Question

In aqueous solution initially prepared by mixing 225 g H2O (density is 1.0 g/mL), 0.3 M C, and 0.1 M A takes a few minutes to reach the equilibrium at 67°C. 2 reactions occur in series and exist at equilibrium as follows;
A (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ B (aq) + C (aq) K1 = 8.3 x 10-8
B (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ D (aq) + C (aq) K2 = 1.0 x 10-14
Determine mole fractions of A, B, C, and D at equilibrium
