Many sugars undergo a process called mutarotation, in which the sugar molecules interconvert between two isomeric forms, finally reaching an equilibrium between them. This is true for the simple sugar glucose, C6H12O6, which exists in solution in isomeric forms called alpha-glucose and beta-glucose. If a solution of glucose at a certain temperature is analyzed, and it is found that the concentration of alpha-glucose is twice the concentration of beta-glucose, what is the value of K for the interconversion reaction?

Chemical Equilibrium I Part 1: You run the chemical reaction C(aq)+D(aq)2E(aq) at 25C. The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction at this temperature is 2.0. a Write the equilibrium-constant expression for the reaction. b Can you come up with some possible concentrations of C, D, and E that you might observe when the reaction has reached equilibrium at 25C? What are these values? c A student says that only a very limited number of concentrations for C, D, and E are possible at equilibrium. Is this true? State why you think this is true or is not true. d If you start with 1.0 M concentrations of both C and D and allow the reaction to come to equilibrium, would you expect the concentration of C to have decreased to zero? If not, what would you expect for the concentration of C? (An approximate value is fine.) Part 2: Consider the reaction A(aq)F(aq)+G(aq), whose equilibrium constant is 1.0 105 at 20C. For each of the situations described below, indicate whether any reaction occurs. If reaction does occur, then indicate the direction of that reaction and describe how the concentrations of A, B, F, and G change during this reaction. a A(aq) and B(aq) are mixed together in a container. b F(aq) and G(aq) are mixed together in a container. c A(aq) and F(aq) are mixed together in a container. d B(aq) and G(aq) are mixed together in a container. e Just B(aq) is placed into a container. f Just G(aq) is placed into a container.
