CHEM1112- section# Experiment #6 Your Name Date Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Lab Partner: Lab Partner’s Name Data and Observations (16 pts) (be mindful of units and significant figures) Part I. Temperature throughout the experiment: Beake r [FeSCN 2+ ] Absorbance at 247 nm 1 1.6*10 -4 Experiment: .615 2 1.2*10 -4 Experiment: .464 3 8*10 -5 Experiment: .340 4 2*10 -5 Experiment: .205 A DVICE FOR FILLING IN THE TABLE . 1) Since in this part of the experiment you used a significant excess of Fe 3+ , amount of product produced ( FeSCN 2+ ) will be limited by the amount of the limiting reactant (SCN - ). That is, [FeSCN 2+ ]=[SCN - ] in this particular case. 2) The moment you mixed your 0.0020 M SCN solution with other solutions, its concentration (underline) decreased/increased. You can always use M 1 V 1 =M 2 V 2 to calculate molarity changes during dilutions. As long as you use same units for volume on both sides, formula will work. L INEAR R EGRESSION E QUATION 1) Use Microsoft Excel on a lab or personal computer to find an equation that describes data values from your table above. It is commonly known as Beer’s law. Beer’s law y=3385x+0.0675 1
CHEM1112- section# Experiment #6 Your Name Date Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Lab Partner: Lab Partner’s Name Data. Part II Now you’ll be using Beer’s law found above to your benefit, to solve for the unknown [FeSCN 2+ ]. Beaker Absorbance at 457 nm [FeSCN 2+ ] as determined from Beer’s law A Experiment:0.305 7.02*10 -5 B Experiment:0.300 6.87*10 -5 C Experiment:0.272 6.04*10 -5 Show an example of calculation on how you found [FeSCN 2+ ] for the table above: (.305-.0675)/3385=x To find the equilibrium constant (K) value for the formation of [FeSCN 2+ ], you need to know equilibrium concentrations of [Fe 3+ ], [SCN - ], and [FeSCN 2+ ]. You found out [FeSCN 2+ ] from the table above. To find the two remaining equilibrium concentrations, you’ll need to use ICE tables. Advice for filling in the ICE tables below. 1) You can always use M 1 V 1 =M 2 V 2 to calculate initial molarities of Fe 3+ and SCN - . Recall that you diluted their original concentrations, the moment you mixed them with each other and water. As long as you use same units for volume on both sides, formula will work. 2) [Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ] and [Fe 3+ ] are same values, because Fe(NO 3 ) 3 is a soluble salt, a strong electrolyte. In water, it will dissociate completely into Fe 3+ and three times as many NO 3 - , nitrate ions. Therefore, [Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ] = [Fe 3+ ]. Analogously, [KSCN] = [SCN - ]. 3) Equilibrium value of FeSCN 2+ you’ve calculated using Beer’s law, see above. 4) The rest of the table is filled using stoichiometry (logics). Clarify with classmates/instructor to make sure you’re on the right track. 5) After finding the last row of the ICE table (equilibrium concentrations), you can now calculate the equilibrium constant (K) value for this reaction, the key purpose of the lab.
