Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 66IL
The photograph below shows what occurs when a solution of potassium chromate is treated with a few drops of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Some of the bright yellow chromate ion is converted to the orange dichromate ion.
2 CrO42−(aq) + 2 H3O+(aq) ⇄ CrO72−(aq) + 3 H2O(ℓ)
(a) Explain this experimental observation in terms of Le Chatelier’s principle.
(b) What would you observe if you treated the orange solution with sodium hydroxide? Explain your observation.

Swimming pool disinfectants produce hypochlorous acid upon dissolution. The weak acid ionizes as follows:
HClO (aq) ⇄ H+ (aq) + ClO‒ (aq) Ka=3.0 x 10 ‒8
As strong oxidizing agents, both acid and its conjugate base kill bacteria. However, too high [HClO] is irritating to swimmers’ eyes and too high [ClO‒] will cause the ions to decompose in sunlight. The recommended pH to circumvent both problems is 7.8. Determine the ratio of the weak acid and its conjugate base at this pH.
Write equilibrium constant expression for the following:Fe2O3 (s) + 3 H2 (l) ⇌ 2 Fe (s) + 3 H2O (g)
