How do you express homogeneous reactions in the Keq formula? How is that different than how you express heterogeneous reactions?

Chemistry

Consider the following homogenous reaction:
aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

The equilibrium constant is written as:
Kc = ([C]^c * [D]^d) / ([A]^a * [B]^b)
Therefore the equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentration of the products to concentration of the reactants at equilibrium.

For a heterogenous reaction, the species that are not in the same physical state as the rest of the chemical species are omitted from the expression. Considering the previous reaction, if reactant A was solid and the remaining were gaseous, the expression will be:
Kc = ([C]^c * [D]^d) / [B]^b

When 16.3 g of magnesium and 4.52 g of oxygen gas react, how many grams of magnesium oxide will be formed? Identify the limiting
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

22.77 g.

he limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced reaction:

<em>Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO,</em>

1.0 mole of Mg reacts with 0.5 mole of oxygen to produce 1.0 mole of MgO.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of (16.3 g) of Mg and (4.52 g) of oxygen:

no. of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass = (16.3 g)/(24.3 g/mol) = 0.6708 mol.

no. of moles of O₂ = mass/molar mass = (4.52 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 0.2825 mol.

So. 0.565 mol of Mg reacts completely with (0.2825 mol) of O₂.

<em>∴ The limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg (0.6708 - 0.565 = 0.1058 mol).</em>

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mole of Mg produce → 1.0 mol of MgO.

∴ 0.565 mol of Mg produce → <em>0.565 mol of MgO.</em>

<em>∴ The amount of MgO produced = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (0.565 mol)(40.3 g/mol) = <em>22.77 g.</em>

The vapor pressure of ethanol is 400 mmhg at 63.5°c. its molar heat of vaporization is 39.3 kj/mol. what is vapor pressure of et
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:- The pressure of ethanol would be 109 mmHg.

Solution:- This problem is based on Clausius clapeyron equation--

ln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})=(\frac{\Delta Hvap}{R})(\frac{1}{T_2}-\frac{1}{T_1})

Given, T_1 = 63.5 + 273 = 336.5 K

T_2 = 34.9 + 273 = 307.9 K

P_1 = 400 mmHg

P_2 = ?

\Delta Hvap = 39.3 kJ/mol = 39300 J/mol

R = 8.314 J/mol.K

Let's plug in the values in the equation and do the calculations.

ln(\frac{400}{P_2})=(\frac{39300}{8.314})(\frac{1}{307.9}-\frac{1}{336.5})

ln(\frac{400}{P_2}) = 1.30

On taking anti ln to both sides...

\frac{400}{P_2} = e^1^.^3^0

\frac{400}{P_2} = 3.67

P_2 = 400/3.67

P_2 = 109 mmHg
