In the text, the equation G=G+RTIn(Q) was derived for gaseous reactions where the quantities in Q were expressed in units of pressure. We also can use units of mol/L for the quantities in Q, specifical.ly for aqueous reactions. With this in mind, consider the reaction HF(aq)H+(aq)+F-(aq) for which Ka = 7.2 104 at 25C. Calculate G for the reaction under the following conditions at 25C. a. [HF] = [H+] = [F] = 1.0 M b. [HF] = 0.98 M, [H+] = [F] = 2.7 102M c. [HF] = [H+] = [F] = 1.0 105 M d. [HF] = [F] = 0.27 M, [H+] = 7.2 104M e. [HF] = 0.52 M, [F] = 0.67 M, [H+] = 1.0 103M Based on the calculated G values, in what direction will the reaction shift to reach equilibrium for each of the five sets of conditions?
