2-7: Equilibrium shifts Maddox
Anderson 1. Did the equilibrium shift and in which direction? -> Adding NaC₂H₃O₂ introduces C₂H₃O₂⁻ ions, increasing its concentration, reaction shifts left to reduce added acetate ions, H+ decreases. 2. How did the pH of the solution after adding NaC 2H3O2 to it? (Identify which ion is being added to the solution and how it affects the concentration of other ions present in the solution.) -> pH will increase because H+ concentration decreases. 3. Explain how the equilibrium shifted when you added HCl to the solution? -> HCl increases H+ ions, equilibrium shifts right to produce more dichromate. 4. Which chromium ion is orange, and which is yellow? How did you know? -> chromate is yellow, dichromate is orange. I know this because adding H+ from HCl shifts right, producing dichromate. 5. How did the equilibrium shift when you added NaOH to the solution (think about what NaOH will react with and how will that result will affect the other components present in the solution.) -> NaOH neutralizes H+, decreasing its concentration, shifting the reaction to the left. 6. Explain how the equilibrium shifted when you dissolved the BiCL 3 in excess water. -> adding water decreases H+ and Cl- ions, shifting the reaction to the right. 7. Explain how the equilibrium sifted after the addition of HCl. -> HCl increases the concentration of H+ and Cl-, shifting the equilibrium to the left to dissolve the BiOCl. 8. Explain how the equilibrium shifted after dilution. -> Dilution reduces all ions concentrations, shifting the reaction to the right side which has more ions present. 9. According to the equilibrium equation, which ions do you have after the solid was diluted? Explain how you know the identity of the ions present. -> Dilution favors the side with more particles (left), meaning there will be mostly Co(H2O)62+. 10. Explain what happened when HCl was added to the solution. -> HCl increases Cl-, shifting equilibrium to the right to form more CoCl4 2-. 11. Explain what happened when the solution was heated. Was the shift in equilibrium exothermic or endothermic? -> Heating favors the endothermic side (takes in heat), and because it turns blue the shift to the right is endothermic. 12. Explain what happened when the solution was cooled. Was the shift in equilibrium endothermic or exothermic? -> Cooling favors the exothermic side, since it turns the solution pink, the shift to the left is exothermic. 13. When the test tube was placed in the hot water bath, was the shift in equilibrium endothermic or exothermic? Explain. -> heating made the solution more red, meaning the reaction shifts right, and that it is endothermic. 14. Explain what happened when you added more Fe(NO 3)3 and KSCN. -> The reaction shifts right and solution becomes more red. 15. Explain what happened after you added AgNO3. Hint: determine the potential products being formed when adding AgNO3 to the solution. -> The solid AgSCN is formed, decreasing SCN- concentration, shifting the reaction left which causes a lighter solution color. 16. Explain what happened after you added NaOH. Hint: determine the potential product being formed from adding NaOH the solution. -> Fe(OH)3 is formed, reducing Fe3+ concentration, shifting the solution left, reducing the redness of the solution.
