Answer:

The rain shadow effect

Explanation:

A rain shadow is an area of land that was forced to become a desert because a mountain or mountain range blocked all the necessary weather for plants to grow... after the air crosses over the mountains peak and begins going down the other side, the air warms up which means there's less rainfall.

What is chemical reaction?​
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as distinct from a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction.

Or

Chemical reaction, a process in which one or more substances, the reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, the products. ... A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products.

A student made a graph to show the chemical equilibrium position of a reaction.
pogonyaev

Answer:

Concentration, because the amounts of reactants and products remain constant after equilibrium is reached.

Explanation:

The rate of reaction refers to the amount of reactants converted or products formed per unit time.

As the reaction progresses, reactions are converted into products. This continues until equilibrium is attained in a closed system.

When equilibrium is attained, the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of reverse reaction, hence the concentration of reactants and products in the system remain fairly constant over time.

When deducing the rate of reaction, concentration of the specie of interest is plotted on the y-axis against time on the x-axis.

A chemist fills a reaction vessel with 9.20 atm nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas, 9.15 atm chlorine (CI) gas, and 7.70 atm nitrosyl ch
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The reactions free energy \Delta G = -49.36 kJ

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The pressure of (NO) is P_{NO} = 9.20 \ atm

      The  pressure of  (Cl) gas is  P_{Cl} = 9.15 \ atm

       The  pressure of nitrosly chloride (NOCl) is P_{(NOCl)} = 7.70 \ atm

The reaction is

              2NO_{(g)} + Cl_2 (g)    ⇆   2 NOCl_{(g)}

 From the reaction we can  mathematically evaluate the \Delta G^o (Standard state  free energy ) as

                    \Delta G^o = 2 \Delta G^o _{NOCl} -   \Delta G^o _{Cl_2}  - 2 \Delta G^o _{NO}

The Standard state  free energy for NO is  constant with a value  

                 \Delta G^o _{NO} = 86.55 kJ/mol

 The Standard state  free energy for Cl_2 is  constant with a value                  

             \Delta G^o _{Cl_2} = 0kJ/mol

 The Standard state  free energy for NOCl is  constant with a value

         \Delta G^o _{NOCl} =66.1kJ/mol

Now substituting this into the equation

        \Delta G^o = 2 * 66.1 - 0 - 2 * 87.6

                = -43 kJ/mol

The pressure constant is evaluated as

         Q =  \frac{Pressure \ of  \ product }{ Pressure  \ of \ reactant }

Substituting  values  

        Q = \frac{(7.7)^2 }{(9.2)^2 (9.15) } = \frac{59.29}{774.456}

           = 0.0765

The free energy for this reaction is evaluated as

           \Delta  G  =  \Delta  G^o  + RT ln Q

Where R is gas constant with a value  of  R = 8.314 J / K \cdot mol

          T is temperature in K  with a given value of  T = 25+273 = 298 K

   Substituting value

                \Delta  G  = -43 *10^{3} + 8.314 *298 * ln [0.0765]

                       = -43-6.36

                      \Delta G = -49.36 kJ
