Answer to Problem 6ALQ
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is expressed as,
K=[C][A][B]
At equilibrium [A]=2M,[B]=1M and [C]=4M.
Substitute the value of equilibrium concentration in the above equation.
K=[C][A][B]= [4][2][1]= 2
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is 2.
Hence, the first statement is correct.
It is given that after adding the 3 moles of B, the possible equilibrium condition is [A]=1M,[B]=3M and [C]=6M.
But after the addition of 3 moles of B, the concentration of B will increase to 4M and the concentration of the A will be same as 2M. Hence, the value of equilibrium constant will be change.
The correct statements are given below.
The possible equilibrium condition will be [A]=2M,[B]=4M and [C]=6M.
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is calculated as follows:
K=[C][A][B]= [6][4][2]= 0.75
The new equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction will be 0.75.
Explanation of Solution
The given reaction is,
A(g)+B(g)⇌C(g)
At equilibrium [A]=2M,[B]=1M and [C]=4M.
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is expressed as,
K=[C][A][B]
Substitute the value of equilibrium concentration in the above equation.
K=[C][A][B]= [4][2][1]= 2
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is 2.
Hence, the first statement is correct.
It is given that after adding the 3 moles of B, the possible equilibrium condition is [A]=1M,[B]=3M and [C]=6M.
But after the addition of 3 moles of B to the first statement, the concentration of B will increase to 4M and the concentration of the A will be same as 2M. Hence, the value of equilibrium constant will be change.
Therefore, the possible equilibrium condition will be [A]=2M,[B]=4M and [C]=6M.
Hence, the second statement is incorrect.
The corrected statement is shown below.
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is expressed as,
K=[C][A][B]
Substitute the value of equilibrium concentration in the above equation
K=[C][A][B]= [6][4][2]= 0.75
The new equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction will be 0.75.
Hence, the first statement is correct and second statement is incorrect.
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is expressed as,
K=[C][A][B]
At equilibrium [A]=2M,[B]=1M and [C]=4M.
Put the value of equilibrium concentration in the above equation.
K=[C][A][B]= [4][2][1]= 2
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is 2.
Hence, the first statement is correct.
It is given that after adding the 3 moles of B, the possible equilibrium condition is [A]=1M,[B]=3M and [C]=6M.
But after the addition of 3 moles of B, the concentration of B will increase to 4M and the concentration of the A will be same as 2M. Hence, the value of equilibrium constant will be change.
The possible equilibrium condition will be [A]=2M,[B]=4M and [C]=6M.
Hence, the second statement is incorrect.
The corrected statement is shown below.
The equilibrium constant for the given chemical reaction is calculated as follows:
