A student puts 0.020 mol of methyl methanoate into an empty and rigid 1.0 L vessel at 450 K. The pressure is measured to be 0.74

atm. When the experiment is repeated using 0.020 mol of ethanoic acid instead of methyl methanoate, the measured pressure is lower than 0.74 atm. The lower pressure for ethanoic acid is due to the following reversible reaction.CH3COOH(g)+CH3COOH(g) ⇋ (CH3COOH)2(g)+Assume that when equilibrium has been reached, 50 percent of the ethanoic acid molecules have reacted.i. Calculate the total pressure in the vessel at equilibrium at 450 K.ii. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, Kp, for the reaction at 450 K

Explanation:

Starting moles of ethanol acid = 0.020 mol

At the equilibrium 50 % of the ethanol acid molecules reacted

∴ Moles of ethanol acid reacted = 0.020 mol * 50 %/100 %

                                                                   = 0.010 mol

Moles of ethanol acid remain = 0.020 mol + 0.010 mol = 0.010 mol

Moles of the product (CH3COOH)^{2} gas formed are calculated as

0.010 mol CH3COOH * 1 mol (CH3COOH)^{2} / 2 mol CH3COOH

= 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

Therefore at the equilibrium total moles of gas present in the vessel are 0.010 mol CH3COOH and 0.005 mol (CH3COOH)^{2}

That is total gas moles at equilibrium = 0.010 mol + 0.005 mol = 0.015 mol

Now Calculate the pressure  :

0.020 mol gas has pressure of 0.74 atm therefore at the same condition what will be the pressure exerted by 0.015 mol gas

P1/n1 = P2/n2

P2 = P1*n2 / n1

      = 0.74 atm * 0.015 mol / 0.020 mol

     = 0.555 atm

If a train travels from San Antonio to El Paso at a speed of 90 mph, how far will it
Minchanka [31]

Answer:it have traveled a total of 315 miles

Explanation: 90 times three because 90 mph times 3 hours=270miles+ the 45 miles from the 30 min times 90 mph=45+ 270=315.

A 32.5 g iron rod, initially at 22.4 ∘C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.0 ∘C, in an insulated container. The f
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

m_{H_2O}=39.0g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, is possible to infer that the thermal equilibrium is governed by the following relationship:

\Delta H_{iron}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}\\m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})=-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})

Thus, both iron's and water's heat capacities are: 0.444 and 4.18 J/g°C respectively, so one solves for the mass of water as shown below:

m_{H_2O}=\frac{m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})}{-Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O}} \\\\m_{H_2O}=\frac{32.5g*0.444\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-22.4)^0C}{-4.18\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-63.0)^0C} \\\\m_{H_2O}=39.0g

Best regards.

An important difference between fuel cells and batteries is that batteries _______. Select the correct answer below: do not requ
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: the correct option is that batteries (do NOT require a continuous source of fuel).

Explanation:

A battery can be classified as an electrochemical cell that has the ability to produce electric current. They do NOT require a continuous supply of fuel because it contains all the reactants needed to produce electricity. Below are some examples of batteries that are commonly used:

--> Primary battery: This is a single use battery because it can't be recharged. A typical example is the dry cell.

--> Secondary battery: This type of battery can be recharged. They are used as a power source for smartphones, electronic tablets, and automobiles.

A FUEL CELL is known as a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Fuel cells are similar to batteries but require a continuous source of fuel, often hydrogen. They will continue to produce electricity as long as they are constantly resupplied with reactants. Hydrogen fuel cells have been used to supply power for satellites, space capsules, automobiles, boats, and submarines.
