Question

14: Determine the equilibrium constant for the above reaction.

0.1 mol of Ca(OH)2 is placed in 2 L of water and stirred. At equilibrium, at a certain temperature, 0.0250 mol of Ca(OH)2dissolves. What is Keq? (Assume, the volume of the solution is the same as the initial volume of water.)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

15: Consider the reaction: 3A(g) + B(s) 5C(s) + 2D(g) Keq = 0.42 M-1.
[A] = 0.68 M and [D] =0.26 M. Some B and C are present. What is Q?

17: Consider the reaction: 3A(g) + B(s) 5C(s) + 2D(g) Keq = 0.42 M-1

Same reaction and Keq, but this time:
[A] = 0.86 M and [D] =0.96 M. Some B and C are present. What is Q?

Explanation / Answer

14. Ca(OH)2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of Concentration of product by the concentration reactant

Keq = [Ca2+][OH-]2

           [Ca(OH)2]

We have to convert moles to molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

[Ca2+] = moles of Ca2+/2L of H2O = 0.025 mol /2 L

              = 0.0125 mol/ L     

2 X [OH-] = 2 X moles of OH- /2L of H2O

                 = 2X 0.025 mol/2L

                 = 2X 0.0125 mol/ L

                = 0.025 mol/L  

At equilibrium Ca(OH)2 not exit because it completely dissociate in to Ca2+ & OH- Ion

Since

Keq = [Ca2+][OH-]2

       =0.0125M X (0.025)2M2

   Keq   =7.8125 x 10-6 or 0.78125 x 10-5 M3               M = mol/L

          

15. 3A(g) + B(s) 5C(s) + 2D(g)   Keq = 0.42 M-1.

        Q is reaction quotient,

Q = [C]5 [ D]2

       [A]3 [B]

Given [A] = 0.68 M and [D] =0.26 M. Some B and C are present.

We didt know the concentration of B & c

Since Q is

Q = [ D]2

       [A]3

= (0.26 M)2/ (0.68M)3

= 0.0676/0.3144

Q = 0.2150 M-1

Keq is 0.4 & Q is 0.2 what conculsion made for these two values

That is If K > Q, a reaction will proceed forward, converting reactants into products

16. 3A(g) + B(s) 5C(s) + 2D(g)   Keq = 0.42 M-1.

        Q is reaction quotient,

Q = [C]5 [ D]2

       [A]3 [B]

Given [A] = 0.86 M and [D] =0.96 M. Some B and C are present.

We didt know the concentration of B & c

Since Q is

Q = [ D]2

       [A]3

= (0.96 M)2/ (0.86M)3

= 0.9216/0.8847

Q = 1.0417M-1

Keq is 0.4 & Q is 0.1 what conculsion made for these two values

That is If K < Q, a reaction will proceed reverse direction, converting products into reactants
