- Ammonium hydrogen sulfide. NH4HS, is unstable at room temperature and decomposes: NH4HS(s)NH3(g)+H2S(g) You have placed some solid ammonium hydrogen sulfide in a closed flask. Which of the following would produce less hydrogen sulfide, H2S, which is a poisonous gas? a Removing some NH3 from the flask b Adding some NH3 to the flask c Removing some of the NH4HS d Increasing the pressure in the flask by adding helium gasarrow_forwardThe following equilibrium is established in a closed container: C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g)H=393kJmol1 How does the equilibrium shift in response to each of the following stresses? (a) The quantity of solid carbon is increased. (b) A small quantity of water is added, and CO2 dissolves in it. (c) The system is cooled. (d) The volume of the container is increased.arrow_forwardGiven the following descriptions of reversible reactions, write a balanced net ionic equation (simplest whole-number coefficients) and the equilibrium constant expression (K) for each. (a) Liquid acetone (C3H6O) is in equilibrium with its vapor. (b) Hydrogen gas reduces nitrogen dioxide gas to form ammonia and steam. (c) Hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) bubbled into an aqueous solution of lead(ll) ions produces lead sulfide precipitate and hydrogen ions.arrow_forward

Which of these changes (i to v) increases the value of K? Which decreases it?arrow_forwardThe equilibrium constant Kc for the synthesis of methanol, CH3OH. CO(g)+2H2(g)CH3OH(g) is 4.3 at 250C and 1.8 at 275C. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?arrow_forward
- A 4.72-g sample of methanol (CH3OH) was placed in an otherwise empty 1.00-L flask and heated to 250.C to vaporize the methanol. Over time, the methanol vapor decomposed by the following reaction: CH3OH(g)CO(g)+2H2(g) After the system has reached equilibrium, a tiny hole is drilled in the side of the flask allowing gaseous compounds to effuse out of the flask. Measurements of the effusing gas show that it contains 33.0 times as much H2(g) as CH3OH(g). Calculate K for this reaction at 250.C.arrow_forwardComplete the changes in concentrations (or pressure, if requested) for each of the following reactions‘ (a) 2H2(g)+O2(g)2H2O(g) + 2x 1.50M (b) CS2(g)+4H2(g)CH4(g)+2H2S(g) x 0.020 M (c) Change in pressure: H2(g)+CI2(g)2HCI(g)x 1.50 atm (d) Change in pressure: 2NH3(g)+2O2(g)N2O(g)+3H2O(g) x = 60.6 torr (e) NH4HS(s)NH3+H2S(g) x 9.8106M (f) Change in pressure: Fe(s)+5CO(g)Fe(CO)5(g) x 0.012 atmarrow_forwardExplain the difference between K, Kp, and Q.arrow_forward

N2(g)+3H2(g)2NH3(g) When these reactants come to equilibrium, assume that x mol H2 react. How many moles of ammonia form?arrow_forwardA gaseous material XY(g) dissociates to some extent to produce X(g) and Y(g): XY(g)X(g)+Y(g) A 2.00-g sample of XY (molar mass = 165 g/mol) is placed in a container with a movable piston at 25C. The pressure is held constant at 0.967 atm. As XY begins to dissociate, the piston moves until 35.0 mole percent of the original XY has dissociated and then remains at a constant position. Assuming ideal behavior, calculate the density of the gas in the container after the piston has stopped moving, and determine the value of K for this reaction of 25C.arrow_forward
