Although it is omitted, the reaction equation for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride is:
PCl₅ → PCl₃ + Cl₂
The equilibrium constant's equation then becomes:
Kc = [PCl₃]*[Cl₂] / [PCl₅]
Kc = (0.02 * 0.02) / 0.0095
Kc = 0.042
The equilibrium constant is 0.042.
The role of a spark plug is to supply some of the energy of activation for the combustion reaction.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- A Spark plug is a tiny bolt of lightning in which a spark of electricity is emitted across a gap creating the ignition of the combustion chamber thereby starting the engine. By putting an engine piston in motion we can power up which produces a smooth burn of the compressed air-fuel mixture.
- An electrical device that fits into the cylinder head and ignites compressed aerosol gasoline by an electric spark. They have an insulated electrode connected to a coil that ignites thereby producing sparks.
- The spark plug works as a heat exchanger. They tend to pull unwanted thermal energy from the combustion chamber and heat is transferred to the engine's cooling system. Thus they supply some of the energy for the activation of engines.
Option C: elements produce spectra with only few distinct lines.
The spectra are not continuos and are different for every element. This permits to identify elements.
