A chemist mixes together 0.450 mol N2 with 0.450 mol H2 in a sealed container. The mixture is heated and allowed to reach equilibrium. At equilibrium, the mixture contains 0.400 mol N2 and the total pressure is 500 kPa. Calculate Kp.

balanced equation: N_{2 (g)} + 3H_{2 (g)}<---> 2NH_{3 (g)} Both reactants and products are gases, therefore it affect Kp value. This equation reaches equi...

Explain the trend in the boiling temperatures of the elements on descending group 7, from fluorine to iodine.

Understanding the question:

The process of boiling is heating the mixture until the liquid turns into gas. This process requires breaking intermolecular forces (interactions between molecule...

Flask Q (volume = 1.00 x 103 cm3 ) is filled with ammonia (NH3) at 102 kPa and 300 K. Calculate the mass of ammonia in flask Q. (Gas constant R = 8.31 J K−1 mol−1 )

n = PV/RT 102 000 ×(1.00 × 10−3) / 8.31 × 300 = 𝑛 n= (4.091456077x10-2) Mass = n x 17 = 0.696g (3 sig figs only)

Explain how the electron pair repulsion theory can be used to deduce the shape of, and the bond angle in, PF3 .

Number of electrons from P= 5 e , Number of electrons from 3F = 3 e , Total number of electrons around P = 8 e Therefore there is a total number of 4 electron pairs surrounding P. three of which are bond ...
