Consider the following energy diagram (not to scale) for the reaction. 2CH3(g)C2H6(g) (a) What is the activation energy of the forward reaction? (b) At what point would 2CH3 (g) appear? (c) What is H for the reaction? (d) What is the activation energy of the reverse reaction? (e) At what point would C2H6 certainly be found? (f) What is any species at point C called?
What are homogeneous equilibria? Heterogeneous equilibria? What is the difference in writing K expressions for homogeneous versus heterogeneous reactions? Summarize which species are included in the K expression and which species are not included.
a. Using the free energy profile for a simple one-step reaction, show that at equilibrium K = kf/kr, where kf and kr, are the rate constants for the forward and reverse reactions. Hint: Use the relationship G = RT ln(K) and represent kf and kr, using the Arrhenius equation.(K=AeEa/RT) b. Why is the following statement false? A catalyst can increase the rate of a forward reaction but not the rote of the reverse reaction.
In Chapter 3, we discussed the conversion of biomass into biofuels. One important area of research associated with biofuels is the identification and development of suitable catalysts to increase the rate at which fuels can be produced. Do a web search to find an article describing biofuel catalysts. Then, write one or two sentences describing the reactions being catalyzed, and identify the catalyst as homogeneous or heterogeneous.
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?
Because carbonic acid undergoes a second ionization, the student in Exercise 12.39 is concerned that the hydrogen ion concentration she calculated is not correct. She looks up the equilibrium constant for the reaction HCO,-(aq) «=* H+(aq) + COf'(aq) Upon finding that the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 4.8 X 10“H, she decides that her answer in Exercise 12.39 is correct. Explain her reasoning. A student is simulating the carbonic acid—hydrogen carbonate equilibrium in a lake: H,CO,(aq) 5=6 H+(aq) + HCO,'(aq) K = 4.4 X 10'7She starts with 0.1000 A1 carbonic acid. W hat are the concentrations of all species at equilibrium?
