Answer:

Kc = 0.0216

Explanation:

To do this, we need to write the equilibrium reaction which is the following:

NH3 + O2 <------> N2O4 + H2O

And now, let's balance the equation

4NH3 + 7O2 <--------> 2N2O4 + 6H2O

The general expression for Kc is:

Kc = [N2O4]²[H2O]⁶ / [O2]⁷[NH3]⁴

Now, in order to know the concentrations, we need to do an ICE chart here, so we can know the final concentrations of all species here:

         4NH3 + 7O2 <--------> 2N2O4 + 6H2O

I:          3.6        3.6                      0            0

C:         -4x       -7x                      +2x        +6x

E:      3.6 - 4x   3.6 - 7x              0.6          +6x

According to this, we know that N2O4 is 0.6M, but in the change we have that it gained 2x so the value of x will be:

2x = 0.6

x = 0.6/2 = 0.3

Therefore, the value of x is 0.3 ans we can know now the concentrations of all species in equilibrium, and then, the kc:

[NH3] = 3.6 - 4(0.3) = 2.4 M

[O2] = 3.6 - 7(0.3) = 1.5 M

[H2O] = 6(0.3) = 1.8 M

Now the value of Kc would be:

Kc = (0.6)² (1.8)⁶ / (2.4)⁴ (1.5)⁷

Kc = 0.0216

In the activity series, any metal on the list can be oxidized by the ions of elements_______it.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Below

Nitric acid

Lead

Sodium nitrate

Explanation:

The activity series is an arrangement of metals in order of decreasing reactivity. Metals that are higher up in the series displace metals that are lower in the series from dilute solutions. Hence, when the ion of a metal that is lower in the series reacts with a metal that is higher up in the series, the latter is oxidized.

Dilute acids dissolve metals above hydrogen in the activity series such as as zinc and lead. Platinum is much lower than sodium in the activity series hence platinum does not react with sodium nitrate.

Answer:

A) 3.17 g of Zn

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Zn(II) that occurs in an electrolysis bath.

Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ → Zn(s)

We can establish the following relations:

  • 1 min = 60 s
  • 1 A = 1 C/s
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant).
  • When 2 moles of electrons circulate, 1 mole of Zn is deposited.
  • The molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol

The mass of Zn deposited under these conditions is:

24min \times \frac{60s}{1min} \times \frac{6.5C}{s} \times \frac{1mol\ e^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molZn}{2mol\ e^{-}}  \times \frac{65.38g}{1molZn} = 3.17 g

What is the average atomic mass of hafnium given the following abundance information on the isotopes?
Goryan [66]

Answer:

178.55

Explanation:

176 × 0.05+ 177 × 0.19 + 178 × 0.27 + 179 × 0.14 + 180 × 0.35 = 178.55

After attending his cousin's birthday party in his backyard, Michael forgot his balloon outside when he went to bed. Overnight,
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

You see, we must cast our minds back to Charles' law. Charles' law gives the relationship between the volume of a gas and temperature of the gas.

Now, Micheal left the balloon outside at a particular temperature and volume the previous night. Overnight, the temperature dropped significantly and so must the volume of the gas in the balloon!

Remember that Charles' law states that, the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure. Since the pressure was held constant, the drop in the volume of gas in the balloon can be accounted for by the drop in temperature overnight.
