Suppose that 8.00 mol of both O₂ and N₂O gases are introduced into a 4.00 L closed flask. When the system comes to equilibrium, 3.00 mol of nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas has formed, shown below. Determine the equilibrium concentrations of all entities in the flask. 2 N₂O(g) + O₂ (g) = 4 NO (g)

In a solution with carbon tetrachloride as the solvent, the compound VCl4. undergoes dimerization: 2VCl4V2Cl8 When 6.6834 g VCl4. is dissolved in 100.0 g carbon tetrachloride, the freezing point is lowered by 5.97C.

Simple acids such as formic acid, HCOOH, and acetic acid, CH3COOH, are very soluble in water; however, fatty acids such as stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16COOH, and palmitic acid, CH3(CH2)14COOH, are water-insoluble. Based on what you know about the solubility of alcohols, explain the solubility of these organic acids.
A 4.72-g sample of methanol (CH3OH) was placed in an otherwise empty 1.00-L flask and heated to 250.C to vaporize the methanol. Over time, the methanol vapor decomposed by the following reaction: CH3OH(g)CO(g)+2H2(g) After the system has reached equilibrium, a tiny hole is drilled in the side of the flask allowing gaseous compounds to effuse out of the flask. Measurements of the effusing gas show that it contains 33.0 times as much H2(g) as CH3OH(g). Calculate K for this reaction at 250.C.
