Calculate the number of moles of Cl2 produced at equilibrium when 3.98 mol of PCl5 is heated at 283.9 deg celsius in a vessel having a capacity of 10.0L. At 283.9, K = 0.060 for this dissociation.

1.274 moles

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction can be represented as follows:

                                  ⇄           +        

K = 0.060

K =

Concentration of    =

Concentration of    =

Concentration of    = 0.398 moles

If we construct an ICE table for the above equation; we have:

                                  ⇄           +        

Initial                0.398                          0                          0

Change            - x                               + x                        + x

Equilibrium    (0.398 - x)                      x                          x

K =

K =

K =

0.060 =

0.06(0.398-x) = x²

0.02388 - 0.060x = x²

x² + 0.060x - 0.02388 = 0               (quadratic equation)

a = 1;       b= 0.06;      c= -0.02388

Using quadratic formula;

=  

=

=

=

=

=   or

=  or

= 0.1274 or -0.1874

We go by the positive value which says:

[x] = 0.1274 M

number of moles = 0.1274 × 10.0

= 1.274 moles

∴ the number of moles  of Cl₂ produced at equilibrium = 1.274 moles

stupid i wont let you get a chance

explanation:

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
