Question
A system that is not at equilibrium is found to contain 0.100 M of A (aq), 0.100 M of B (aq), and 0.290 M
of C(aq). Note that each of these species are hypothetical and do not represent actual elements from the
periodic table. The reaction involving these three species is shown below:
A (aq) + B (aq) — С(aq) Kc = 0.520
a) What is the value of Q for the system based on the conditions described above?
Qc :
b) Which direction would the reaction proceed in order to reach equilibrium?
Shift left to form more reactants
Shift right to form more products
O The system is already at equilibrium
c) Determine the concentration of each of the three species once the system reaches equilibrium.
