Following are the types of chemical reactions with a brief overview:
<span>1) Combination (Two elements combine to form a compound)
2) Decomposition (A compound is broken into elements)
3) Single displacement (An element displaces an element present in a compound)
4) Double displacement (The elements of two compounds displace each other)
5) Combustion (Burning Takes places)
<span>6) Redox (Oxidation Reduction Reaction)
If you see the given equation, Al is displacing Ni in the compound NiSO4 and taking its place. Ni is set free as a separate element. So this type of reaction is known as Single Displacement Reaction.</span></span>
Following are the limitations of a chemical equation: (i) A chemical equation does not tell us the physical state of the reactants and the products in the reaction. (ii) It does not tell us the actual concentration or dilution of the reactants used in the reaction
“Models are developed when a scientist’s creativity and insight are combined with data and observations about many similar scenarios”. Models are used for a lot of things in science. As we know everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the same applies to models. Models help us illustrate the concept and formulate hypothesis. When models are used, the scientists are able to notice patterns and develop and revise representation that become a useful model, which makes their scientific knowledge stronger and helps them understand more about the nature of science. Models are a simplified representation. One of the biggest advantages of the model is, that it allows you to have a look at things which are too small such as atoms or too big such as the solar system.
Although, having many benefits, models have quite a number of disadvantages. Models sometimes oversimplify the process therefore leading to a misunderstanding. As models are supposed to be a simplified representation, they will not be complex, which means they will lack detail. For Example “our particle model explains many things about matter, it is not comprehensive — for example, it cannot predict why certain materials have different electrical properties. We could add further refinements that are outside the scope of this course to enable it to do so, but it would make our model so complicated that it would no longer be useful to us”
Answer:
3.8 x 10⁵
Explanation:
For the equilibrium : 3NO(g) ⇌ N2O(g) + NO2(g), the equilibrium constant in the terms of the concentrations of the gases in mol/L is
Kc = (NO) (N2O)/ (NO) ³ where (NO), (N2O) , (NO2) are the concentrations of the gases in mol/L . So
K= (x mol/ 1 L) (x mol/1L) / (7.5 x 10⁻⁶ mol /1 L) ³
x = mol of NO and NO2 at equilibrium
we have that
K = x²/ 7.5 x 10⁻⁶ = 1.9 x 10¹⁶
x = √ (7.5 x 10⁻⁶ x 1.9 x 10¹⁶) = 3.8 x 10⁵
∴ (N2O) = 3.8 x 10⁵
