Q

Why does the use of sunglasses with adjustable shading a practical illustration of the Le Chatelier’s principle? (Silver chloride is the compound used in the glasses, which upon exposure to sunlight produces silver Ag and chlorine Cl2). (Oct 2021 PBE)

A. Any of these
B. The addition of energy in the form of sunlight drives the equilibrium to the right and its removal drives the equilibrium to the left, since the more metal is produced, the darker the glasses.
C. When external stress is applied to a system in equilibrium, which in this case refers to the production of silver metal which causes a change in the shade of the sunglasses.
D. The changes in temperature cause the exothermic or endothermic reaction of the silver metal production to shift from left to right or vice-versa, thus causing the shades to change.

A

B. The addition of energy in the form of sunlight drives the equilibrium to the right and its removal drives the equilibrium to the left, since the more metal is produced, the darker the glasses.

Q

In electrochemistry, specific conductance is defined as (1000/N)x K, where N is the normality of the salt solution and K is the specific conductance, current is carried by oth anions and cation to a different degree. Thus the equivalence of a salt is the sum of the ionic conductances of the cation and anion. If the ionic conductance of Na+ is 50.1 and that chloride is 76.3 what is the estimated concentration of NaCl in mg/L? The specific conductance of NaCl is 125 x 106. (Oct 2021 PBE)
