Question 57 and 58: In Chapter 9, we discussed how to identify major and minor species and how to write net ionic equations. These skills are based on the solubility of ionic compounds, the strengths of acids, and the stability of certain ion combinations. Use these ideas to predict the favored direction of each equilibrium given. In each case, state whether you expect the equilibrium concentration to be large or small.

- For the equilibrium reaction in Question 4, write the expression for the equilibrium constant. (a) How would this equilibrium constant change if the total pressure on the system were doubled? (b) How would the equilibrium constant change if the temperature were increased?arrow_forwardDecomposition of ammonium dichromate is shown in the designated series of photos. In a closed container this process reaches an equilibrium state. Write a balanced chemical equation for the equilibrium reaction. How is the equilibrium affected if more ammonium dichromate is added to the equilibrium system? more water vapor is added? more chromium(III) oxide is added? Decomposition of ammonium dichromate, for Question 4. Decomposition of (NH4)2Cr2O7. Orange, solid (NH4)2Cr2O7 (a) can be ignited by lighting a wick (b), which initiates decomposition (c) forming Cr2O3, the dark green solid in part (d), N2 gas, and water vapor. Energy is transferred to the surroundings by the process.arrow_forwardThe gaseous reaction 2HBr(g)H2(g)+Br2(g) is endothermic. Tell which direction the equilibrium will shift for each of the following: a.Some H2 is added. b.The temperature is increased. c.Some Br2 is removed. d.A catalyst is added. e.Some HBr is removed. f.The temperature is decreased, and some HBr is removed.arrow_forward
- Which direction of the equilibrium 2NO2(g)N2O4(g)+59.0kJ will be favored if the system is cooled? Explain.arrow_forwardCalculate the equilibrium concentrations that result when 0.25 M O2 and 1.0 M HCl react and come to equilibrium. 4HCl(g)+O2(g)2Cl2+2H2O(g)Kc=3.11013arrow_forwardIn the figure, orange fish are placed in one aquarium and green fish in an adjoining aquarium. The two tanks are separated by a removable partition that is initially closed. (a) Describe what happens in the first few minutes after the partition is opened. (b) What would you expect to see several hours later? (c) How is this system analogous to dynamic chemical equilibrium?arrow_forward
