Consider the equilibrium system described by the chemical reaction below. Calculate the value of Qc for the initial set reaction conditions in 2.50 L container: 11.1 g C, 2.45 g H₂O, 15.3 g CO and 7.55 g H₂.
C(s) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO(g) + H₂(g)
 
 
 
 
Expert Solution
Step 1

The given chemical reaction is,

C(s) + H2O(g) ---> CO(g) + H2(g)

The reaction quotient,

      Qc={[CO]1×[H2]1}/{[C]1×[H2O]1}

Or, Qc= [CO]•[H2]/[C]•[H2O]
