In a chemical reaction, the equilibrium constant refers to the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium, that is, a condition attained by a dynamic chemical system after adequate time has passed, and at which its composition has no measurable capacity to undergo any kind of further modification.
The given reaction is: HCN (aq) + OH⁻ = CN⁻ (aq) + H2O (l)
The equilibrium constant = product of concentration of products / product of concentration of reactants
(Here, H2O is not considered as its concentration is very high)
So, Keq = [CN⁻] / [HCN] [OH⁻]
Answer:
485.76 g of CO₂ can be made by this combustion
Explanation:
Combustion reaction:
2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂ (g) → 8 CO₂ (g) + 10 H₂O (g)
If we only have the amount of butane, we assume the oxygen is the excess reagent.
Ratio is 2:8. Let's make a rule of three:
2 moles of butane can produce 8 moles of dioxide
Therefore, 2.76 moles of butane must produce (2.76 . 8)/ 2 = 11.04 moles of CO₂
We convert the moles to mass → 11.04 mol . 44g / 1 mol = 485.76 g
