For the reaction below, kp 5 1.16 at 800.8c. caco3(s) 34 cao(s) 1 co2(g) if a 20.0-g sample of caco3 is put into a 10.0-l container and heated to 800.8c, what percentage by mass of the caco3 will react to reach equilibrium?

The mass percentage of calcium carbonated reacted is 2.5%.

Explanation:

The reaction is:

Thus the Kp of the equilibrium will be:

Kp = partial pressure of carbon dioxide [as the other are solid]

Moles of calcium carbonate initially present =

Let us apply ICE table to the equilibrium given:

Initial                       0.2                       0          0

Change                 -x                            +x        +x

Equilibrium           0.2-x                         x          x

Kp = partial pressure of carbon dioxide

Kp = Kc(RT)ⁿ

where n = difference in the number of moles of gaseous products and reactants

for given reaction n = 1

R = gas constant = 8.314 J /mol K

T = temperature = 800 ⁰C = 1073 K

Putting values

Kc =

Kc =

On calculating

x =  0.005

where x = the moles of calcium carbonate dissociated or reacted.

Percentage of the moles or mass reacted = %

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
