1) Sulfuryl chloride, SO2Cl2, is a highly reactive gaseous compound. When heated, it decomposes as follows: SO2Cl2(g) ® SO2(g) + Cl2(g). This decomposition is endothermic. A sample of 3.509 grams of SO2Cl2 is placed in an evacuated 1.00 liter bulb and the temperature is raised to 375K.
(a) What would be the pressure in atmospheres in the bulb if no dissociation of the SO2Cl2(g) occurred?
(b) When the system has come to equilibrium at 375K, the total pressure in the bulb is found to be 1.43 atmospheres. Calculate the partial pressures of SO2, Cl2, and SO2Cl2 at equilibrium at 375K.
Note: Please answer both A and B

7. Sulfuryl chloride, SO2Cl2, is a highly reactive gaseous compound. When heated, it decomposes as follows:
SO2Cl2 (g) ⇌ SO2 (g) + Cl2 (g).
This decomposition is endothermic. A sample of 3.509 grams of SO2Cl2 is placed in an evacuated 1.00-L bulb and the temperature is raised to 375 K.
a. What would be the pressure (in atm) in the bulb if no dissociation of the SO2Cl2(g) occurred?
b. When the system has come to equilibrium at 375 K, the total pressure in the bulb is found to be 1.43 atm. Calculate the partial pressures of SO2, Cl2, and SO2Cl2 at equilibrium.
c. Give the expression for the equilibrium constant (either Kp or KC) for the decomposition of SO2Cl2(g) at 375 K. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant you have selected.

- Use the kinetic theory to justify the following observations: (a) the rate of a reaction in the gas phase depends on the energy with which two molecules collide, which in turn depends on their speeds; (b) in the Earth’s atmosphere, light gases, such as H2 and He, are rare but heavier gases, such as O2, CO2, and N2, are abundant.arrow_forwardAmoxicillin is an antibiotic packaged as a powder. When it is used to treat babies and small animals, the pharmacist or veterinarian must suspend it in water, so that it can be administered orally with a medicine dropper.
