Isopropyl alcohol is the main ingredient in rubbing alcohol. It can decompose into acetone (the main ingredient in nail polish remover) and hydrogen gas according to the following reaction: C 3 H 7 OH ( g ) ⇌ C 2 H 6 CO ( g ) + H 2 ( g ) At 180°C, the equilibrium constant for the decomposition is 0.45. If 20.0 mL ( d = 0.785 g / mL ) of isopropyl alcohol is placed in a 5.00-L vessel and heated to 180°C, what percent- age remains undissociated at equilibrium?

Solution Summary: The author explains how the equilibrium constant is calculated by calculating the percentage of isopropyl alcohol that remains undissociated in the system at equilibrium.

The number of microstates corresponding to each macrostate is given by N. The dominant macrostate or configuration of a system is the macrostate with the greatest weight W. Are both statements correct?
For the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ
If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state.
In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy.
