if the reaction given below occurs and pure A and B were mixed, which of the following would take place as equilibrium was established
A + B ⇌ C
a. the concentration of C would increase for a time, then remain constant
b. the concentration of A would increase for a time, then decrease
c. the concentration of B would increase for a time, then remain constant
discuss the following statement: “Whether the ΔG for a reaction is larger, smaller, or the same as ΔG° depends on the concentration of the compounds that participate in the reaction.”
Consider a transition of X → y. assume that the only difference between X and y is the presence of three hydrogen bonds in y that are absent in X. What is the ratio of X to y when the reaction is in equilibrium?

- Which of the following correctly explains why the vapor pressure of water has to be included in the calculations? Some of the liquid water evaporates into the gas, and increases the total pressure generated by the trapped gas. As the H2(g) is bubbled up the reaction solution, some of the H2(g) molecules are solubilized by water in the aqueous solution, effectively decreasing the measured pressure above. The pressure contributed by the H2(g) is greater than the measured total pressure because of the contribution of partial pressure of water vapor. The pressure exerted by the evolved H2(g) is reduced because of the co-presence of water vapor, thus Pwater vapor has to be added to Pdry gas.
