Chapter 17: Q17.43P (page 777)

Gaseous decomposes according to the reaction

PCI5(g)□PCI3(g)+CI2(g)

In one experiment, 0.15 mol of PCI5(g)was introduced into a 2.0-L container.

Construct the reaction table for this process.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The construction of the reaction table is as follows


Step by step solution

01

Step 1: what is reaction table

The reaction table is a spreadsheet format that contains all numerical and algebraic data relevant to the problem and allows for developing a consistent set of analytical and computational procedures inside a single calculational framework. We can use the approach to detect common ideas, evaluate issues, arrange computations, make logical conclusions, identify distracters, validate results, and move forward with confidence and precision to a solution.

02

Construction of reaction table

Rewrite the reaction as follows:

PCI5(g)□PCI3(g)+CI2(g)

The number of moles of is 0.15 mol, and the volume of the flask is 2.0 L.

PCI5=0.152

The construction of the reaction table is as follows

When ammonia is made industrially, the mixture of N2, H2 andNH3 that emerges from the reaction chamber is far from equilibrium. Why does the plant supervisor use reaction conditions that produce less than the maximum yield of ammonia?

Question:For the following equilibrium system, which of the changes will form more CaCO3?

CO2(g)+Ca(OH)2(s)→CaCO3(s)+H2O(l)∆Ho=-113kJ

(a) Decrease temperature at constant pressure (no phase change)

(b) Increase volume at constant temperature

(c) Increase partial pressure of CO2

(d) Remove one-half of the initial CaCO3

Predict the effect of decreasing the container volume on the amounts of each reactant and product in the following reactions:

(a) C3H8(g)+502(g)⇌3CO2(g)+4H2O(I)

(b) 4NH3(g)+3O2(g)⇌2N2(g)+6H2O(g)

Consider the following reaction:

3Fe(s)+4H2O(g)⇌Fe3O4(s)+4H2(g)

(a) What is the apparent oxidation state ofFe in Fe3O4 ?

(b) Actually, Fe has two oxidation states in Fe3O4. What are they?

(c) At 900°C,Kcfor the reaction is 5.1. If 0.050molofH2O(g) and 0.100mol ofFe(s) are placed in a1.0−L container at900°C , how many grams of Fe3O4 are present at equilibrium?

Note: The synthesis of ammonia is a major process throughout the industrialized world. Problems 17.99 to 17.105 refer to various aspects of this all-important reaction:

N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g)   ΔHrxn°=−91.8kJ

Predict the effect of increasing the container volume on the amounts of each reactant and product in the following reactions:

(a) F2(g)⇌2F(g)

(b) 2CH4(g)⇌C2H2(g)+3H2(g)
