(c) How can the process be manipulated so that it does not reach equilibrium, allowing the continuous removal of hydrogen sulfide?arrow_forwardIn Section 13.1 of your text, it is mentioned that equilibrium is reached in a closed system.

If so, how is it that NO can be made and kept in the laboratory for long periods?arrow_forward
- . Explain what it means that a reaction has reached a state of chemical equilibrium. Explain why equilibrium is a dynamic state: Does a reaction really “stop” when the system reaches a state of equilibrium? Explain why, once a chemical system has reached equilibrium, the concentrations of all reactants remain constant with time. Why does this constancy of concentration not contradict our picture of equilibrium as being dynamic? What happens to the rates of the forward and reverse reactions as a system proceeds to equilibrium from a starting point where only reactants are present?arrow_forwardThe following reaction is earned out at 500 K in a container equipped with a movable piston. A(g)+B(g)C(g);Kc=10(at500K) After the reaction has reached equilibrium, the container has the composition depicted here. Suppose the container volume is doubled. a How does the equilibrium composition shift? b How does the concentration of each of the reactants and the product change? (That is, does the concentration increase, decrease, or stay the same?)arrow_forwardExplain that equilibrium is dynamic, and that at equilibrium the forward and backward reaction rates are equal.arrow_forward
