Explanation:

Percent errors tells you how big your errors are when you measure something in an experiment. Smaller percent errors mean that you are close to the accepted or real value. For example, a 1% error means that you got very close to the accepted value, while 45% means that you were quite a long way off from the true value.

What is the volume of HCl gas required to react with excess magnesium metal to produce 6.82 L of hydrogen gas at 2.19 atm and 35

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

2 HCl(g) + Mg(s) → MgCl₂(s) + H₂(g)

Let's calculate the quantity of mole of produced hydrogen with the Ideal Gases Law

P . V = n . R .T

2.19 atm . 6.82L = n . 0.082 . 308K

(2.19 atm . 6.82L) / (0.082 . 308K) = n

0.591 mol = n

1 mol of H₂ gas came from 2 mol of hydrochloric, so, 0.591 mol came from the double of mole

0.591 .2 = 1.182 mole of acid.

Molar mass of HCl = 36.45 g/m

1.182 mole are (36.45 g/m . 1.182g ) contained in 43.1 g

Density HCl = HCl mass / HCl volume

0,118 g/mL = 43.1 g / HCl volume

43.1 g / 0.118 g/mL = 365.3 mL (HCl volume)

Consider the following reaction where Kc = 1.80×10-2 at 698 K:

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The system is not in equilibrium and the reaction must run in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient Qc is a measure of the relative amount of products and reagents present in a reaction at any given time, which is calculated in a reaction that may not yet have reached equilibrium.

For the reversible reaction aA + bB⇔ cC + dD, where a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced equation, Qc is calculated by:

$Qc=\frac{[C]^{c}*[D]^{d} } {[A]^{a}*[B]^{b}}$

In this case:

$Qc=\frac{[H_{2} ]*[I_{2} ] } {[HI]^{2}}$

Since molarity is the concentration of a solution expressed in the number of moles dissolved per liter of solution, you have:

$[H_{2} ]=\frac{2.09*10^{-2} moles}{1 Liter}$ =2.09*10⁻² $\frac{moles}{liter}$

$[I_{2} ]=\frac{4.14*10^{-2} moles}{1 Liter}$ =4.14*10⁻² $\frac{moles}{liter}$

$[I_{2} ]=\frac{0.280 moles}{1 Liter}$ = 0.280 $\frac{moles}{liter}$

So,

$Qc=\frac{2.09*10^{-2} *4.14*10^{-2} } {0.280^{2} }$

Qc= 0.011

Comparing Qc with Kc allows to find out the status and evolution of the system:

If the reaction quotient is equal to the equilibrium constant, Qc = Kc, the system has reached chemical equilibrium.

If the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, Qc> Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. In this case the direct reaction predominates and there will be more product present than what is obtained at equilibrium. Therefore, this product is used to promote the reverse reaction and reach equilibrium. The system will then evolve to the left to increase the reagent concentration.

If the reaction quotient is less than the equilibrium constant, Qc <Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. The concentration of the reagents is higher than it would be at equilibrium, so the direct reaction predominates. Thus, the system will evolve to the right to increase the concentration of products.

Being Qc=0.011 and Kc=1.80⁻²=0.018, then Qc<Kc. <u><em>The system is not in equilibrium and the reaction must run in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.</em></u>

Answer : The temperature of the air in the tire is, 341 K

Explanation :

Gay-Lussac's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.
