- Chemical equation is the representation of a chemical reaction, in which the reactants and products of the reactions are represented left and right side of an arrow respectively by using their respective chemical formulas.
- Reactant of a chemical reaction is the substrate compounds or the compounds which undergo a chemical reaction.
- Product of a chemical reaction is the produced compounds or the compounds formed after a chemical reaction.
- Balanced chemical equation of a reaction is written according to law of conservation of mass.
Moles: One mole is equivalent to the mass of the substance consists same number of units equal to the atoms present in
From given mass of substance moles could be calculated by using the following formula,

- a Calculate K1, at 25C for sulfurous acid: H2SO3(aq)H+(aq)+HSO3(aq) b Which thermodynamic factor is the most significant in accounting for the fact that sulfurous acid is a weak acid? Why?arrow_forwardThe free energy for a reaction decreases as temperature increases. Explain how this observation is used to determine the sign of either H or S.arrow_forwardConsider the reaction of 2 mol H2(g) at 25C and 1 atm with 1 mol O2(g) at the same temperature and pressure to produce liquid water at these conditions. If this reaction is run in a controlled way to generate work, what is the maximum useful work that can be obtained? How much entropy is produced in this case?arrow_forward
