Equilibrium in the human body The principles of equilibrium help maintain the human body. Your overall health depends on your body's ability to react appropriately to stress in order to restore its biological balance. This process of maintaining biological balance is called homeostasis and it is similar to the way chemical equilibrium follows Le Châtelier's principle. One example of an equilibrium reaction involved in homeostasis is oxygenation of the blood. This process is driven by an equilibrium between hemoglobin (Hb), oxygen (O2), and oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) and is represented by the equation: Hb(aq)+O2(g) ⇋ HbO2(aq) Part C - Apply the method to an equilibrium reaction involved in homeostasis in biological organisms As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases. For instance, at 18,000 feet you would obtain 29% less oxygen than you would at sea level, which means that less oxygen is diffused into the
1. equilibrium shifts to O2 release 2. equilibrium shifts to HbO2 formation 3.equilibrium shifts to HbO2 formation 4. equilibrium shifts to O2 release (NOTE: The body compensates for lower oxygen levels by producing more red blood cells, which will increase the supply of hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood. Adding more hemoglobin to the system will shift the reaction in the direction of the HbO2 product, restoring required levels in the blood and easing the symptoms of altitude sickness. Climbers learn that a slow ascent makes for a more comfortable summit.)
The energy diagram shown represents the chemical reaction between solid ammonium chloride and solid barium hydroxide octahydrate: 2NH4Cl(s)+Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O(s)→2NH3(aq)+BaCl2(aq)+10H2O(l) The ΔH (Delta H) for this reaction is 54.8 kJ .

Photosynthesis can be represented by 6CO2(g)+6H2O(l)⇌C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g) Which of the following will be false when the photosynthesis reaction reaches equilibrium? 1.The rate of formation of O2 is equal to the rate of formation of CO2. 2.The concentration of O2O2 will begin decreasing. 3.The concentrations of CO2CO2 and O2O2 will not change. 4.The concentrations of CO2CO2 and O2O2 will be equal.
2 and 4 are false (At equilibrium, the forward and reverse rates are equal. So the rate of formation of O2 will be equal to the rate of formation of CO2 . Concentrations do not change at equilibrium because all species are being produced at the same rate as they are being consumed.)

The heat of reaction for a chemical reaction can be calculated by finding the sum of the bond energies of the products and subtracting that from the sum of the bond energies of the reactants: Heat of reaction==Sum of the energy for the bonds broken − Sum of the energy for the bonds formedSum of reactant bond energies − Sum of product bond energiesHeat of reaction=Sum of the energy for the bonds broken − Sum of the energy for the bonds formed=Sum of reactant bond energies − Sum of product bond energies When calculating the sum of the bond energies, each bond in the reaction must be accounted for. For example, CH4CH4 is a reagent with a coefficient of 1 in the reaction. There are four C−HC−H bonds in methane and one methane molecule per reaction, for a total of four C−HC−H bonds on the reactant side. All four bonds must be accounted for when finding the sum of the bond energies for the reactants. Calc

An intermediate step in the process that ultimately produces sulfuric acid, is the catalytic oxidation of SO2SO2 to SO3SO3. Vanadium(V) oxide is the catalyst. The three chemical species in the reaction are in equilibrium as follows: 2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g) Which of the following are true statements about this reaction? 1.When SO2 is mixed with O2 in a container, the initial rate of the forward reaction (production of SO3) is faster than the initial rate of the reverse reaction (production of SO2). 2.As SO2 is used up and SO3 accumulates, the rate of the forward reaction increases and the rate of the reverse reaction decreases. 3.At equilibrium the rate of production of SO3 reaches zero. 4.At equilibrium the concentration of SO2 will no longer be changing.
ANSWER: 1 and 4 (1. When SO2 is mixed with O2 in a container, the initial rate of the forward reaction (production of SO3) is faster than the initial rate of the reverse reaction (production of SO2). 4. At equilibrium the concentration of SO2 will no longer be changing.)
When a chemical reaction is at equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate. The concentrations of the different compounds in the reactions will remain constant. The relationship between the concentrations of the reactants and products is expressed as the equilibrium constant, Kc. Balance this equation, and then enter the coefficients, in order, below. CH4(g) + Br2(g) ⇌ CBr4(g) + HBr(g) Express your answer as integers separated by commas (e.g., 1,2,3,4), where 1 indicates the lack of a coefficient.

As we exercise, our bodies metabolize glucose, converting it to CO2 and H2O, to supply the energy necessary for physical activity. The simplified reaction is: C6H12O6(aq)+6O2(g)→6CO2(g)+6H2O(l)+678 kcal(2840 kJ) How many grams of water would have to be evaporated as sweat to remove the heat generated by the metabolism of 1 mol of glucose? (See Chemistry in Action: Regulation of Body Temperature on p. 195 in the textbook). Express your answer to four significant figures and include the appropriate units.
ANSWER: 1257 grams (NOTES: Metabolism of glucose to give carbon dioxide and water is an exothermic process and liberates energy of 2840kJ/ mol of glucose. C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(g)→6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) + 678 kcal(2840 kJ) Water has a heat of vaporization value of 40.65 kJ/mol. That is 40.65 kJ of energy is required to evaporate 1 mole of water. So 2840 kJ can vaporize 2840 / 40.65 = 69.8646 moles of sweat (water). Mass of water = number of moles * molar mass = 69.8646 * 18 = 1257.5628 g On rounding off to four significant figures we get 1257 grams = 1.257 kg)
The energy diagram shown represents the chemical reaction between solid ammonium chloride and solid barium hydroxide octahydrate: 2NH4Cl(s)+Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O(s)→2NH3(aq)+BaCl2(aq)+10H2O(l) The ΔH for this reaction is 54.8 kJ . How much energy would be absorbed if 25.5 g of NH4Cl reacts? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
ANSWER: 13.1 kJ (NOTE: 25.5 G NH4Cl x 54.8 kJ/ (2 x 53.5 g NH4Cl) = 13.05981308 ==> 13.1 kJ The reaction between Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O and ammonium salts absorbs so much energy from its surroundings that water coming in contact with the container will freeze.)

Learning Goal: To use the equilibrium constant and Le Châtelier's principle to determine how a reaction will respond to external factors. A reaction is at equilibrium when the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change over time. This does not mean the reaction is over; rather, two competing reactions continue to occur simultaneously at equal rates. The two competing reactions are the forward reaction (reactants → products) and the reverse reaction (products → reactants). If a reaction at equilibrium is subjected to a stress, the concentrations of reactants and products adjust to reestablish equilibrium. This is called Le Châtelier's principle. A stress might be a change in the concentration of reactants or products, a change in the volume of the reaction container, a change in temperature, or the addition of a catalyst. Part A Given the concentrations, calculate the equilibrium constant fo

Le Châtelier's principle In the first part of this tutorial you analyzed why stressing a reaction by adding reactant or product would shift the equilibrium to create more reactant or more product. Adding more reactant increases the concentration of reactant, which increases the forward rate of reaction as equilibrium is re-established. Le Châtelier's principle is used to analyze this relationship. Le Châtelier's principle applies to reversible reactions that are under some form of stress. Think of the equilibrium like a pile of laundry. If you add more laundry on top of the pile, the additional pieces will roll down the pile and away from the source of the addition. This is similar to the equilibrium reaction that shifts away from a component addition. If you remove a piece of laundry from the bottom of the pile, however, the remaining laundry will fall in the direction of the removed piece. Therefore, the equilib
