Based on the vibrational difference you observed, state a hypothesis to explain why diatomic molecules in the air, such as oxyge

n and nitrogen, are not greenhouse gases while those with 3 or more atoms, such as methane, are?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The ability of a gas to function as a green house gas depends on its ability to absorb infra red rays. In turn, the absorption of infrared red rays depends on whether or not the molecule is IR active.

The triatomic molecules such as methane and water are IR active. Only IR active molecules can lead to green house effect.

Note that for a molecular vibrational mode to be IR active, the dipole moment of the molecule is changed as the vibration occurs .

Write the fraction of the mass of kcl produced from 1 g of k2c03​
Minchanka [31]

Mass of KCl= 1.08 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

1 g of K₂CO₃

Required

Mass of KCl

Solution

Reaction

K₂CO₃ +2HCl ⇒ 2KCl +H₂O + CO₂

mol of K₂CO₃(MW=138 g/mol) :

= 1 g : 138 g/mol

= 0.00725

From the equation, mol ratio K₂CO₃ : KCl = 1 : 2, so mol KCl :

= 2/1 x mol K₂CO₃

= 2/1 x 0.00725

= 0.0145

Mass of KCl(MW=74.5 g/mol) :

= mol x MW

= 0.0145 x 74.5

= 1.08 g

Assume the hydrolysis of ATP proceeds with ΔG′° = –30 kJ/mol. ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi Which expression gives the ratio of ADP to AT
Andru [333]

Answer:

6.14\cdot 10^{-6}

Explanation:

Firstly, write the expression for the equilibrium constant of this reaction:

K_{eq} = \frac{[ADP][Pi]}{ATP}

Secondly, we may relate the change in Gibbs free energy to the equilibrium constant using the equation below:

\Delta G^o = -RT ln K_{eq}

From here, rearrange the equation to solve for K:

K_{eq} = e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}

Now we know from the initial equation that:

K_{eq} = \frac{[ADP][Pi]}{ATP}

Let's express the ratio of ADP to ATP:

\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}}

Substitute the expression for K:

\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}} = \frac{[Pi]}{e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}}

Now we may use the values given to solve:

\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}} = \frac{[Pi]}{e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}} = [Pi]e^{\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}} = 1.0 M\cdot e^{\frac{-30 kJ/mol}{2.5 kJ/mol}} = 6.14\cdot 10^{-6}

What can be said about the spontaneity of this reaction? cdiamond→cgraphite
anastassius [24]
The gibbs free energy of the reaction of diamond to graphite is equal to -2.90 kJ/mol. The free energy is negative which means that the reaction is spontaneous. Therefore, the forward reaction is favored. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
