Chapter 14, Problem 14.2VP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The chemical equation for the reaction is to be written. The value of equilibrium constant $K_{\text{c}}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: In the chemical equation the reactants are given on left hand side of the reaction and the product is given on the right hand side of the reaction.

The division of the ratio of the concentration of product raised to suitable stoichiometric coefficient with the concentrations of the reactants raised to suitable stoichiometric coefficient is called equilibrium constant for a reaction.

To determine: The chemical equation for the reaction.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The value of $K_{\text{c}}$ is to be calculated.
