General Chemistry 2: Chemical Equilibrium

A 1.9 L vessel contains a gaseous mixture with 0.455 mol SO2_2, 0.183 mol O2_2, and 0.568 mol SO3_3. Is the reaction at equilibrium? If not, what is the direction of the reaction?

2 SO2_2 + O2_2 \leftrightharpoons 2 SO3_3, KC_C = 280

A 1 L reaction vessel contains 2.5 mol A, 3 mol B, and initially 0 C. Find the concentrations of all species at equilibrium.

A + 2B \leftrightharpoons 3 C , KC_C = 0.25

0.20 M I2_2 is placed in a reaction vessel. Find the concentrations of I2_2 and I at equilibrium.

I2_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons 2 I (g) , KC_C = 3.8 x 105^{-5}

Starting with 0.50 M N2_2O4_4, calculate the equilbrium concentrations of all species involved in the reaction below.

N2_2O4_4 \leftrightharpoons 2 NO2_2 KC_C = 1.2

A 2.5 L reaction vessel contains 0.55 mol PCl5_5, 0.55 mol PCl3_3, and 0 mol Cl2_2. Find the molarity of Cl2_2 at equilibrium.

PCl5_5 \leftrightharpoons PCl3_3 + Cl2_2 , KC_C = 3.8 x 102^{-2}

0.800 moles of N2_2 (g) are placed in a 7.00 L flask with 3.00 moles of H2_2 and allowed to react for some time. After several hours the concentrations of H2_2 (g) is measured at 0.278 M. What is the equilibrium constant for the reaction at this temperature?

N2_2 (g) + 3 H2_2 (g) \leftrightharpoons 2 NH3_3 (g)

Predict the effect an increase in H2_2 would have on the following reaction. What if we increase the temperature? If we remove H2_2O?

CO (g) + H2_2O (g) \leftrightharpoons CO2_2 (g) + H2_2 (g) + heat, KC_C = 5.10
