the balanced chemical equation for decomposition of HgO is as follows

2HgO --> 2Hg + O₂

stoichiometry of HgO to O₂ is 2:1

number of HgO moles heated are - 3.00 g / 216.59 g/mol = 0.0139 mol

according to stoichiometry of reaction -

number of O₂ moles formed = 0.0139 mol/ 2 = 0.00695 mol

mass of O₂ to be formed - 0.00695 mol x 32.00 g/mol = 0.2224 g

but the actual yield = 0.195 g

percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100 %

percent yield = 0.195 g / 0.2224 g x 100 % = 87.7 %

answer is 87.7 %

Which of the compounds above are strong enough acids to react almost completely with a hydroxide ion (pka of h2o = 15.74) or wit
luda_lava [24]

The compounds can react with OH⁻ and HCO₃⁻ only C₅H₆N pyridinium

<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>

In an acid-base reaction, it can be determined whether or not a reaction occurs by knowing the value of pKa or Ka from acid and conjugate acid (acid from the reaction)

Acids and bases according to Bronsted-Lowry

Acid = donor (donor) proton (H + ion)

Base = proton (receiver) acceptor (H + ion)

If the acid gives (H +), then the remaining acid is a conjugate base because it accepts protons. Conversely, if a base receives (H +), then the base formed can release protons and is called the conjugate acid from the original base.

From this, it can be seen whether the acid in the product can give its proton to a base (or acid which has a lower Ka value) so that the reaction can go to the right to produce the product.

The step that needs to be done is to know the pKa value of the two acids (one on the left side and one on the right side of the arrow), then just determine the value of the equilibrium constant

Can be formulated:

K acid-base reaction = Ka acid on the left : K acid on the right.

or:

pK = acid pKa on the left - pKa acid on the right

K = equilibrium constant for acid-base reactions

pK = -log K;

K~=~10^{-pK}

K value> 1 indicates the reaction can take place, or the position of equilibrium to the right.

There is some data that we need to complete from the problem above, which is the pKa value of some compounds that will react, namely:

pyridinium pKa = 5.25

acetone pKa = 19.3

butan-2-one pKa = 19

Let's look at the K value of each possible reaction:

pka H₂O = 15.74, pka of H₂CO₃ = 6.37)

  • 1. C₅H₆N pyridinium

* with OH⁻

C₅H₆N + OH- ---> C₅H₅N- + H₂O

pK = pKa pyridinium - pKa H₂O

pK = 5.25 - 15.74

pK = -10.49

K~=~10^{4.9}

K values> 1 indicate the reaction can take place

* with HCO3⁻

C₅H₆N + HCO₃⁻-- ---> C₅H₅N⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 5.25 - 6.37

pK = -1.12

K`=~10^{1.12]

Reaction can take place

  • 2. Acetone C₃H₆O

* with OH-

C₃H₆O + OH⁻ ---> C₃H₅O- + H₂O

pK = 19.3 - 15.74

pK = 3.56

K~=~10^{ -3.56}

Reaction does not happen

* with HCO₃-

C₃H₆O + HCO₃⁻ ----> C₃H₅O⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 19.3 - 6.37

pK = 12.93

K`=~10 ^{-12.93}

Reaction does not happen

  • 3. butan-2-one C₄H₇O

* with OH-

C₄H₇O + OH- ---> C₄H₆O- + H₂O

pK = 19 - 15.74

pK = 3.26

K~=~10^{-3.26}

Reaction does not happen

* with HCO₃⁻

C₄H₇O + HCO₃⁻ ---> C₄H₆O⁻ + H₂CO₃

pK = 19 - 6.37

pK = 12.63

K~=~ 10^{-12.63}

Reaction does not happen

So that can react with OH⁻ and HCO₃⁻ only C₅H₆N pyridinium

The final overall chemical equation is Upper Ca upper O (s) plus upper C upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow upper C a upper C u
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

the enthalpy of the second intermediate equation is halved and has its sign changed.

Explanation:

Let us take a look at the first and second intermediate reactions as well as the overall reaction equation for the process under review;

First reaction;

Ca (s) + CO₂ (g) + ½O₂ (g) → CaCO₃ (s) ΔH₁ = -812.8 kJ

Second reaction;

2Ca (s) + O₂ (g) → 2CaO (s) ΔH₂ = -1269 kJ

Hence the overall equation is now;

CaO (s) + CO₂ (g) → CaCO₃ (s) ΔH = ?

According to the Hess law of constant heat summation, the enthalpy of the overall reaction is supposed to be obtained as a sum of the enthalpy of both reactions but this will not give the enthalpy of the overall reaction in this case. The enthalpy of the overall reaction is rather obtained by halving the enthalpy of the second intermediate reaction and reversing its sign before taking the sum as shown below;

Enthalpy of Intermediate reaction 1 + ½(- Enthalpy of Intermediate reaction 2) = Enthalpy of Overall reaction

COCl2(g) decomposes according to the equation above. When pure COCl2(g) is injected into a rigid, previously evacuated flask at
mestny [16]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_p for the reaction at 690 K is 0.05

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial pressure of COCl_2 = 1.0 atm

Total pressure at equilibrium = 1.2 atm

The chemical equation for the decomposition of phosgene follows:

                  COCl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Cl_2(g)

Initial:            1                    -         -

At eqllm:       1-x                 x        x

We are given:

Total pressure at equilibrium = [(1 - x) + x+ x]

So, the equation becomes:

[(1 - x) + x+ x]=1.2\\\\x=0.2atm

The expression for K_p for above equation follows:

K_p=\frac{p_{CO}\times p_{Cl_2}}{p_{COCl_2}}

p_{CO}=0.2atm\\p_{Cl_2}=0.2atm\\p_{COCl_2}=(1-0.2)=0.8atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{0.2\times 0.2}{0.8}\\\\K_p=0.05

Hence, the value of K_p for the reaction at 690 K is 0.05
