Carbonyl fluoride, COF2, is an important intermediate used in the production of fluorine-containing compounds. For instance, it is used to make the refrigerant carbon tetrafluoride, CF4 via the reaction 2COF2(g)⇌CO2(g)+CF4(g), Kc=6.30 If only COF2 is present initially at a concentration of 2.00 M, what concentration of COF2 remains at equilibrium?

The equilibrium concentration of is 0.332 M

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial concentration of = 2.00 M

The given chemical equation follows:

Initial:          2.00

At eqllm:     2.00-2x          x      x

The expression of for above equation follows:

We are given:

Putting values in above expression, we get:

Neglecting the value of x = 1.25 because equilibrium concentration of the reactant will becomes negative, which is not possible

So, equilibrium concentration of

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of is 0.332 M

chemical energy is stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules. it can only be seen when it is released in a chemical reaction. when chemical energy is released, the substance from which the energy came is often changed into an entirely different substance.

this chemical reaction releases energy in the form of light and heat. chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the arrangement of atoms within molecules. breaking chemical bonds requires energy, while forming new chemical bonds releases energy.

the atp molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. in this form,energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.
