Chapter 13, Problem 13.83SP
In a basic aqueous solution, chloromethane undergoes a substitution reaction in which Cl– is replaced by OH–:
CH3Cl(aq) + OH–(aq) ⇌ CH3OH(aq) + Cl–(aq)
The equilibrium constant Kc is 1 × 1016. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of CH3Cl, CH3OH, OH–, and Cl– in a solution prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.1 M CH3Cl and 0.2 M NaOH. (Hint: In defining x, assume that the reaction goes 100% to completion, and then take account of a small amount of the reverse reaction.)
