Question

A reaction occurs according to the equation:

2A (aq) ⇌ Y (aq) + 2Z (aq)

In a 5-L vessel, 4 moles of A are initially present. At equilibrium, it was found that 1 mole of A remained.

Question 1

Doubling the volume of the reaction vessel will favor the formation of more Y.

True

False

 

2. Calculate the reaction quotient Q when the vessel was found to contain 1 mole of each of the species?

3. Based on the calculated values of Q and Kc, at what direction shall the reaction proceed to attain equilibrium?

Kc =  2.7 mol dm3
