Chapter 5, Problem 5I.13E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equilibrium composition of the mixture in a reaction vessel of volume 2.00L has to be calculated.  The reaction is given below.

  Cl2(g)2Cl(g),Kc=1.2×107

(a)

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

The required reaction is given below.

  Cl2(g)2Cl(g),Kc=1.2×107

The expression for equilibrium constant for the above reaction can be written as shown below,

  Kc=[Cl]2[Cl2]

Given that, 2.0mmolCl2(g) was sealed into a reaction vessel of volume 2.0L.  The concentration of Cl2(g) can be calculated as given below.

  [Cl2]=molesvolume=2×103mol2.00L=0.001M

An equilibrium table can be set up as given below.

  Composition(M)Cl2ClInitialconcentration0.0010Changeinconcentrationx+2xEquilibriumconcentration0.001x2x

Now, these values in the fourth row can be inserted in the equilibrium constant expression as shown below.

  Kc=(2x)2(0.001x)

By assuming x0.001, it can be written that 0.001x0.001.

Now, the above equilibrium expression can be solved for x.

  Kc=(2x)2(0.001x)1.2×107=4x2(0.001)x2=1.2×107×1034x=5.5×10-6[Cl2]=0.001M[Cl]=2x=2×5.5×10-6=1.1×10-5M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentrations of Cl2andCl in a reaction vessel are 0.001Mand1.1×10-5M respectively.

Explanation of Solution

The required reaction is given below.

  F2(g)2F(g),Kc=1.2×104

The expression for equilibrium constant for the above reaction can be written as shown below,

  Kc=[F]2[F2]

Given that, 2.0mmolF2(g) was sealed into a reaction vessel of volume 2.0L.  The concentration of F2(g) can be calculated as given below.

  [F2]=molesvolume=2×103mol2.00L=0.001M

An equilibrium table can be set up as given below.

  Composition(M)F2FInitialconcentration0.0010Changeinconcentrationx+2xEquilibriumconcentration0.001x2x

Now, these values in the fourth row can be inserted in the equilibrium constant expression as shown below.

  Kc=(2x)2(0.001x)

By assuming x0.001, it can be written that 0.001x0.001.

Now, the above equilibrium expression can be solved for x.

  Kc=(2x)2(0.001x)1.2×104=4x2(0.001)x2=1.2×104×1034x=5.5×10-8[F2]=0.001M[F]=2x=2×5.5×10-8=1.1×10-7M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentrations of F2andF in a reaction vessel are 0.001Mand1.1×10-7M respectively.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The one which is thermodynamically more stable relative to its atoms at 1000K has to be determined.

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Then dissociation constant of F2 is larger than that of Cl2 at 1000K.  This infers that at 1000K more F2 will dissociate to its atoms than that of Cl2.  Therefore, Cl2 is more stable relative to its atoms at 1000K.
