When the oxide of generic metal m is heated at 25.0 °c, only a negligible amount of m is produced. o2m(s ----> m(s o2(g delta

g= 288.9 kj/mol when this reaction is coupled to the conversion of graphite to carbon dioxide, it becomes spontaneous. what is the chemical equation of this coupled process? show that the reaction is in equilibrium, include physical states, and represent graphite as c(s. i got an answer of : o2m(s c(s ----> m(s co2(g this is correct. i need help on this part of the question: what is the thermodynamic equilbrium constant for the coupled reaction? i attempted this twice and got k=1.22 and 0.89 and they are both wrong. please help?

(1) MO₂(s) + C(s) → M(s) + CO₂ (g),  ΔG₁ = 288.9 kJ/mol
(2) C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g),   ΔG₂ = -394.4 kJ/mol
By adding both equations 1 + 2 we get the coupled reaction:
MO₂(s) + 2 C(s) + O₂(g) → M(s) + 2 CO₂(g)
ΔG⁰ = ΔG₁ + ΔG₂ 
       = 288.9 + (-394.4) = -105.5 kJ/mol = -105500 J/mol
Temperature T = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K
Molar gas constant R = 8.314 J/mol.K
K = e^{ \frac{-dG0}{RT} }
   = e^{ \frac{105500}{8.314 x 298.15} } 
    = 3.05 x 10¹⁸

Write a balanced half-reaction for the oxidation of aqueous hydrazine N2H4 to gaseous nitrogen N2 in basic aqueous solution
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

N2H2(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) ----------> N2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 2e

Explanation:

Hydrazine is mostly used in thermal engineering as an anticorrosive agent. Hydrazine can be oxidized in aqueous solution as shown in the equation above. Oxidation has to do with loss of electrons and increase in oxidation number.

The oxidation number of nitrogen in the equation increased from -1 in hydrazine on the lefthand side of the reaction equation to zero in nitrogen on the right hand side of the reaction equation. Two electrons were lost in the process as shown.

An objects kinetic energy increases as its velocity increases?
stira [4]

Answer:

Because kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, increases in velocity will have an exponentially greater effect on translation kinetic energy. Doubling the mass of an object will only double its kinetic energy, but doubling the velocity of the object will quadruple its velocity.

According to cell theory, how are bubble algae, or sea pearls, made?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer: Bubble algae are caused by lighting, nutrients and bubble algae spores. The spores were probably on the live rock. The lighting is a side effect of trying to keep photosynthetic corals.

How many subshells are there in the shell with n = 6?
andre [41]
The number of subshells within a certain shell can be identified using the orbital angular momentum quantum number "l"

"l" is given values from zero till (n-1)
So, for n=6
l is given the following values: 0,1,2,3,4,5
Counting the number of subshells, we will find that the shell with n=6 has 6 subshells
