The formula used for determining gas pressure, volume and temperature interaction would be PV=nRT.
<span>• What is the temperature in Kelvins?
</span>You already right at this part. Kelvin temperature formula from celsius should be:
K= C+273.15=
<span>K= 27 +273.15 = 300.15
It is important to remember that the formula in this question is using Kelvin unit at temperature, not Celcius or Fahrenheit.
</span>
<span>• Assuming that everything else remains constant, what will happen to the pressure if the temperature decreases to -15 ºC?
</span>In this case, the temperature is decreased from 27C into -15C and you asked the change in the pressure.
Using PV=nRT formula, you can derive that the temperature will be directly related to pressure. If the temperature decreased, the pressure will be decreased too.
<span> If you increase the number of moles to 6 moles, increase temperature to 400K and reduce the volume to 25 L, what will the new pressure be?
</span>PV=nRT
P= nRT/V
P= 6 moles* <span>0.0821 L*atm/(mol*K) * 400K/25L= 7.8816 atm</span>
As we have the balanced reaction equation is:
N2O4 (g) ↔ 2NO2(g)
from this balanced equation, we can get the equilibrium constant expression
KC = [NO2]^2[N2O4]^1
from this expression, we can see that [NO2 ] is with 2 exponent of the stoichiometric and we can see that from the balanced equation as NO2
is 2NO2 in the balanced equation.
and [N2O4] is with 1 exponent of the stoichiometric and we can see that from the balanced equation as N2O4 is 1 N2O4 in the balanced equation.
∴ the correct exponent for N2O4 in the equilibrium constant expression is 1
, we need to supply it
