- Suppose you have two identical unopened bottles of carbonated beverage. The contents of both bottles appear to be perfectly clear. You loosen the cap of one of the bottles and hear a hiss as gas escapes, and at the same time gas bubbles appear in the liquid. The liquid in the unopened bottle still appears to be perfectly clear. Explain these observations using the concept of equilibrium and Le Chteliers principle. Remember, a carbonated beverage contains carbon dioxide gas dissolved in a liquid under pressure.arrow_forwardWhat happens to the reactants in an ineffective molecular collision?arrow_forwardA reaction is represented by this equation: A(aq)+2B2C(aq) Kc=1103 (a) Write the mathematical expression for the equilibrium constant.
