Chapter 7, Problem 2P
7-12 Two kinds of gas molecules are reacted at a set temperature. The gases are blown into the reaction vessel from two tubes. In setup A, the two tubes are aligned parallel to each other; in setup B, they are 900 to each other; and in setup C, they are aligned directly opposite each other. Which setup would yield the most effective collisions?

- Is a system at equilibrium if the rate constants of the forward and reverse reactions are equal?arrow_forwardThe following series of diagrams represent the reaction XY followed over a period of time. The X molecules are red and the Y molecules are green. At the end of the time period depicted, has the reaction system reached equilibrium? Justify your answer with a one-sentence explanation.arrow_forwardWhen molecules collide, a certain minimum energy called the _________ is needed for the reaction to occur.arrow_forward
- Consider the reaction N2O4(g)2NO2(g). Draw a graph illustrating the changes of concentrations of N2O4 and NO2 as equilibrium is approached. Describe how the rates of the forward and reverse reactions change as the mixture approaches dynamic equilibrium. Why is this called a dynamic equilibrium?arrow_forwardSubstances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?arrow_forwardWhat would you expect to be the effect of an increase of pressure on each of the following reactions? Would the pressure change cause the reaction to go to the right or left? a CH4+2S2(g)CS2(g)+2H2S(g) b H2(g)+Br2(g)2HBr(g) c CO2(g)+C(s)2CO(g)arrow_forward
- . In general terms. what does the equilibrium constant for a reaction represent? What is the algebraic form of the equilibrium constant for a typical reaction? What do square brackets indicate when we write an equilibrium constant?arrow_forward. Explain what it means that a reaction has reached a state of chemical equilibrium. Explain why equilibrium is a dynamic state: Does a reaction really “stop” when the system reaches a state of equilibrium? Explain why, once a chemical system has reached equilibrium, the concentrations of all reactants remain constant with time. Why does this constancy of concentration not contradict our picture of equilibrium as being dynamic? What happens to the rates of the forward and reverse reactions as a system proceeds to equilibrium from a starting point where only reactants are present?arrow_forwardThe initial concentrations or pressures of reactants and products are given for each of the following systems. Calculate the reaction quotient and determine the direction in which each system will proceed to reach equilibrium. (a) 2NH3(g)N2(g)+3H2(g) Kc=17;[NH3]=0.50M,[N2]=0.15M,[H2]=0.12M (b) 2NH3(g)N2(g)+3H2(g) Kp=6.8104 initial pressures NH3=2.00atm,N2=10.00atm,H2=10.00atm (c) 2SO3(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g) Kc=0.230;[SO3]=2.00M,[SO2]=2.00M,[O2]=2.00M (d) 2SO3(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g) Kp=16.5 initial pressures SO2=1.00atm,O2=1.130atm,SO3=0atm (e) 2NO(g)+CI2(g)2NOCI(g) Kp=2.5103 ; initial pressures; NO=1.00atm,CI2=1.00atm,NOCI=0atm (f) N2(g)+O2(g)2NO(g) Kc=0.050 ; [N2]=1.00M,[O2]=0.200M,[NO]=1.00Marrow_forward
- An equilibrium involving the carbonate and bicarbonate ions exists in natural waters: HCO5_(aq) «=* H+(aq) + COf-(aq) Assuming that the reactions in both directions are elementary' processes: Write rate expressions for the forward and reverse reactions. Write an expression for the equilibrium constant based on the rates of the forward and reverse reactions.arrow_forwardBecause carbonic acid undergoes a second ionization, the student in Exercise 12.39 is concerned that the hydrogen ion concentration she calculated is not correct. She looks up the equilibrium constant for the reaction HCO,-(aq) «=* H+(aq) + COf'(aq) Upon finding that the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 4.8 X 10“H, she decides that her answer in Exercise 12.39 is correct. Explain her reasoning. A student is simulating the carbonic acid—hydrogen carbonate equilibrium in a lake: H,CO,(aq) 5=6 H+(aq) + HCO,'(aq) K = 4.4 X 10'7She starts with 0.1000 A1 carbonic acid.
