According to the conversation of mass, mass cannot be created or destroyed. This means whatever is done to one side, must be done to the other.

There are 4 Phosphorus atoms on the left, there must be 4 on the right. To do this, you must multiply the P2O3 by 2 to get 4 Phosphorus atoms and 6 Oxygen atoms. Now to balance the Oxygen atoms, you must multiply the oxygen atoms on the left by 3.

1 P4 + 3 O2 —-> 2 P2O3

Lastly, this equation type is synthesis (combination) because two reactants are becoming a single product.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

There is 0.0677 grams of H2 gas obtained

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The total pressure (988 mmHg) is the sum of the pressure of the collected hydrogen + the vapor pressure of water (17.54 mmHg).  

ptotal = p(H2)+ p(H2O)

p(H2) = ptotal - pH2O = 988 mmHg - 17.54 mmHg = 970.46 mmHg

Step 2: Calculate moles of H2 gas

Use the ideal gas law to calculate the moles of H2 gas

PV = nRT

n = PV / RT

 ⇒ with p = pressure of H2 in atm = 970.46 mmHg * (1 atm /760 mmHg) = 1.277 atm

⇒ V = volume of H2 in L = 641 mL x (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.641 L

⇒ n = the number of moles of H2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature = 20.0 °C = 293.15 Kelvin

n = (1.277)(0.641) / (0.08206)(298.15) = 0.0335 moles H2

Step 3: Calculate mass of H2

Mass of H2 = moles H2 ¨molar H2

0.0335 moles H2 * 2.02 g/mol H2  = 0.0677g H2

There is 0.0677 grams of H2 gas obtained

At 800 K, the equilibrium constant, Kp, for the following reaction is 3.2 × 10–7. 2 H2S(g) ⇌ 2 H2(g) + S2(g) A reaction vessel a
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

0.008945 atm

Explanation:

In the reaction:

2H2S(g) ⇌ 2 H2(g) + S2(g)

Kp is defined as:

Kp = P_{H_{2}}^2P_{S_{2}} / P_{H_{2}S}^2

<em>Where P is the pressure of each compound in equilibrium.</em>

If initial pressure of H2S is 3.00atm, concentrations in equilibrium are:

H2S = 3.00 atm - 2X

H2 = 2X

S2: = X

Replacing:

3.2x10^{-7} = (2X)^2X / (3-2X)^2

3.2x10^{-7} = 4X^3 / 9- 6X+4X^2

0 = 4X³ - 1.28x10⁻⁶X² + 1.92x10⁻⁶X - 2.88x10⁻⁶

Solving for X:

X = 0.008945 atm

As in equilibrium, pressure of S2 is X, <em>pressure is 0.008945 atm</em>

A sample contains 2.2 g of the radioisotope niobium-91 and 15.4 g of its daughter isotope, zirconium-91. how many half-lives hav
dybincka [34]

Answer: 3

Explanation: This is a radioactive decay and all the radioactive process follows first order kinetics.

Equation for the reaction of decay of _{19}^{40}\textrm{K} radioisotope follows:

Moles of zirconium=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{15.4}{91}=0.17moles  

Moles of niobium=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{2.2}{91}=0.024moles  

_{41}^{91}\textrm{Nb}\rightarrow _{40}^{91}\textrm{Zr}+_{+1}^0e

By the stoichiometry of above reaction,

1 mole of _{40}^{91}\textrm{Zr} is produced by 1 mole _{41}^{91}\textrm{Nb}

So, 0.17 moles of _{40}^{91}\textrm{Zr} will be produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.17=0.17\text{ moles of }_{40}^{91}\textrm{Nb}

Amount of _{82}^{212}\textrm{K}

decomposed will be = 0.17 moles

Initial amount of _{40}^{91}\textrm{Nb}  will be = Amount decomposed + Amount left = (0.17 + 0.024)moles =0.194 moles

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = 0.024

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant = 0.194

n = number of half lives= ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.024=\frac{0.194}{2^n}

n=3

Therefore, 3 half lives have passed.

Which of the following is correctly balanced redox half reaction? Group of answer choices A. 14H+ + 9e- + Cr2O72- ⟶ Cr3+ + 7H2O
oee [108]

Answer:

The correct option is: B. 14 H⁺ + 6 e⁻ + Cr₂O₇²⁻ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺ + 7 H₂O

Explanation:

Redox reactions is an reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously due to the simultaneous movement of electrons from one chemical species to another.

The reduction of a chemical species is represented in a reduction half- reaction and the oxidation of a chemical species is represented in a oxidation half- reaction.

<u>To balance the reduction half-reaction for the reduction of Cr₂O₇²⁻ to Cr³⁺</u>:

Cr₂O₇²⁻ ⟶ Cr³⁺

First the <u>number of Cr atoms</u> on the reactant and product side is balanced

Cr₂O₇²⁻ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺

Now, Cr is preset in +6 oxidation state in Cr₂O₇²⁻ and +3 oxidation state in Cr³⁺. So each Cr gains 3 electrons to get reduced.

Therefore, <u>6 electrons are gained</u> by 2 Cr atoms of Cr₂O₇²⁻ to get reduced.

Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 6 e⁻ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺

Now the total charge on the reactant side is (-8) and the total charge on the product side is (+6).

From the given options it is evident that the reaction must be balanced in acidic conditions.

Therefore, to <u>balance the total charge</u> on the reactant and product side,<u> 14 H⁺ is added on the reactant side.</u>

Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 6 e⁻ + 14 H⁺ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺

Now to <u>balance the number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, 7 H₂O is added on the product side.</u>

Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 6 e⁻ + 14 H⁺ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺ + 7 H₂O

<u>Therefore, the correct balanced reduction half-reaction is:</u>

Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 6 e⁻ + 14 H⁺ ⟶ 2 Cr³⁺ + 7 H₂O
