Why does the reaction proceed more quickly when the surface area is increased?

The equilibrium 2NO(g)+Cl2(g)⇌2NOCl(g) is established at 500 K. An equilibrium mixture of the three gases has partial pressures

QveST [7]

Answer:

For A: The $K_p$ for the given reaction is $4.0\times 10^1$

For B: The $K_c$ for the given reaction is 1642.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction follows:

$2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NOCl(g)$

For A:

The expression of $K_p$ for the above reaction follows:

$K_p=\frac{(p_{NOCl})^2}{(p_{NO})^2\times p_{Cl_2}}$

We are given:

$p_{NOCl}=0.24 atm\\p_{NO}=9.10\times 10^{-2}atm=0.0910atm\\p_{Cl_2}=0.174atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_p=\frac{(0.24)^2}{(0.0910)^2\times 0.174}\\\\K_p=4.0\times 10^1$

Hence, the $K_p$ for the given reaction is $4.0\times 10^1$

For B:

Relation of $K_p$ with $K_c$ is given by the formula:

$K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta ng}$

where,

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = $4.0\times 10^1$

$K_c$ = equilibrium constant in terms of concentration = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature = 500 K

$\Delta ng$ = change in number of moles of gas particles = $n_{products}-n_{reactants}=2-3=-1$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$4.0\times 10^1=K_c\times (0.0821\times 500)^{-1}\\\\K_c=\frac{4.0\times 10^1}{(0.0821\times 500)^{-1})}=1642$

Hence, the $K_c$ for the given reaction is 1642.

Read the given expression. X = number of protons − number of core electrons Which of the following explains the identity of X an

shepuryov [24]

Answer: The correct statement is X is the effective nuclear charge, and it increases across a period.

Explanation:

We are given that:

X = number of protons − number of core electrons

Effective nuclear charge is defined as the actual nuclear charge (Z = number of protons) minus the screening effect caused by the electrons present between nucleus and valence electrons. These electrons are the core electrons.

The formula used for the calculation of effective nuclear charge given by Slater is:

$Z^*=Z-\sigma$

where,

$Z^*$ = effective nuclear charge

Z = atomic number or actual nuclear charge or number of protons

$\sigma$ = Screening constant

The effective nuclear charge increases as we go from left to right in a period because nuclear charge increases with no effective increase in screening constant.

Hence, the correct answer is X is the effective nuclear charge, and it increases across a period.

f 37.4 grams of water decompose at 297 Kelvin and 1.30 atmospheres, how many liters of oxygen gas can be produced?

Allisa [31]

2H2O=2H2+O2
37.4g H2O(1 mol/18.02)=2.07547 mol H2O
PV=nRT
(1.30)(V)=(2.07547)(.0821)(297)
Vwater=38.92898L
38.92898L (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O)=19.46449L O2 gas
