If one starts with pure NO2(g) at a pressure of 0.500 atm, the total pressure inside the reaction vessel when 2NO2(g) 2NO(g) + O

2(g) reaches equilibrium is 0.674 atm. Calculate the equilibrium partial pressure of NO2.

Answer:

The partial pressure of NO2 = 0.152 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Pressure NO2 = 0.500 atm

Total pressure at equilibrium = 0.674 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

2NO2(g) → 2NO(g) + O2(g)

Step 3: The initial pressure

pNO2 = 0.500 atm

pNO = 0 atm

p O2 = 0 atm

Step 4: Calculate pressure at the equilibrium

For 2 moles NO2 we'll have 2 moles NO and 1 mol O2

pNO2 = 0.500 - 2x atm

pNO =2x atm

pO2 = xatm

The total pressure = p(total) = p(NO2) + p(NO) + p(O2)

p(total) = (0.500 - 2x) + 2x + x= 0.674 atm

0.500 + x = 0.674 atm

x = 0.174 atm

This means the partial pressure of NO2 = 0.500 - 2*0.174 = 0.152 atm

Nataly_w [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$[P^{2-}]$ = 0.042 M, $K_{a}$ for $HP^{-} = 3.9 \times 10^{-6}$

According to the given situation $P^{2-}$ acts as a base.The reaction equation will be as follows.

$P^{2-} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons HP^{-} + OH^{-}$

Relation between $K_{b}$ and $K_{a}$ are as follows.

$K_{a} \times K_{b} = K_{w}$

$K_{b} = \frac{1 \times 10^{-14}}{K_{a}}$

= $\frac{1 \times 10^{-14}}{3.9 \times 10^{-6}}}$

= $2.6 \times 10^{-9}$

Also, $K_{b} = \frac{[HP^{-}][OH^{-}]}{P^{2-}}$

Let us take $[OH^{-}] = [HP^{-}]$ = x

So, $K_{b} = \frac{[HP^{-}][OH^{-}]}{P^{2-}}$

$2.6 \times 10^{-9} = \frac{x \times x}{0.042}$

x = $1.04 \times 10^{-5}$

$[OH^{-}] = [HP^{-}]$ = $1.04 \times 10^{-5}$

pOH = - log $[OH^{-}]$

= - log ( $1.04 \times 10^{-5}$ )

= 4.99

As it is known that pH + pOH = 14

so, pH + 4.99 = 14

pH = 9.01

Thus, we can conclude that pH of the solution is 9.01.

When 1.57 mol o2 reacts with h2 to form h2o, how many moles of h2 are consumed in the process?

natita [175]

Here we have to get the moles of hydrogen (H₂) consumed to form water (H₂O) from 1.57 moles of oxygen (O₂)

In this process 3.14 moles of H₂ will be consumed.

The balanced reaction between oxygen (O₂) and hydrogen (H₂); both of which are in gaseous state to form water, which is liquid in nature can be written as-

2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) = 2H₂O (l).

Thus form the equation we can see that 1 mole of oxygen reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen to form 2 moles of water.

So, 1.57 moles of oxygen will consume (1.57×2) = 3.14 moles of hydrogen to form water.

A hypothetical AX type of ceramic material is known to have a density of 3.55 g/cm3 and a unit cell of cubic symmetry with a cel

postnew [5]

Explanation:

For AX type ceramic material, the number of formula per unit cells is as follows.

$\rho = \frac{n'(A_{c} + A_{A})}{V_{C}N_{A}}$

or, $n' = \frac{\rho a^{3}N_{A}}{(A_{c} + A_{A})}$

where, n' = no. of formula units per cell

$A_{c}$ = molecular weight of cation = 90.5 g/mol

$A_{a}$ = molecular weight of anion = 37.3 g/mol

$V_{c}$ = volume of cubic cell = 3.55 $g/cm^{3}$

a = edge length of unit cell = $3.9 \times 10^{-8} cm$

$N_{A}$ = Avogadro's number = $6.023 \times 10^{23}$

$\rho$ = density = 3.55 $g/cm^{3}$

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$n' = \frac{\rho a^{3}N_{A}}{(A_{c} + A_{A})}$

= $\frac{3.55 g/cm^{3} \times (3.9 \times 10^{-8})^{3} \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}}{(90.5 + 37.3)}$

= 0.9

= 1 (approx)

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options crystal structure of cesium chloride is possible for this material.

identify the element in period 3 that requires the least amount of energy to remove the most loosely held electrons from a mole

OLga [1]

Answer:

The element is Na

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the energy needed to release the last electron from an atom in its ground state to the gaseous state. It is a periodic property that increases as we go through the periods of the periodic table, but decreases if we move in groups. Sodium has thr ionic radius (another periodic property) that is too large, making it easier to release the electron away, since it is too far from the nucleus.
