Transcribed Image Text:What is the numerical value of Keq is the equilibrium concentrations are as follows? [A] = 0.45 M, [B] = 0.75 M, [C] = 0.50 M 3 A (aq) = 2 B (aq) + C (aq)
Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction to the given data

The given balanced chemical equilibrium reaction i,sp;chemical equilibrium reaction i s

3 A (aq )rightwards harpoon over leftwards harpoon2 B (aq) + C (aq)

The equilibrium concentrations of the reactants and products are as follows:

[A] = 0.45 M, [B] = 0.75 M and [C] = 0.50 M

The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction is defined as the ratio of the product of the active masses of the products to product of active masses of the reactants, each term raised to the power of their stoichiometric co-efficients in the balanced chemical equation. 

The equilibrium constant (Keq) of the above reaction is given
