You must add 7.5 pt of the 30 % sugar to the 5 % sugar to get a 20 % solution.

You can use a modified dilution formula to calculate the volume of 30 % sugar.

V_1×C_1 + V_2×C_2 = V_3×C_3

Let the volume of 30 % sugar = x pt. Then the volume of the final 20 % sugar = (5 + x ) pt

(x pt×30 % sugar) + (5 pt×5 % sugar) = (x + 5) pt × 20 % sugar

30x + 25 = 20x + 100

10x = 75

x = 75/10 = 7.5

Which will not appear in the equilibrium constant expression for the reaction below?

n200080 [17]

Answer:

[C] carbon solid

Explanation:

Pure solids and liquids are never included in the equilibrium constant expression because they do not affect the reactant amount at equilibrium in the reaction, thus since your equation has [C] as solid it will not be part of the equlibrium equation.

Coal gasification is a multistep process to convert coal into cleaner-burning fuels. In one step, a coal sample reacts with supe

ddd [48]

Answer :

The enthalpy of reaction is, -187.6 kJ/mol

The total heat will be, -2251 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

(a) The formation of $CH_4$ will be,

$2C(coal)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+CO_2(g)$ $\Delta H_{rxn}=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) $C(coal)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+H_2(g)$ $\Delta H_1=29.7kJ$

(2) $CO(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2(g)$ $\Delta H_2=-41kJ$

(3) $CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)$ $\Delta H_3=-206kJ$

We are multiplying equation 1 by 2 and then adding all the equations, we get :

(b) The expression for enthalpy of reaction will be,

$\Delta H_{rxn}=2\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3$

$\Delta H_{rxn}=(2\times 29.7)+(-41)+(-206)$

$\Delta H_{rxn}=-187.6kJ/mol$

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction is, -187.6 kJ/mol

(c) Now we have to calculate the total heat.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

or,

$q=\Delta H\times n$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = -187.6 kJ/mol

q = heat = ?

n = number of moles of coal = $\frac{1.00\times 1000g}{12.00g/mol}=83.33mol$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=(-187.6kJ/mol)\times (83.33mol)=-2.251kJ$

Thus, the total heat will be, -2251 kJ

NO2 can react with the NO in smog, forming a bond between the N atoms. Draw the structure of the resulting compound, including f

ELEN [110]

First, let's write down the balanced chemical reaction between the given reactants:

NO₂ + NO → N₂O + O₂

The Lewis structure of the main product is shown in the attached picture. To determine the formal charge of each element, the formula is as follows:

Formal Charge = Valence electrons - Non-bonding valence electrons - (Bonding electrons/2)

For the leftmost N:
Formal charge = 5 - 2 - 6/2 = 0
For the middle N:
Formal charge = 5 - 0 - 8/2 = 1
For O:
Formal charge = 6 - 6 - 2/2 = -1
