    Equilibrium Table
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on completing an equilibrium table for Ba2+ and IO3- based on lab mixtures. The user has calculated absorbency and the concentration of IO3-, but seeks guidance on determining the changes in concentration for Ba2+. They note a 2:1 stoichiometric ratio between IO3 and Ba2+, and are uncertain whether to divide the change in IO3 by 2 or take its square root to find the change in Ba2+. The conversation emphasizes the importance of mass balance and reaction stoichiometry in solving the problem. Clarification on the experimental procedure is also acknowledged as a potential challenge in providing assistance.

1. I have created 5 mixtures in lab and from these mixtures I am suppose to complete the equilibrium tables. I have already found most of the data via calculations such as the absorbency and the concentration of IO3- (which is the one known concentration on the equilibrium chart) I am just curious as of how to find the rest of the chart, such as the change in concentration of Ba2+ and it's equilibrium 2.(see attached pictures)
3. If you look at the pictures I have attached I found out the equilibrium of IO3 and the change in IO3, I know in order to find the other two blank boxes I must take in account that there is a 2:1 ratio between IO3 and Ba2+. I'm not sure if I should divide the change of IO3 by 2 or take the square root of it in order to find the change in Ba2+. Any help is appreciated. I have 5 mixtures to do but if I am able to find out how to do this one I can do the rest on my own.

Thank you in advance!

Sorry, not knowing what was the experimental procedure it is hard to answer. It is all about mass balance and reaction stoichiometry.
 
Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'
TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
