List three things you would need to consider to determine whether or not a chemical system is at equilibrium?

2 answers:

6 0

First of all you need a chemical system ie a system in which there are at least two reactants to start with. Then there needs to be a reaction between the reactants so that products are being created. Finally it needs to be determined at what point there are no more products being created, and that then should represent equilibrium.

Chemical system is at equilibrium<span> if both reactants and products are present in concentrations which have no further tendency to change with time. To determine whether or not a chemical system is at equilibrium the following things need to be taken into consideration:
1. If the system is open, the chemical system is 100% not in equilibrium. (</span><span>Equilibrium may only be obtained in a closed system).
2. If t</span><span>he forward and reverse </span>reactions are happening at equal rates, then the system is at <span>equilibrium.
3. If t</span>he products and reactants are present in equal concentrations, then the system is at <span>equilibrium.</span>

How does the density of a gas depend on the molar mass of the gas?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The density of the ideal gas is directly proportional to its molar mass.

Explanation:

Density is a scalar quantity that is denoted by the symbol ρ (rho). It is defined as the ratio of the mass (m) of the given sample and the total volume (V) of the sample.

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$ ......equation (1)

According to the ideal gas law for ideal gas:

$PV = nRT$ ......equation (2)

Here, V is the volume of gas, P is the pressure of gas, T is the absolute temperature, R is Gas constant and n is the number of moles of gas

As we know,

The number of moles: $n = \frac{m}{M}$

where m is the given mass of gas and M is the molar mass of the gas

So equation (2) can be written as:

$PV = \frac{m}{M}RT$

⇒ $PM= \frac{m}{V} RT$

⇒ $\frac{PM}{RT}= \frac{m}{V}$ ......equation (3)

Now from equation (1) and (3), we get

$\frac{PM}{RT}= \frac{m}{V} = \rho$

⇒ Density of an ideal gas: $\rho = \frac{PM}{RT}$

⇒ <em>Density of an ideal gas: ρ ∝ molar mass of gas: M</em>

<u>Therefore, the density of the ideal gas is directly proportional to its molar mass. </u>

A 10.0 g pat of butter raise the water level in a graduated cylinder by 11.6 mL. What is the density of the butter

Nina [5.8K]

- formula for density is mass divided by volume

therefore density of butter = 10.0g divided by 11.6ml = 0.8620689 g/cm³ ≈ 0.862 g/cm³ (3sf)

What volume (L) of 0.250 M HNO3 is required to neutralize a solution prepared by dissolving 17.5 g of NaOH in 350 mL of water ?

IRINA_888 [86]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.75 L HNO₃

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Molarity of HNO₃ as 0.250 M

Mass of NaOH as 17.5 g

Volume of NaOH = 350 mL

We are required to calculate the volume of 0.250 M

We are going to first write the balanced reaction:

NaOH(aq) + HNO₃(aq) → NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Then, we calculate the number of moles of NaOH

Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Molar mass of NaOH = 39.997 g/mol

= 17.5 g ÷ 39.997 g/mol

= 0.4375 moles

We can now calculate the number of moles of HNO₃ using the mole ratio from the equation;

Mole ratio of NaOH to HNO₃ is 1 : 1

Therefore, if moles of NaOH are 0.4375 moles then;

Moles of HNO₃ will also be 0.4375 moles

We can now calculate the volume of HNO₃

Morality = Number of moles ÷ Volume

Thus;

Volume = Number of moles ÷ Molarity

= 0.4375 moles ÷ 0.250 M

= 1.75 L

Therefore, the volume of HNO₃ is 1.75 L
