In the text, the equation G=G+RTIn(Q) was derived for gaseous reactions where the quantities in Q were expressed in units of pressure. We also can use units of mol/L for the quantities in Q, specifical.ly for aqueous reactions. With this in mind, consider the reaction HF(aq)H+(aq)+F-(aq) for which Ka = 7.2 104 at 25C. Calculate G for the reaction under the following conditions at 25C. a. [HF] = [H+] = [F] = 1.0 M b. [HF] = 0.98 M, [H+] = [F] = 2.7 102M c. [HF] = [H+] = [F] = 1.0 105 M d. [HF] = [F] = 0.27 M, [H+] = 7.2 104M e. [HF] = 0.52 M, [F] = 0.67 M, [H+] = 1.0 103M Based on the calculated G values, in what direction will the reaction shift to reach equilibrium for each of the five sets of conditions?

The hydrocarbon naphthalene was frequently used in mothballs until recently, when it was discovered that human inhalation of naphthalene vapors can lead to hemolytic anemia. Naphthalene is 93.71% carbon by mass, and a 0.256-mole sample of naphthalene has a mass of 32.8 g. What is the molecular formula of naphthalene? This compound works as a pesticide in mothballs by. sublimation of the .solid so that it fumigates enclosed spaces with its vapors according to the equation Naphthalene(s)naphthalene(g)K=4.29106(at298K) If 3.00 g solid naphthalene is placed into an enclosed space with a volume of 5.00 L at 25C, what percentage of the naphthalene will have sublimed once equilibrium bas been established?
