Help Equilibrium Problems
« on: March 12, 2008, 04:00:25 PM »
There is this problem and I dont know how to solve it, I have the answers I got, but can someone try this problem and tell me the answers they got before I turn in this practice test.Thanks


Consider the following reactions:  CO(g)+H_2O(g) <=> CO_2(g) +H_2(g).
K_c = 102 at 500k.
A reaction mixture initially contains 0.115 M CO and .115 M H_2O.

Find the equilibrium concentration for CO, H_2O, CO_2, H_2

If you do have the answers, you can check them by subbing back into the formula for the equilibruim constant.

You can sove this problem in moles. For concentration - volume is missing

Yes but moles is not given.

For concentration - volume is missing
The question gives initial concentrations.

Sorry, I did not notice capital M - when I hear contains - I think about moles, not concentrations.
For this eqution you can use moles, molar fraction, concentrations or partial pressures, and still result will be same since equilibrum constants for this reaction are the same.Write down expression for Kc.
This will be a quadratic equation
