EXERCISE: CHAPTER 6
Write the equilibrium constant expression for each of the following reactions and calculate the
value of the equilibrium constant for each of them.
2NO2(g) N2(g) + 2O2(g)
Kreverse=1/Kforward
1/100= 0.01
= 1/50= 0.02
2. Hydrogen iodide is a colourless gas that is exceptionally soluble in water. It can be prepared
by combining hydrogen and iodine according to the following equation.
H2(g) + I2(g) 2HI(g)
Initially, 0.80 mol H2 gas and 0.50 mol of I2 gas were mixed in a 5.25 L vessel at 25℃. After
the system had reached the equilibrium, 0.91 mol HI gas was found in the vessel. Calculate the
Kc.
Kc= 0.1733^2/(0.152x0.0952)
= 2.0703
Predict the effect that each of the following changes will have on the concentration of SO2 and
SO3. Justify your answers.
i) The reacting mixture is heated.
Increasing temperature shifts the equilibrium to the left. Thus, high temperatures
favour SO2, while SO3 predominates at low temperatures. Temperature rise will
increase K for system with positive deltaH reaction
