Fills a 500.mL flask with 3.6atm of carbon monoxide gas and 1.2atm of water vapor. When the mixture has come to equilibrium she determines that it contains 3.36atm of carbon monoxide gas, 0.96atm of water vapor and 0.24atm of hydrogen gas. The engineer then adds another 1.8atm of carbon monoxide, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the pressure of carbon dioxide after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

The answer to the question is

The pressure of carbon dioxide after equilibrium is reached the second time is 0.27 atm rounded to 2 significant digits

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the mole ratio of the constituent is proportional to their partial pressure

At the first trial the mixture contains

3.6 atm CO

1.2 atm H₂O (g)

Total pressure = 3.6+1.2= 4.8 atm

which gives

3.36 atm CO

0.96 atm H₂O (g)

0.24 atm H₂ (g)

That is

CO+H₂O→CO(g)+H₂ (g)

therefore the mixture contained

0.24 atm CO₂ and the total pressure =

3.36+0.96+0.24+0.24 = 4.8 atm

when an extra 1.8 atm of CO is added we get Increase in the mole fraction of CO we have one mole of CO produces one mole of H₂

At equilibrium we have 0.24*0.24/(3.36*0.96) = 0.017857

adding 1.8 atm CO gives 4.46 atm hence we have

 (0.24+x)(0.24+x)/(4.46-x)(0.96-x) = 0.017857

which gives x = 0.031 atm or x = -0.6183 atm

Dealing with only the positive values we have the pressure of carbon dioxide = 0.24+0.03 = 0.27 atm

water   molecules stay close to each other through cohesion, the collective action of hydrogen bonds between water molecules. cohesion plants draw water upwards from the root through the stem's transport tubes (xylem) to the leaf. this transport occurs even in large trees and against gravity. transpiration, evaporation of water from plant leaves, creates a tension on water molecules being pulled up from the stem and roots.

water also has high (the attraction of one substance to another) properties because of its polar nature. adhesion of water molecules to plant cell walls counteract gravity while water is transported from roots to leaves.

water exhibits a very high surface tension when compared to other liquids. surface tension is a property of a liquid that holds the surface together and allows it to resist an external force. by capillary action, the water forms concave menisci inside the pores. the high surface tension of water pulls the concavity outwards, generating enough force to lift water from the roots to the leaves of plants.

thus, cohesion, along with adhesion and surface tension creates a capillary action that keeps water molecules interacting and moving through the plants out to the leaf cells.

therefore, option d) is the correct answer.

explanation:

i think it is d. e because the next one is igneous.
