For the given equilibrium reaction: A+2B=C The equilibrium constant is 4.6 at 298 K. Considering the initial concentration of A, B and C as 0.56 M, 0.32 M and 0.22 M, the system is allowed to reach equilibrium in a 1.0 L closed flask. At this point an additional 0.10 moles of C are added to the reaction mixture. When the system re-establishes equilibrium, determine the final partial pressure of B.

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?
Suppose a reaction has the equilibrium constant K = 1.3 108. What does the magnitude of this constant tell you about the relative concentrations of products and reactants that will be present once equilibrium is reached? Is this reaction likely to be a good source of the products?
