Awọn alaye Idahun

The expression for the equilibrium constant for the general equation XP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS is: Kc = [R]m[S]n / [P]x[Q]y where Kc is the equilibrium constant, [R] and [S] are the concentrations of the products, and [P] and [Q] are the concentrations of the reactants, all raised to the stoichiometric coefficients (m, n, x, y) in the balanced equation. This equation is known as the equilibrium constant expression and it represents the ratio of the concentrations of the products and reactants at equilibrium for a particular chemical reaction. The equilibrium constant is a measure of how far a reaction proceeds towards completion, with a larger value indicating a greater extent of reaction. The equilibrium constant expression is derived from the law of mass action, which states that the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. At equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, and the equilibrium constant expression represents the ratio of the rate constants for these two reactions. Therefore, the correct expression for the equilibrium constant for the general equation XP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS is Kc = [R]m[S]n / [P]x[Q]y.

Awọn alaye Idahun

To solve this problem, we need to use the concept of stoichiometry and the solubility product constant (Ksp) of calcium hydrogen trioxocarbonate (IV). First, we need to write the balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when the solution of calcium hydrogen trioxocarbonate (IV) is heated: Ca(HCO3)2(s) → CaCO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g) From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of calcium hydrogen trioxocarbonate (IV) produces 1 mole of calcium carbonate. Therefore, we need to determine the number of moles of calcium hydrogen trioxocarbonate (IV) in the solution: Number of moles = concentration x volume Number of moles = 0.50 mol/dm³ x 0.2 dm³ Number of moles = 0.1 mol Since 1 mole of calcium hydrogen trioxocarbonate (IV) produces 1 mole of calcium carbonate, the number of moles of calcium carbonate produced will also be 0.1 mol. Next, we need to use the solubility product constant (Ksp) of calcium carbonate to determine the maximum amount of solid that can be precipitated: Ksp = [Ca²⁺][CO3²⁻] Ksp = 3.3 x 10⁻⁹ (at 25°C) At the maximum amount of solid precipitated, all the calcium carbonate formed will have precipitated, and the concentration of calcium ions and carbonate ions will be equal. Therefore, we can assume that the concentration of calcium ions and carbonate ions is both x. Substituting into the Ksp expression: Ksp = x² 3.3 x 10⁻⁹ = x² x = 5.74 x 10⁻⁵ mol/dm³ The mass of calcium carbonate precipitated can now be calculated: Mass = number of moles x molar mass Mass = 0.1 mol x 100.1 g/mol Mass = 10.01 g Therefore, the maximum weight of solid precipitated is approximately 10 g. Note that this calculation assumes that all the calcium carbonate precipitated as a solid, which may not always be the case in a real-world experiment. Additionally, this calculation does not take into account any losses due to filtration or other experimental errors.
