Accepted Answer

$$\Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S$$

Question 10

Which of the following best describes Le Chatelier’s principle?

Accepted Answer

When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it shifts to minimize the disturbance and restore equilibrium.

Question 11

The equilibrium constant $$K_c$$ for the reaction $$N_2O_4 \rightleftharpoons 2NO_2 is $$found to be 1.0 when 39.0% of $$N_2O_4 is $$dissociated in a 1.0 L container. Which calculation correctly determines $$K_c$$?

Accepted Answer

$$pOH = -\log(2.0 	imes 10$$^{-5}$$) = 4.70$$, $$pH = 14 - 4.70 = 9.30$$

Question 14

Which of the following is a correct statement about the rate-determining step in a reaction mechanism?

Accepted Answer

It is the slowest step in the mechanism and determines the overall rate.

Question 15

A reaction is second-order in one reactant with $$k = 2.0 	imes 10$$^{-2}$$ L/(mol·s). If $$[A]_0 = 0.340$$ mol/L, how long will it take for $$[A]$$ to decrease to 0.170$ mol/L?

Accepted Answer

$$t = \frac{1}{k} \left( \frac{1}{[A]_t} - \frac{1}{[A]_0} ight ) = \frac{1}{2.0 	imes 10$$^{-2}$$} \left( \frac{1}{0.170} - \frac{1}{0.340} ight ) = 147 s$$
