Water gas is a 1:1 mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas and is called water gas because it is formed from steam and hot
carbon in the following reaction: H,0 (g) +C(s) =H,(g)+CO(g). Methanol, a liquid fuel that could possibly replace gasoline,
can be prepared from water gas and hydrogen at high temperature and pressure in the presence of a suitable catalyst. What will
happen to the concentrations of H,, CO, and CH,OH at equilibrium if more catalyst is added?
(A Depends on the catalyst
B Double
Nothing
D) Catalyst will be contaminated
5. For the reaction depicted below, which result will occur if the container
experiences a decrease in volume?*
CO(g) + NO,(g)= CO;(g) + NO(g)
O There will be no effect on the system.
O The reaction will shift to the left.
O The reaction will shift to the right.
The reaction will heat up.
O The reaction will cool down.
7.Study the following equation.
Fe(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → H22(g) + FeCl22(aq)
What happens to the iron metal when it is reacted in a closed container to produce hydrogen gas in this manner?
Select two that apply.
The rate of the forward reaction is at its maximum when the reaction first starts.
The rate of the reverse reaction decreases as pressure from the hydrogen gas accumulates.
Forward and reverse reactions will continue until both reach a rate of zero.
The rate of the reverse reaction increases as hydrogen gas accumulates.

- Silicon forms a series of compounds analogous to the al-kanes and having the general formula SinH2n+2. The first of these compounds is silane, SiH4, which is used in the electronics industry to produce thin ultrapure silicon films. SiH4(g) is somewhat difficult to work with because it is py-ropboric at room temperature—meaning that it bursts into flame spontaneously when exposed to air. (a) Write an equation for the combustion of SiH4(g). (The reaction is analogous to hydrocarbon combustion, and SiO2 is a solid under standard conditions. Assume the water produced will be a gas.) (b) Use the data from Appendix E to calculate ? for this reaction. (c) Calculate G and show that the reaction is spontaneous at 25°C. (d) Compare G for this reaction to the combustion of methane. (See the previous problem.) Are the reactions in these two exercises enthalpy or entropy driven? Explain.arrow_forwardWhen a mixture of hydrogen and bromine is maintained at normal atmospheric pressure and heated above 200. °C in a closed container, the hydrogen and bromine react to form hydrogen bromide and a gas-phase equilibrium is established. Write a balanced chemical equation for the equilibrium reaction. Use bond enthalpies from Table 6.2 ( Sec. 6-6b) to estimate the enthalpy change for the reaction. Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), which is more important in determining the position of this equilibrium, the entropy effect or the energy effect? In which direction will the equilibrium shift as the temperature increases above 200. °C? Explain. Suppose that the pressure were increased to triple its initial value. In which direction would the equilibrium shift? Why is the equilibrium not established at room temperature?arrow_forwardSubstances 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?arrow_forward
- Write a chemical equation for each process and classify each as reactant-favored or product-favored. (a) A puddle of water evaporates on a summer day. (b) Silicon dioxide (sand) decomposes to the elements Silicon and oxygen. (c) Paper, which is mainly cellulose (C6H10O5)n, bums at a temperature of 451 F. (d) A pinch of sugar dissolves in water at room temperature.arrow_forwardCalcium carbide, CaC2, is manufactured by reducing lime with carbon at high temperature. (The carbide is used in turn to make acetylene, an industrially important organic chemical.) Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?arrow_forward. Explain what it means that a reaction has reached a state of chemical equilibrium. Explain why equilibrium is a dynamic state: Does a reaction really “stop” when the system reaches a state of equilibrium? Explain why, once a chemical system has reached equilibrium, the concentrations of all reactants remain constant with time. Why does this constancy of concentration not contradict our picture of equilibrium as being dynamic? What happens to the rates of the forward and reverse reactions as a system proceeds to equilibrium from a starting point where only reactants are present?arrow_forward
