<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is the compound which is formed by the covalent bonding of hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The chemical formula for this compound is H_2O

Self-ionization of water is defined as the process in which 2 water molecules react together to produce hydroxide ion and hydronium ion.

The equation for the self ionization of water molecule follows:

2H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3O^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq,)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of water molecules react together to produce 1 mole of hydronium ion and 1 mole of hydroxide ion.

Hence, the correct answer is Option b.

A sample of pure NH4HS is placed in a sealed 2.0-L container and heated to 550 K at which the equilibrium constant is 3.5 x 10-3
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The mass of NH_{3} in the container is 2.074 gram

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of NH_{4} HS    V = 2 lit

Equilibrium constant k _{eq} = 3.5 \times 10^{-3}

The reaction in which NH_{3} is produced

  NH_{4} HS ⇄ NH_{3} + H_{2}S

Here equal moles of NH_{3} and H_{2}S is formed.

From the formula of equilibrium constant,

  k_{eq} = (NH_{3})(H_{2}S )

   x^{2} = 3.5 \times 10^{-3}

     x = 0.061 M

Above value shows,

   NH_{3} = 0.061 \frac{moles}{L}

So in 2 L no. moles of NH_{3} = 0.061 \times 2 = 0.122 moles.

So mass of 0.122 mole of NH_{3} is = 0.122 \times 17 = 2.074 g

Therefore, the mass of NH_{3} in the container is 2.074 gram

1. This is a combustion reaction.<span>

<span>Combustion reactions can happen with the </span>presence of O</span>₂ <span>gas. O₂<span> reacts with another element or compound and </span></span>oxidize<span> it. Here ethanol reacts with O₂<span> and produces </span></span>CO₂ and H₂O as products.<span> <span>Combustion is also called as </span></span>burning. <span>

2. Reaction will shift to right. <span>

</span><span>If more CH</span>₃CH₂OH is added to the system, then the</span> amount of CH₃CH₂OH will increase.<span> <span>Then the equilibrium in the system </span></span>will be broken.<span> <span>To make the equilibrium again, the </span></span>added CH₃CH₂OH should be removed.<span> To do that system will consume more CH</span>₃CH₂<span>OH to make products which helps to decrease the amount of ethanol. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.<span>

3. The reaction will shift to right.</span><span>

</span><span>If the water is extracted from the system, the </span>amount of water will decrease. <span>That means the </span>amount of products decrease. Then the system will try to gain equilibrium by increasing the water. To increase water the forward reaction should be enhanced. <span>Hence, the</span> reaction will shift to right.<span>

4. The reaction will shift to right.

</span><span>This is an </span>exothermic reaction <span>since it </span>produces heat. If the produced heat is removed, then the system will be cold. To maintain the temperature, system has to increase the amount of heat produced. Then, the forward reaction should be enhanced. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.<span>

5. The Le Chatelier's principle.
