Chapter 8, Problem 8.43E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The equilibrium expression for the given reaction is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

The equilibrium constant of a reaction is expressed as the ratio of concentration of products and reactants each raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. A general equilibrium reaction is represented as,aA+bBcC+dD

The equilibrium constant for the above chemical reaction is expressed as,K=[C]c[D]d[A]a[B]b

Where,

[ A ] represents the equilibrium concentration of reactant A.

[ B ] represents the equilibrium concentration of reactant B.

[ C ] represents the equilibrium concentration of product C.

[ D ] represents the equilibrium concentration of product D.

a represents the stoichiometric coefficient of reactant A.

b represents the stoichiometric coefficient of reactant B.

c represents the stoichiometric coefficient of product C.

d represents the stoichiometric coefficient of product D.

Answer to Problem 8.43E

The equilibrium constant for the given gaseous reaction is expressed as,K=[Ni(NH3)62+][Ni2+][NH3]6

Explanation of Solution

The given gaseous reaction is represented as,Ni2++6NH3Ni(NH3)62+

The concentration of the product Ni(NH3)62+ will be in the numerator and is raised to the power 1. The concentration of reactant Ni2+ and NH3 will be in the denominator. The concentration of reactant Ni2+ is raised to the power 1 and NH3 is raised to the power 6. Therefore, the equilibrium constant for the above reaction is expressed as,K=[Ni(NH3)62+][Ni2+][NH3]6

Conclusion

The equilibrium constant for the given reaction is expressed as,K=[Ni(NH3)62+][Ni2+][NH3]6

Answer to Problem 8.43E

The equilibrium constant for the given gaseous reaction is expressed as,K=[Sn4+][Fe2+]2[Sn2+][Fe3+]2

Explanation of Solution

The given gaseous reaction is represented as,Sn2++2Fe3+Sn4++2Fe2+

The concentration of the product Sn4+ and Fe2+ will be in the numerator. The concentration of the product Sn4+ is raised to 1 and Fe2+ is raised to the power 2. The concentration of reactant Sn2+ and Fe3+ will be in the denominator. The concentration of reactant Sn2+ is raised to the power 1 and Fe3+ is raised to the power 2. Therefore, the equilibrium constant for the above reaction is expressed as,K=[Sn4+][Fe2+]2[Sn2+][Fe3+]2

Conclusion

The equilibrium constant for the given reaction is expressed as,K=[Sn4+][Fe2+]2[Sn2+][Fe3+]2

Answer to Problem 8.43E

The equilibrium constant for the given gaseous reaction is expressed as,K=[Cl2][F]2[Cl]2[F2]

Explanation of Solution

The given gaseous reaction is represented as,F2+2Cl2F+Cl2

The concentration of the product F and Cl2 will be in the numerator. The concentration of the product Cl2 is raised to 1 and F is raised to the power 2. The concentration of reactant Cl and F2 will be in the denominator. The concentration of reactant F2 is raised to the power 1 and Cl is raised to the power 2. Therefore, the equilibrium constant for the above reaction is expressed as,K=[Cl2][F]2[Cl]2[F2]

Conclusion

The equilibrium constant for the given reaction is expressed as,K=[Cl2][F]2[Cl]2[F2]
