can someone explain me the chemical equilibrium and the factors//changes effecting it? (mainly the concept of the equilibrium ti
1 answer:
Answer:
In a chemical reaction, equilibrium is achieved when the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate.
Equilibrium is influenced by the following:
1) pressure
2) temperature
3) concentration
Bear in mind that CATALYST HAS NO IMPACT ON THE EQUILIBRIUM; IT ONLY INCREASES THE RATE.
PRESSURE:
Only if the reaction's left side contains a greater number of molecules can the pressure be increased in order to boost yield.
Thus, because the left side has four molecules and the right side has two, you should increase pressure to increase yield.
TEMPERATURE:
In order to increase yield, raise the temperature only in ENDOTHERMIC FORWARD reactions.
CONCERNTRATION:
Removing the formed product increases yield.

Answer:
The result is 3.859 in which we use four significant figures.
Explanation:
We start by solving the mathematical operation :
The result for the operation is 3.859438 but the numbers in the operation are given with four significant figures and that is why we are going to use four significant figures to express the result
To express 3.859438 with four significant figures we use the first four digits that appear from left to right starting by the first digit that is different to zero
In this case : 3.859 will be the result with four significant figures.
We also use a rule that says : To decide if the last significant figure remains the same we look for the value of the digit at its right.
If that number is greater than or equal to 5 ⇒ we sum one to the last significant figure
For example 3.859738 = 3.860 with four significant figures because the ''7'' is greater that 5
If that number is less than 5 ⇒ the last significant figure remains the same
In our case : 3.859438 = 3.859 because ''4'' is less than ''5''
