Answer:

Below:

Explanation:

To calculate an energy change for a reaction: add together the bond energies for all the bonds in the reactants - this is the 'energy in' add together the bond energies for all the bonds in the products - this is the 'energy out.

For the reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g), what will happen if hydrogen gas was removed from the reaction mixture? There will be a

Hoochie [10]

This uses something called Le Chatelier's principle. It states essentially that any stress put upon a system will be corrected.

In more simple terms, it means that in an equilibrium, such as the equation N2(g) + 3H2(g) <=> 2NH3(g), removing a reactant will cause the system to create more of said reactant to compensate for its loss, or adding excess reactant will cause the system to remove some of the added reactant. For future reference, the same principle applies to products in an equilibrium as well.

In this case, hydrogen gas is a reactant, and hydrogen is being removed. According to Le Chatelier's principle, the system will shift to create more hydrogen gas. In essence, it will shift in the direction of the hydrogen gas, so there will be a shift toward the reactants.

To clear something up, Keq will not change, as it is a constant value with constant conditions (such as temperature, pressure, etc.).

Assuming the metals lose all their valence electrons and the nonmetals gain electrons to complete the s-p subshells, which listi

Nataly [62]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of sodium is 11 and its electronic configuration is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{1}$ . When sodium loses one electron then it will attain +1 charge and its electronic configuration will be as follows.

$Na^{+}$ : $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic configuration is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{5}$ . When fluorine gains an electron then it acquires -1 charge and its electronic configuration is as follows.

$F^{-}$ : $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$

Atomic number of aluminium is 13 and its electronic configuration is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}$ . When aluminium loses its valence electrons then it acquires +3 charge and its electronic configuration is as follows.

$Al^{3+}$ : $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$

Thus, we can conclude that the listing for aluminum is correct.

This gas law works only if temperature is recorded in ———— units

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Kelvin

Explanation:

Gas laws re the laws that relates properties of gases such as pressure, temperature and volume at different conditions.
Gas laws includes, Boyle's law, Charles law, grahams law and pressure law among others.
Temperature is one of the quantity of gases explained by gas laws. For gas laws to work, temperature should always be in Kelvin. Therefore, when given temperature in degrees, it is converted to Kelvin by adding 273, that is °C + 273 = K.

Use VSEPR theory to predict the bond angles in a molecule of methane (CH4), which is a covalently bonded molecule.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

109.5 Degrees

Explanation:

Because CH4 is sp4 hybridized (Carbon is bonded to the 4 Hydrogens), the geometry of the molecule must be tetrahedral. Tetrahedral moleculues have bond angles of 109.5 Degrees.

You are given a liquid. Briefly describe the steps you would take to show whether it is a pure substance or a homogeneous mixtur

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

By using any one technique like boiling, distillation, condensation ,etc , one can be used to distinguish between a pure substance and a homogeneous mixture.

Explanation:

If the liquid is a pure substance, then it can not be separated by using physical means because all atoms of a pure substance show same properties.

But on the other hand, if there is homogeneous mixture, it can be separated by using techniques like boiling, distillation, condensation ,etc.

Thus, using any of the one method listed above can be used to distinguish between a pure substance and a homogeneous mixture.
