Chapter EQ, Problem 6PQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The option which is the correct value of $K_c$ for the reaction given below has to be chosen.

  $3A\left(aq\right)\rightleftharpoons B\left(aq\right)+2C\left(aq\right)$

Concept Introduction:

Consider a general equilibrium reaction.

  $aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The expression of $K_c$ for the above reaction can be written as given below.

  $K_c=\frac{{\left[C\right]}^c{\left[D\right]}^d}{{\left[A\right]}^a{\left[B\right]}^b}$
