- At 0°C and 1 bar, a monolayer of CO adsorbed on 1 g of Fe/Al2O3 catalyst occupies a volume of 4.25 cm3. What is the area of the catalyst? The area per adsorbed particle is 0.165 nm2. Give your answer in m2.arrow_forwardIodine is sparingly soluble in water but much more so in carbon tetrachloride. The equilibrium constant, also called the partition coefficient, for the distribution of I2 between these two phases I2(aq) =12(CCI4) is 83 at 20°C. (a) A student adds 0.028 L of CCI4 to 0.213 L of an aqueous solution containing 0.037 g I2. The mixture is shaken and the two phases are then allowed to separate. Calculate the fraction of I2 remaining in the aqueous phase. 4.0 (b) The student now repeats the extraction of I2 with another 0.028 L of CCI4. Calculate the fraction of I2 from the original solution that remains in the aqueous phase. 4.0 (c) Compare the result in (b) with a single extraction using 0.056 L of CCI4. Comment on the difference. After a single extraction using 0.056 L of CCI4, the fraction of I2 that remains in the aqueous phase is 40 This result is larger than the result in (b), which means that a single large extraction is not as efficient as two separate smaller extractions.arrow_forward|The Kc for CO(g) + 3H,(g) = CH,(g) + H2O(g) is 9.17 x 10-2.
