The creation of shells by mollusk species is a fascinating process. By utilizing the Ca2+ in their food and aqueous environment, as well as some complex equilibrium processes, a hard calcium carbonate shell can be produced. One important equilibrium reaction in this complex process is HCO3(aq)H+(aq)+CO32(aq)K=5.61011 If 0.16 mole of HCO3 is placed into 1.00 L of solution, what will be the equilibrium concentration of CO32?
. Explain what it means that a reaction has reached a state of chemical equilibrium. Explain why equilibrium is a dynamic state: Does a reaction really “stop” when the system reaches a state of equilibrium? Explain why, once a chemical system has reached equilibrium, the concentrations of all reactants remain constant with time. Why does this constancy of concentration not contradict our picture of equilibrium as being dynamic? What happens to the rates of the forward and reverse reactions as a system proceeds to equilibrium from a starting point where only reactants are present?
