- 7-29 The following reaction was allowed to reach equilibrium at 25°C. Under each component is its equilibrium concentration. Calculate the equilibrium constant, K, for this reaction.arrow_forward7-40 Is there any change in conditions that change the equilibrium constant, K, of a given reaction?arrow_forward7-71 You have a beaker that contains solid silver chloride (AgCl) and a saturated solution of Ag+ and CI- ions in equilibrium with the solid. You add several drops of a sodium chloride solution. What happens to the concentration of silver ions?arrow_forward
- 7-32 A particular reaction has an equilibrium constant of 1.13 under one set of conditions and an equilibrium constant of 1.72 under a different set of conditions. Which conditions would be more advantageous in an industrial process that sought to obtain the maximum amount of products? Explain.arrow_forward7-64 As we shall see in Chapter 20, there are two forms of glucose, designated alpha and betawhich are in equilibrium in aqueous solution. The equilibrium constant for the reaction is 1.5 at 30°C. (a) If you begin with a fresh 1.0 M solution of D-glucose in water, what will be its concentration when equilibrium is reached? (b) Calculate the percentage of glucose and of glucose present at equilibrium in aqueous solution at 30°C.arrow_forward7-41 The equilibrium constant at 1127°C for the following endothermic reaction is 571: If the mixture is at equilibrium, what happens to K if we: (a) Add some H2S? (b) Add some H2? (c) Lower the temperature to 1000°C?arrow_forward
- 7-28 When the following reaction reached equilibrium at 325 K, the equilibrium constant was found to be 172. When a sample was taken of the equilibrium mixture, it was found to contain 0.0714 M NO2. What was the equilibrium concentration of N2O4?arrow_forward7-57 Write the reaction to which the following equilibrium expression applies:arrow_forward. In general terms. what does the equilibrium constant for a reaction represent? What is the algebraic form of the equilibrium constant for a typical reaction? What do square brackets indicate when we write an equilibrium constant?arrow_forward
- 7-22 If you add a piece of marble, CaCO3 to a 6 M HCI solution at room temperature, you will see some bubbles form around the marble as gas slowly rises. If you crush another piece of marble and add it to the same solution at the same temperature, you will see vigorous gas formation, so much so that the solution appears to be boiling. Explain.arrow_forward7-36 Complete the following table showing the effects of changing reaction conditions on the equilibrium and value of the equilibrium constant, K. Change in Condition How the Reacting System Changes to Achieve a New Equilibrium Does the Value of K Increase or Decrease?
