How will the following changes affect the mole fraction of chlorine gas, χcl2, in the equilibrium mixture.?

1 answer:

4 0

If the reaction is represented by:
PCl₃ + Cl₂ <-> PCl₅ (exothermic)

the mole fraction of chlorine in the equilibrium mixture will change according to the following:
Decrease the volume: decrease
Increase the temperature: increase
Increase the volume: increase
Decrease the temperature: decrease

Which of the following types of molecules always has a dipole moment? Linear molecules with two identical bonds. Trigonal pyrami

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Trigonal pyramid molecules (three identical bonds)

Explanation:

In trigonal pyramidal molecule like molecule of ammonia , the vector some of intra- molecular dipole moment is not zero because the bonds are not symmetrically oriented . In other molecules , bonds are symmetrically oriented in space so the vector sum of all the internal dipole moment vectors cancel each other to make total dipole moment zero.

Crime scene investigators keep a wide variety of compounds on hand to help with identifying unknown substances they find in the

Sergio039 [100]

So 100 g of this substance has 63.57 g of carbon, 6 g of hydrogen, 9.267 of nitrogen, and 21.17 of oxygen. I need to have them all in moles (n). You can find the molar mass (M) of each element in a periodic table.

n = m/M
63.57 g C -> 63.57 g C/12.01 g/mol = 5.29 moles C
6 g H -> 6 g C/1.008 g/mol = 5.95 moles H
9.267 g N -> 9.267 g N/14.01 g/mol = 0.6615 moles N
21.17 g O -> 21.17/16.00 g/mol = 1.32 moles O

So the minimum formula has this rate:

C 5.29 H 5.95 N 0.6615 O 1.32

Now you should divide all those numbers by the smallest one (1.32):

C 4 H 4.5 N 0.5 0 1

Now it looks a lot more like a molecular formula… but we still have fractions.

Let’s multiply all numbers by 2:

C8H9N1O2

<span>Now they are all whole numbers!
</span>

So the minimum formula is C8H9NO2

The minimum formula is not always equal to the molecular formula… but in this case, I found there is a molecular formula with this same numbers, and it’s called acetaminophen.

Why does 4.03/0.0000035 = 1.2 x 106, instead of a different number of significant figures?

jasenka [17]

Explanations:- As per the significant figures rule, In multiplication and division, we go with least number of sig figs.

4.03 has three sig figs where as 0.0000035 has two sig figs only, The zeros in this number are not sig figs as they are just holding the place values. As the least number of sig figs here is two, the answer needs to be reported with two sig figs only.

$\frac{4.03}{0.0000035}=1.2*10^6$

When you mixed 20 grams of magnesium and an excess of nitric acid, 1.7 grams of hydrogen was actually produced. What is the perc

Kitty [74]

Based on the balanced chemical reaction presented above, every mole of magnesium (Mg) yields one mole of diatomic hydrogen (H2). When converted to masses, every 24.3 grams of magnesium yields 2 grams of hydrogen.

From the given, there are 20 grams of magnesium available for the reaction. With this amount, the expected yield of hydrogen is 1.646 grams. To calculate the percent yield, divide the actual yield to the hypothetical yield.

*The case is impossible because the actual yield is greater than the theoretical yield.

If we assume that there had been a typographical error and that the actual yield is 0.7 grams instead of 1.7 grams, the percent yield becomes 42.5%. Thus, the answer is letter E.
