Equilibrium:
The following are sample non multiple choice questions
taken from recent exams:
These particular questions cover:
-
Equilibrium constant-
Intrepretation, simple calculations.
-
Le Chatelier's Principle
-
The equilirium constant, standard free energy, and
the reaction quotient.
-
K, DG0,
and Q

Question 1 and 2 are concerned with the following
equilibrium:
Carbon dioxide and hydrogen can react to form
carbon monoxide and water.
The equililibrium constant, Kc, for
this reaction is 0.080 at 4000C.
CO2(g) + H2(g) ==
CO(g) + H2O(g)

1. If
1.0 M of carbon dioxide and 1.5 M of hydrogen are mixed together, calculate
the approximate equilibrium concentration of carbon monoxide.
|
|
2. Is
this approximation valid? SHOW YOUR WORK.
