(a)
Interpretation:
The equilibrium constant expression for the reaction
Concept Introduction:
Equilibrium constant: At equilibrium the ratio of products to reactants (each raised to the power corresponding to its stoichiometric coefficient) has a constant value, K
For a general reaction,
The concentration of solids and pure liquids do not change, so their concentration terms are not included in the equilibrium constant expression.
(b)
Interpretation:
The equilibrium constant expression for the reaction

- Apatite, Ca5(PO4)3OH, is the mineral in teeth. On a chemical basis explain why drinking milk strengthens young children’s teeth. Sour milk contains lactic acid. Not removing sour milk from the teeth of young children can lead to tooth decay. Use chemical principles to explain why.arrow_forwardWhat is the equilibrium constant value for NaC2H3O2 and how do you find its Kb?arrow_forwardIf the value of K is 2.8 x 102 at 1000 K for the following reaction, what is the K value for the reverse reaction? 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) ↔ 2 SO3 (g) 2. If the K value for 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) ↔ 2 SO3 (g) is 2.8 x 102, what is the K value for the following reaction? 4 SO2 (g) + 2 O2 (g) ↔ 4 SO3 (g) 3. Calculate the value of K for the reaction: CaCO3 (s) + H+ (aq) ↔ Ca2+ (aq) + HCO3-1 (aq) 4. Given the following equilibrium constants: CaCO3 (s) ↔ Ca2+ (aq) + CO32- (aq) K1 = 10-6.3 HCO3- (aq) ↔ H+ (aq) + CO32- (aq) K2 = 10-10.3arrow_forward
