Surface tension, property of a liquid surface displayed by its acting as if it were a stretched elastic membrane. This phenomenon can be observed in the nearly spherical shape of small drops of liquids and of soap bubbles. Because of this property, certain insects can stand on the surface of water.

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces at rest to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. Surface tension is what allows objects with a higher density than water such as razor blades and insects (e.g. water striders) to float on a water surface without becoming even partly submerged.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.

Solution :

First we have to calculate the concentration of NO.

\text{Concentration of NO}=\frac{\text{Moles of }NO}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.3152mol}{2.0L}=0.1576M

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                           N_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)

Initially conc.      0        0           0.1576

At eqm.               (x)       (x)        (0.1576-2x)

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[NO]^2}{[N_2][O_2]}

0.0153=\frac{(0.1576-2x)^2}{(x)\times (x)}

By solving the term, we get:

x=0.0742,0.0839

Neglecting the 0.0839 value of x because it can not be more than initial value.

Thus, the value of 'x' will be, 0.0742 M

Now we have to calculate the equilibrium concentration of NO.

Equilibrium concentration of NO = (0.1576-2x) = [0.1576-2(0.0742)] = 0.0092 M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of NO is, 0.0092 M.
