A common type of reaction we will study is that having a very small K value (K 1). Solving for equilibrium concentrations in an equilibrium problem usually requires many mathematical operations to be perfomed. However, the math involved when solving equilibrium problems for reactions having small K values (K 1) is simplified. What assumption is made when solving the equilibrium concentrations for reactions with small K values? Whenever assumptions are made, they must be checked for validity. In general, the 5% rule is used to check the validity of assuming x (or 2 x, 3x, and so on) is very small compared to some number. When x (or 2 x. 3x. and so on) is less than 5% of the number the assumption was made against, then the assumption is said to be valid. If the 5% rule fails, what do you do to solve for the equilibrium concentrations?

Isopropyl alcohol is the main ingredient in rubbing alcohol. It can decompose into acetone (the main ingredient in nail polish remover) and hydrogen gas according to the following reaction: C3H7OH(g)C2H6CO(g)+H2(g)At 180C, the equilibrium constant for the decomposition is 0.45. If 20.0 mL (d=0.785g/mL) of isopropyl alcohol is placed in a 5.00-L vessel and heated to 180C, what percent- age remains undissociated at equilibrium?
At 25C. Kp = 5.3 105 for the reaction N2(g)+3H2(g)2NH3(g) When a certain partial pressure of NH3(g) is put into an otherwise empty rigid vessel at 25C, equilibrium is reached when 50.0% of the original ammonia has decomposed. What was the original partial pressure of ammonia before any decomposition occurred?
Consider the decomposition of ammonium hydrogen sulfide: NH4HS(s)NH3(g)+H2S(g) In a sealed flask at 25C are 10.0 g of NH4HS, ammonia with a partial pressure of 0.692 atm, and H2S with a partial pressure of 0.0532 atm. When equilibrium is established, it is found that the partial pressure of ammonia has increased by 12.4%. Calculate K for the decomposition of NH4HS at 25C.
For a typical equilibrium problem, the value of K and the initial reaction conditions are given for a specific reaction, and you are asked to calculate the equilibrium concentrations. Many of these calculations involve solving a quadratic or cubic equation. What can you do to avoid solving a quadratic or cubic equation and still come up with reasonable equilibrium concentrations?
In a particular experiment, the equilibrium constant measured for the reaction, Cl2(g)+NO2(g)Cl2NO2(g), is 2.8. Based on this measurement, calculate AG° for this reaction. Calculate AG° using data from Appendix E at the back of the book and discuss the agreement between your two calculations.
