- 5.11. Determine the numerical value of Q for the reaction conditions indicated.arrow_forwardReword the statement in Question 109 so that it is always true. Criticize this statement: Provided it occurs at an appreciable rate, any chemical reaction for which rG 0 will proceed until all reactants have been converted toproducts.arrow_forwardWhy are compounds such as sodium chloride usually not given Ksp values?arrow_forward
- When a mixture of hydrogen and bromine is maintained at normal atmospheric pressure and heated above 200. °C in a closed container, the hydrogen and bromine react to form hydrogen bromide and a gas-phase equilibrium is established. Write a balanced chemical equation for the equilibrium reaction. Use bond enthalpies from Table 6.2 ( Sec. 6-6b) to estimate the enthalpy change for the reaction. Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), which is more important in determining the position of this equilibrium, the entropy effect or the energy effect? In which direction will the equilibrium shift as the temperature increases above 200. °C? Explain. Suppose that the pressure were increased to triple its initial value. In which direction would the equilibrium shift? Why is the equilibrium not established at room temperature?arrow_forwardThe equilibrium constant for a certain reaction increases by a factor of 6.67 when the temperature is increased from 300.0 K to 350.0 K. Calculate the standard change in enthalpy (H) for this reaction (assuming H is temperature-independent).arrow_forwardActually, the carbon in CO2(g) is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the carbon in calcium carbonate(limestone). Verify this by determining the standardGibbs free energy change for the reaction of lime,CaO(s), with CO2(g) to make CaCO3(s).arrow_forward
- 5.46. For a reaction whose standard enthalpy change is , what temperature is needed to double the equilibrium constant from its value at ? What temperature is needed to increase the equilibrium constant by a factor of ? What if the standard enthalpy change were ?arrow_forwardIndicate whether each statement below is true or false. If a statement is false, rewrite it to produce a closely related statement that is true. For a given reaction, the magnitude of the equilibrium constant is independent of temperature. If there is an increase in entropy and a decrease in enthalpy when reactants in their standard states are converted to products in their standard states, the equilibrium constant for the reaction must be negative. The equilibrium constant for the reverse of a reaction is the reciprocal of the equilibrium constant for the reaction itself. For the reaction H2O2(ℓ) ⇌ H2O(ℓ) + O2(g) the equilibrium constant is one half the magnitude of the equilibrium constant for the reaction 2H2O2(ℓ) ⇌ 2H2O(ℓ) + O2(g)arrow_forwardWhen 7.11 g NH4NO3 is added to 100 mL water, the temperature of the calorimeter contents decreases from 22.1 C to 17.1 C. Assuming that the mixture has the same specific heat as water and a mass of 107 g, calculate the heat q. Is the dissolution of ammonium nitrate exothermic or endothermic?arrow_forward
- Silver carbonate, Ag2CO3, is a light yellow compound that decomposes when heated to give silver oxide and carbon dioxide: Ag2CO3(s)Ag2O(s)+CO2(g) A researcher measured the partial pressure of carbon dioxide over a sample of silver carbonate at 220C and found that it was 1.37 atm. Calculate the partial pressure of carbon dioxide at 25C. The standard enthalpies of formation of silver carbonate and silver oxide at 25C are 505.9 kJ/mol and 31.05 kJ/mol, respectively. Make any reasonable assumptions in your calculations. State the assumptions that you make, and note why you think they are reasonable.arrow_forwardConsider a metal ion A2+ and its nitrate salt, In an experiment, 35.00 mL of a 0.217 M solution of A(NO3)2 is made to react with 25.00 mL of 0.195 M NaOH. A precipitate, A(OH)2, forms. Along with the precipitation, the temperature increases from 24.8C to 28.2C. What is H for the precipitation of A(OH)2? The following assumptions can be made. • The density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL. • Volumes are additive. • The specific heat of the solution is 4.18 J/g C.arrow_forwardFor the system 2SO3(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g) K=1.32 at 627.
