  electric  current  is passed through  water, oxygen   gas is being  produced  at  the anode  and  hydrogen  gas  is produced  at the  cathode.

A mixture of water and graphite is heated to 600 K in a 1 L container. When the system comes to equilibrium it contains 0.17 mol
Kryger [21]

Answer:

0.44 moles

Explanation:

Given that :

A mixture of water and graphite is heated to 600 K in a 1 L container. When the system comes to equilibrium it contains 0.17 mol of H2, 0.17 mol of CO, 0.74 mol of H2O, and some graphite.

The equilibrium constant K_c=  \dfrac{[CO][H_2]}{[H_2O]}

The equilibrium constant  K_c=  \dfrac{(0.17 )(0.17)}{0.74}

The equilibrium constant K_c=  0.03905

Some O2 is added to the system and a spark is applied so that the H2 reacts completely with the O2.

The equation for the reaction is :

H_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}O_2 \to H_2O \\ \\ 0.17 \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \to0.17

Total mole of water now = 0.74+0.17

Total mole of water now = 0.91 moles

Again:

K_c=  \dfrac{[CO][H_2]}{[H_2O]}

0.03905 =  \dfrac{[0.17+x][x]}{[0.91 -x]}

0.03905(0.91 -x) = (0.17 +x)(x)

0.0355355 - 0.03905x = 0.17x + x²

0.0355355 +0.13095 x -x²

x² - 0.13095 x - 0.0355355 = 0

By using quadratic formula

x = 0.265  or   x = -0.134

Going by the value with the positive integer; x = 0.265 moles

Total moles of CO in the flask when the system returns to equilibrium is :

= 0.17 + x

= 0.17 + 0.265

= 0.435 moles

=0.44 moles (to two significant figures)

Gaseous hydrogen iodide is placed in a closed container at 425∘C, where it partially decomposes to hydrogen and iodine: 2HI(g)⇌H
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

0.0184

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction at equilibrium.

2 HI(g) ⇌ H₂(g) + I₂(g)

The concentration equilibrium constant (Kc) is equal to the product of the concentration of the products raised to their  stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentration of the reactants raised to their  stoichiometric coefficients.

Kc = [H₂] × [I₂] / [HI]²

Kc = (4.78 × 10⁻⁴) × (4.78 × 10⁻⁴) / (3.52 × 10⁻³)²

Kc = 0.0184

Find the mass of 1.00 mol NaCl
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:  One mol of NaCl (6.02 x1023 formulas) has a mass of 58.44 g.

To go from grams to moles, divide the grams by the molar mass. 600 g58.443 g/mol = 10.27 mol of NaCl.
