A land-based vehicle will be an important part of any future exploration of the planetMars. One proposed design for a Mars rover uses a methane gas fuel cell as itspower supply. The methane fuel can be made on Mars using a chemical reaction thathas been known for over 100 years the Sabatier methanation reaction:CO₂ (g) + 4H₂ (g) CH4 (g) + 2H₂O (g) AH = -165 kJ at 250°CPredict and explain, according to Le Chatelier's principle, THREE unique conditionsrequired in a closed Sabatier reactor to produce the maximum amount of methane.

Two gases l'and I are found in the atmosphere in only trace amounts because they decompose quickly. When exposed to ultraviolet light the half-life of 'is 90. min, while that of Y' is 1.00 h. Suppose an atmospheric scientist studying these decompositions fills a transparent 20.0 L flask with X and Y and exposes the flask to UV light. Initially, the partial pressure of X' is 75.0 % greater than the partial pressure of Y. As both gases decompose, will the partial pressure of X' ever fall below the partial pressure of Y? Oyes 0.9 O no ? If you said yes, calculate the time it takes the partial pressure of X to fall below the partial pressure of Y. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. min X G

X 22. Which of the following 0/1 statements are correct? * An increase in temperature makes particles move slower, therefore slowing down a reaction An increase in concentration means there are less particles, which will make the reaction go faster Using smaller pieces of reactants will X increase the surface area making a reaction go slower If there is no catalyst added, the activation energy will be higher meaning the reaction will be slower
(#28) Reaction Rates and time. A decomposition reaction in the first order has a rate constant of 1.26 x 10-4/sec.

Fallout from nuclear weapons tests in the atmosphere is mainly 90Sr and 137Cs , which have 28.6- and 32.2-y half-lives, respectively. Atmospheric tests were terminated in most countries in 1963, although China only did so in 1980. It has been found that environmental activities of these two isotopes are decreasing faster than their half-lives. Why might this be?
