Answer from: Iakwe5061

The final concentration of D at equilibrium is 0.7422 M.

Explanation:

You know:

A + B ⇔ C + D

You can see that according to the stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction) the relationship between A, B, C and D is 1.

On the other hand, the chemical equilibrium is established when there are two opposite reactions which take place simultaneously at the same speed. It is represented by the equilibrium constant, which is defined as:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} *[B]^{b} }$

where a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficients, which in this case have a value of 1. Then the equilibrium constant is:

$Kc=\frac{[C]*[D]}{[A]*[B]}=1.7$

"x" is considered as the concentration of A that is consumed by the reaction. Then, following the stoichiometry set out above, "x" concentration of B will also be consumed, and "x" concentration of C and B will occur.

Then, if the initial concentrations are [A] = 1.00 M and [B] = 2.00 M, you can raise:

[A]= (1.00 - x) M

[B]= (2.00 - x) M

[C]= x M

[D]= x M

Replacing in the exprision of the equilibrium constant stated previously:

$\frac{x*x}{(1-x)*(2-x)} =1.7$

Resolving:

$\frac{x^{2} }{2-3*x+x^{2}} =1.7$

$x^{2} =1.7*(2-3*x+x^{2} )$

$x^{2} =3.4-5.1*x+1.7*x^{2}$

$0.7*x^{2} -5.1*x+3.4=0\\$

The solutions are x=6.5434 and x=0.7422

If you observe the expression of concentration of A, which is the reagent that has the lowest initial concentration, the solution of x = 6.5434 makes no sense because the value of x is greater than 1. This would indicate that the concentration after the reaction would be negative and consume more than available. And this is not possible. So the solution of x is 0.7422.

If [D]=x, then the final concentration of D at equilibrium is 0.7422 M.

Answer from: Quest

answer is: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

this is chemical change (chemical reaction), because two new substances are formed (metalig liquid and gas), the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

this is example of chemical decomposition.

chemical decomposition (analysis) is the separation of a single chemical compound into its two or more elemental parts or to simpler compounds.

chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.
