Chapter 13.2, Problem 13.3P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equilibrium constantexpression for given reaction has to becalculated.

Concept introduction:

Equilibrium constant(Kc):

Equilibrium constant (Kc) is the ratio of the rate constants of the forward and reverse reactions at a given temperature. In other words it is the ratio of the concentrations of the products to concentrations of the reactants. Each concentration term is raised to a power, which is same as the coefficients in the chemical reaction.

Consider the reaction where A reacts to give B.

aAbB

Rate of forward reaction = Rate of reverse reactionkf[A]a=kr[B]b

On rearranging,

[A]a[B]b=kfkr=Kc

Where,

kf is the rate constant of the forward reaction.

kr is the rate constant of the reverse reaction.

Kc is the equilibrium constant.
