Chapter 15, Problem 104SAE

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The symbol $K_p$ should be defined and explained.

Concept introduction:

The symbol $K_p$ is equilibrium constant of gaseous mixtures in terms of partial pressures of gases.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The symbol $Q_c$ should be defined and explained.

Concept introduction:

The symbol $Q_c$ is the reaction quotient in terms of concentrations. Reaction quotient can be used to predict the direction of the net change of a reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The symbol $\Delta v_{gas}$ should be defined and explained.

Concept introduction:

The symbol $\Delta v_{gas}$ is term used in presenting the relationship between equilibrium constants.
